Skype to Go Expands to All Paid Users

Skype has expanded its Skype to Go service to all paying users. Skype to Go allows you to make Skype calls from any phone, landline or mobile. Previously, you had to be a member of one of Skype's subscription plans, but now you can get a Skype to Go number if you have any Skype Credit.

How does it work?

1. You call your Skype To Go number from any phone.
2. You hear a menu that lets you choose one of your pre-saved speed dial contacts, or dial any other number.
3. You reach your contact wherever they are in the world and save a bundle on call costs.

This is a great addition to those not using one of the subscription plans, but it reduces the value of their subscriptions.

Of course, you may not know you don't need a subscription if you're currently looking at their site and not looking specifically at the Skype to Go section. If you look at their pricing section they still haven't updated the page; it says you need a subscription to get Skype to Go.
