Skype? Does anyone use it instead of a landline? - 25th Jan 2009 5:55pm
Hi
I was wondering if anyone else uses Skype for incoming as well as outgoing calls.
And if so do you use just a handset with your PC (PC needs to be on) or do you have a wifi phone (no PC needed)?
Trying to figure out whether to ditch the landline. Have just got subscription for UK unlimited calls (£1.95) and £10 of Pay As You Go (for 0845 numbers etc).
If you use it do you give people your Skype number or your mobile as main number?
Thinking of doing that you see and also the Skype for leaving voicemails if needed. PC is on most of the time when we are here so would make sense to have SKype and if emergency we could use mobile (Skype won't dial 999), or people can contact us on mobile.
Maybe I should do a review of what happens after a month. I've learn a lot about SKype today - never even knew you could have an incoming number.
Anyway - if you've already been there please let me know if its worth it!
