SMS identification number does not work

[fellowlondoner]

Hello,

I've verified my mobile number to be displayed when sending SMS messages from Skype. I followed the instructions, received a 10-letter code, and entered it into the system.

However, when I test this, a 5-digit number appears as the sender instead of a mobile number.

How do I fix this?

Thanks.

I tried switching the settings back so my skype name appears when sending a text, that didn't work either and I still get the 5-digit number as the caller ID.

I'm having the same problem. It shows it as Fr:***-** (three numbers (dash) two numbers)
