I can't make a call using skype to go number

when I dial it - there is voice message saying - "the number is vacant, please call your own directory inquire service for further information".

what I am doing wrong? How should I use it? Should I call it through the country code or plain?

Please use plain text.

Hello,

You must always prefix your dial string with the international country access code (+1 for USA, +44 for UK etc.).

Re: I can't make a call using skype to go number

I can't make a call with Skype to go number either. Said it didnt recognize number, then began an authentication process whereby I enter my cell number with area code then my pin. Didn't recognize my pin so I set up a new pin. Still didn't recognize pin. Does the person I'm calling have to be online with Skype for call to go through. I used to be able to just call the cell number
