Robbie Ellis (@ellisrobbie) reportedOnce upon a time, @Skype would just keep your paid credit for years. It would just work. Now they say "We're going to turn it inactive after 180 days and make you jump through hoops to reactivate it and oh yeah our credit systems are down so we can't reactivate it right now." BOO

David Pitcher (@Boriga6) reported@Bangkok__Mike @Skype I have used Yolla, reliable but not as cheap as Skype. My default if I have a problem is to use 00X prefix from AIS my provider. 003, 007, 008 etc I search to see which is the cheapest. I believe all networks have a prefix internet call option.
