Skype phases out credits and phone numbers
Briefly

We have just received new information from Microsoft. Skype has stopped purchase of Skype Credit for all users. The only option available now are monthly calling subscriptions.
Unless they decide to add an ongoing SMS texting subscription, you will no longer be able to send outbound SMS texts from Skype.
Microsoft confirmed the changes, saying the company continuously evaluates product strategy based on customer usage and needs.
Existing Skype numbers will still work and existing credit can still be used, but once you're out of credits, that's it.
