I've being trying to use Skype (version 6.9.0.106) to make a Brazilian tollfree call but it is unable to complete since Skype prepends Brazilian country code to the dialed number.

I'm dialing 0800 015 0252 and as I'm in Brazil the Brazilian flag is auto-selected. When I press the Call button Skype removes the first 0 and replaces it by +55

The final number is +55800 015 0252 which is not a valid number therefore the call is not completed.

How can I overcame this?

  • I was sure it just worked, I remember setting my Skype account to USA once so I could call the Blizzard Support Desk without having to pay an international charge by calling from New Zealand. From what I remember it just let me call it no problem. Perhaps they've changed the policy? Oct 25, 2013 at 11:08

Currently they only support Tollfree calls to these regions:

France: +33 800, +33 805, +33 809
Poland: +48 800
UK: +44 500, +44 800, +44 808
USA: +1 800, +1 866, +1 877, +1 888
Taiwan: +886 80

How do I dial toll free numbers (for example, +1 800, +1 866 and +1 877 number series)?
