MacAssist Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 i am seeking help with the issue of text messages being sent to my Skype U.S. phone number so I can see those texts here in Panama. Does anyone else pay for Skype credits to use the feature where you get a U.S. phone number? This works perfectly for people calling me but I am unable to receive text messages from them. They don't have a Skype account. not even a smart phone. They can send a simple text, but somehow Skype is not sending them to my iPhone here in Boquete. Thanks. prefer to call me or email, no problem...6808-2061. i also use whatsapp. how611@gmail to reach me that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyS Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 You could try activating Skype call forwarding (Tools/Options/Calls/Call Forwarding). When they call your U.S. phone number, it would forward to your smart phone. I know this works for calls. I have never tried it with text, but it should work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
