one bit of advice would be to refrain from telling GTL or the prison, or write about it being a Skype number to your PP because it might not be allowed. I don't know what Skype have done to their service but they haven't improved it. My PP recently told me that sometimes when he rings the number it asks him to push a number (0-9) to connect the call but it doesn't do anything and I don't get a call, then it just hangs up. Unfortunately I don't have a definitive answer for you but Skype numbers are considered third party numbers and many prisons don't allow the use of third party phone numbers. After I read your post, I called my own number and it rung through fine, and received a notification that I had missed a call.

The fact you can't even call your own number is odd. Since I have got one this year again, I have had several problems pop up. Back when I had my Skype number 4 years ago, there was no problems with it.
