with a Skype ID (see Contacts). Calls to other Skype users are free of charge.

conference call from your phone.

appears.

Use Skype to dial an international number
If you set up a Skype account on your phone (see Sign in to or create a
Skype account), you can use Skype to make international calls. The numbers
you call do not need to be associated with a contact.
You can choose to use Skype for all international calls, or to be prompted
whether to use Skype or your Verizon Wireless account for a given call (see
Set your international dialing method).
Calls to international numbers are subject to Skype charges and require a
Skype credit balance.
