How long does it take for my online number to become active?
Hi, I signed up for an online number.
When I go to "setup online number" in my control panel, I see the number I signed up for under reserved numbers, like this:
Number Location Reserved for Status
(503) 616-4480 United States, (503) | Beaverton 15 days Processing
It's been this way for several days (been counting down from 19 days. Will it be another 2 weeks before my number becomes available?

Inappropriate?Depending on how you paid for your online number, it can take a while for that payment to be processed – you can find out processing time estimates on the Skype website.
However, if the suggested time has elapsed, please give me a shout and I’ll investigate. -
Inappropriate?Looking at this further, I am finding that the number is reserved, but I have not paid yet. I have the option of paying for the subscription to the online number service. I have to drill-down through about 3 pages to get there, and thought I remembered going through a process to purchase the new service, so that's why I was confused.
I would suggest to make the action associated with hyperlinks on these account pages clearer, and to reduce the depth of pages the user must go through to complete actions.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Sorry you found it confusing – I’ll pass that feedback on to the team who’re responsible for the Account section of the site.
