The OP was wanting to use Skype to access a 'personal' number. These
can be very expensive to call. He wanted Skype to get a free call to
this number destination.
I can see why you are recommending Betamax as my first thought, when
anyone mentions Skype, is why bother with that? However, it does have
its occasional uses and, as an alternative access, this is one of
them.
