I have been trying to contact the Skype team for the following query since yesterday and have had no luck so far, so I am reaching out to you hoping that I won’t be disappointed here.

I have an existing US number (+16822562506) with Sprint that I would like to use with Skype. I want the numbers that I call in the North America region from the Skype App to receive the call from this same number and when they give me a call back I can answer the calls through Skype. I would also like to mention that I would be terminating the plan with Sprint and that is the reason for using Skype as the primary app to receive and make phone calls.

I look forward to hearing from you.

    Hi @Viren Katariya ,

    What is your product? Skype or Skype for Business?

    Do you mean you want to transfer old phone number to Skype for Business?

    Based on my knowledge, you can create a port order and transfer your phone number to Skype for Business. The following link shows detailed steps for your reference:
