Skype Voicemail Sometimes talking on Skype isn't possible when the person you’re trying to call is offline. That’s why we have Skype Voicemail. For a small fee, you can pick up messages when you’re away or busy on another call and you can keep the messages for as long as you like. Please note that Skype Voicemail only works on HGC-Skype v1.2. If you subscribe SkypeIn via this web site, you will also get a free Skype Voicemail for a specified period.
