Just came across this offer. Trial Pay is offering 12 months of Skype out calls to US and Canada when you fulfill any one of the offers. I just signed up the trial Credit Score checking, need to cancel it within 7 days, and voila!! you get the unlimited Skype call instantly.
Not a bad deal at all. I've gone through TrialPay to get software such as Foxit PDF Reader (I mainly wanted to help the creators of Foxit Software) for free and didn't have any problems whatsoever. Darn, if this were Unlimited World (say, for three or six months), I'd definitely do it.
Bit of additional information: The regular price for the Skype US & Canada is $29.50 for a year. Not too shabby of a deal.
Skype has been working very well for us. Daughter uses it to call us in Florida from central China where she is spending a month teaching this summer. Her cell phone works from there - Verizon - but that's $1.99/min versus the $3/mo she pays for using Skype to call anywhere in the U.S. No issues with the quality of the calls.

Thanks! This will work great on my Skype Iphone APP
I did the credit one too. Quick and easy...free phone service. NICE. Now I just have to figure out how to cancel this credit monitoring service.

Page loading seems frozen even when can get to Contact page. 1-2-3 Trial links fail. Contact info seemed to be taken tho. Later couldn't even load that page. If do get it to work, hope the cancel of credit check works. Credit is nothing to mess with these days. hmm Finally got thru. But at end of sign up the Credit thingie says something about it can't be offered to New York State people due to regs. Think that's about this CreditCheck Guarantee thing so that's end of that. Back to my free 15 mins to anywhere on ad-sponsored http://callingamerica.com/
Just finished it and they gave me a voucher that I plugged in. The purchase comes up as "Skype Unlimited Calling (US and Canada), Voucher." Thanks OP.
Question: I previously had the US/Canada subscription plan for $2.95/mo. I use Skype To Go and the calls to the US are free. Does anyone know if with this non-subscription voucher if I will still be able to use Skype To Go for free calls within the US? I've asked Skype but getting a straight answer back from them is like spitting in the wind.
The Go Daddy offer might appeal to those who don't want to mess with cancelling a free trial but were planning to purchase a domain name or to transfer one. Purchase a domain name, hosting, or other paid Go Daddy service and spend at least $5.00. New dot COMs are $9.99. Transfered dot COMs are $6.99.
I did see the link in Skype yesterday but didn't follow through. I did setup Google Voice + Gizmo for my dad, but it is a bit 2-step for him... and I've always kept them on paid Skype. Good idea probably to move them to a free 1 yr
I assume this TrialPay requires a CC. And those worried about canceling and or recurring billing. Why not use a 1 time PP secure card? I use them for just about everything now. Btw they're FREE.
I had signed up for MyPrivacy which confirms instantly. After validating voucher in my Skype account, I was easily able to cancel MyPrivacy subscription. It took me less than 2 min. to send an email to cancel account at cancel@reputationdefender.com. and now, I am gonna enjoy free Skype calls for a year.
dont know why i cant see any of the promos you guys are signing up for.. i only see a list of 17 offers with none of the trial credit-monitoring or GoDaddy offers..

Thanks again OP.
So if there's a voucher, can you use this to 'add' a year to your existing Skype subscription? Or what happens if you're already a paying Skype user?
Thanks OP! I've been paying $2.95 a month for Skype anyway.

What if I paid for a year already? Will this just extend the subscription for one more year from the date my current plan ends?

I completed the credit monitoring services 7 day trial. Still didn't get the confirmation about Skype free service. How long does it take to get email? Do I need to signup for trial pay before going for the offer?

Did complete the free 7 day credit monitoring offer. Still didn't get the Skype free calling offer.
I did the trial for free credit report with Credit Check. Did not get instant confirmation. Not sure if we were supposed to create a TrialPay account first before going through with the offer?
I signed up for a TrialPay account after completing the offer, to see if I can check on the status that way, and nothing showed on my account. Did not see anything related to the Skype offer either.

Free credit report was an instant confirmation. The trial pay page where you clicked on "continue to Offer" or something, should have shown the 'CHECK OFFER STATUS YES/NO" question. Once you completed the offer, you need to come back to the TrailPay window, and clicked on YES, it would show instant validation, and provide you with the Skype voucher code. Not sure if you closed the trial pay page when the new window for the credit report popped up.

So, I owe a coffee from all who have got the voucher
I also was not able to get the Skype voucher after completing the MyPrivacy offer. The offer remains "pending" after two days. Am I missing something?
UPDATE: Just received my voucher for 12 months of 'North America Unlimited' after a manual override from a TrialPay CSR. Everything works great; although the email I received indicated that Trialpay may permanently suspend you from using their services if you immediately cancel your trial offer (MyPrivacy, etc.) as it is viewed as "fraudulent activity."
It appears that Trialpay quite often change what offers are available. I was not offered CreditCheck first time but MyPrivacy was available. Second time (with different email), I was offered CreditCheck but not MyPrivacy.
Both times, i instantly received code after completing offers.

is anyone else just getting offers for a really expensive "outlet" store (min $25 items) or software based in singapore (who has a terrible track record for issuing refunds via fax/snail mail only)?
Update: yeah- if your ISP is outside the US they give you crappy offers, but if you proxy through the US all the good deals pop up
