    Quick one, is this possible.

    A company has a "Skype me" button on their site and when a user clicks on it it calls the company through skype free for them, but the call is routed to a landline number and the company pays the skype to landline charge.

    In other words can a company with a phone system without going the sip gateway route can allow users to call them for free through skype but the call is routed to their main number and they pay the charge for the skype to their landline?

    That sounds like the receiving Skyper forwarding the calls to a landline ....... which as far as I know is a service they provide.

    Well yeah. It's call forwarding from Skype itself ;-)
