    Anyone any recommendations for getting an international number (USA specifically) & redirecting it to their Irish based mobile ?

    Not sure if Skype is a possibility.

    If you're redirecting it to your Irish mobile number rather than Skype on your mobile it will cost you more though.

    Thanks Graham. That's exactly what I need.

    Was thinking of Goldfish, but they only do the Irish numbers whereas Skype can do more than one number redirected.

    Hi,

    The GoldFish.ie website states they can supply numbers for international cities.

    I've no experience using skype numbers, but as a long time Goldfish customer I've had no major issues with them. When I've had questions their support has always been A1. It's great to call and speak with a real person without having to going through needless press 1, 2, 3.... options.

    Best of luck.

    I did use them before for something else & it ended badly.

    They overcharged my by two months even though I'd cancelled, I asked them for a refund & they wouldn't and were segueing over €9. It wasn't worth my time to argue, but was obviously worth theirs.

    Was it resolved?

    Hi OU812, there's some options offered by Blueface although a bit hidden on the website: http://www.blueface.ie/virtual-numbers.php
    It would be a €12 set-up and €10 charge per month.
    You'd also have the fee per call then on-top.
