I get an error message of "Call – you currently can’t call this number on Skype" after it rings once.

I double checked and I'm able to call other 800 numbers with Skype just fine, so there's nothing blocked on my end. Anyone successfully call the reservation number via Skype lately?

Edit: I was able to get through using the Skype app on my Android phone, but not the app on my Mac or on my wife's laptop. Mysterious...
Not sure about that specific #, but no problem calling the Exec Plat 800 number from HKG just now via Skype on an iPhone.
