You have to be on the "Plus" I think its called level to not get a whole bunch of filtering.
Or use a vpn

I have no problem Skype calling (video or talk) on T-mobile UK and I do not have 'plus'. SIP calling however requires VPN magic as that is blocked...

I have never made a skype call, However I have had skype contacts call me, and it connects fine. They all connected from skype on Pc's, skype to skype.
As a caveat to that, all my skype usage is on wifi. Given the N900 takes ages connecting me to web 'n' walk (Minutes of time is wasted while it connects and longer to do anything online) I tend to use Wifi to browse and that might be a reason. By not going web'n'walk I am escaping the evil clutches of T-mobile and their IT services.
Hope that helps.

I spoke to someone once but that was with a different sim and account, I only succeeding in running rings around them when asking about which ports and traffic they blocked and I didnt get any real answers. I have had several different SIMs and accounts with t mobile since getting my N900 and skype has always worked for me over 3G.
I also run over my data limit monthly (sometimes quite severely) and no one has ever said anything to me and I have never been charged extra.
I would love to have easy access to FTP ports, I would give up skype for that anyday though i draw the line at paying for 'plus'.
wnw connects quickly for me too and serves my needs pretty adequately.

That makes me slightly paranoid!
