The workaround that I discovered, and which would probably work for your situation is to sign up for the "Business Control Panel"; you can still pay with by your credit card, but the credit can flow to as many accounts as you are willing to attach as "employees". (I have no affiliation with Skype; happen to love the service; also dislike their messy payment arrangements.)

Aside of illustrating how (at least some) organisations are using Web 2.0 efficiently, it also lays bare how enthusiastic CRM and KYC enforcement can create problems for the consumer. I read your blog off and on, but this one truly encouraged me to de-lurk and comment. Thanks for sharing this. Adriana
