    Hi PreetKK

    As with any Skype promotion, when they say 120 minutes what they mean is 120 minutes at the basic Skype cost of £0.012 per minute excluding VAT. For this promotion the voucher has a value of 120 x £0.012 = £1.44. So even though they are saying 120 free minutes, at the basic Skype rate of £0.014 per minute including VAT, you can actually only make 102.8 minutes of calls.

    In the case you raised for Hungary, at the rate of £0.02 per minute for land line and £0.143 per minute to mobiles, that would give you 72 minutes to a landline or 10 minutes to a mobile.
