I cannot make payments to them from my credit card about a half of month.
Today I find in their FAQ that one of possible causes of that is "Using
an anonymous proxy to access the internet".

Could this be because the exit node you are using is not located in the same country where your credit card is registered and so Skype are deploying their anti-fraud system?
  (Their technical support
could not inform me about concret causes of that problem).
It seems as a next step of attack of anonymity enemies against making
payments with using the Tor.
