Why are my Skype calls being flagged as spam?

I use Skype to make work calls because my mobile reception at home doesn't work well (and I need to record the calls, and Skype works well for that). Recently, several people have mentioned that my number shows up as "potential spam" in their caller ID.

I have my number connected to Skype and verified. I've had the number myself for more than a decade. I don't think it's happening when I make calls directly through my phone, but I'm not sure. I see it on my phone if I try calling my own number through Skype. When I call some numbers, it seems to be automatically rejected (a few people have told me that their phones don't ring when I'm trying to call them for a scheduled meeting). To be clear, I'm not spamming anyone. I make a handful of calls every day. It seems like a Skype problem, but do I need to call the phone carriers to somehow get my number taken off a list? What else can I do?
