  • Terrellionaire Rell (@Terrellionaire) reported from Indianapolis, Indiana

    Awkward moment when the producers form iyanla fix my life wants to do a rushed Skype interview with me my sister and her kids father this week but I know he don’t wanna do it lmao

  • FashionMaven88 Mavelous (@FashionMaven88) reported from Jersey City, New Jersey

    @nehpazojArchieH Suzanne is stupid. The point is Harry went to the conference to work on solving the problem. You can’t do that via Skype. I’ve tried. The best ideation happens w everyone there together. Suzanne needs to direct this at W. Skype works if all you show up to do is wave.

    @JioCare I am desperate today very bad network service by Jio . I missed my skype interview just because of bad network......please fix it as soon as possible

  • Karina_Melbs PolarK (@Karina_Melbs) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @carlyfindlay @erinrileyau I have an ap on my phone called qoctor which is a service set up by doctors in Aus who will do a consultation via video Skype and provide a med cert. they are strict & refund fee if they do not believe you or they believe it's imperative you get to a medical centre instead.

  • mylifeisameh Cheap Queen (@mylifeisameh) reported from Manhattan, New York

    @TalktoBPI your customer service sucks. I’ve sent an email, tried calling your number, sent a message thru skype and messenger and still got nothing.

  • GeorgieSussex Καρμέλα Σοπράνο (@GeorgieSussex) reported from Worthing, England

    If you’re wondering why the younger, lower-paid colleagues you’ve treated like shit for years don’t seem to be responding to your demands for help on how to use Skype, it really isn’t because “the servers are busy”.

  • liljadeywadey Jade (@liljadeywadey) reported from Hitchin, England

    @gabyvparker I couldn’t do face to face but if they struggle to find someone I could potentially offer phone/Skype and reduce costs. It’s terrible that they’re having to self fund this. It’s crucial to the role

  • jessehouwing Jesse Houwing (@jessehouwing) reported from Utrecht, Provincie Utrecht

    Having to practice your remote practices is a key point I've come across with many clients. All kinds of gadgets and tools, but people just use it as an expensive Skype replacement. Digiboards -> big bumb screen Fancy room cams -> wall inspection unit Web cams -> nose pick help

  • ta_guapo 23 🐐 (@ta_guapo) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    Skype not working on my phone and im tryna leave the office for a second :/

  • cooljeanius Eric Gallager (エリック) (@cooljeanius) reported from Concord, New Hampshire

    @Weewoahwoo Well some other people I've seen on here have had therapists that will do therapy by Skype (or other videochat service) before for cases when they're stuck at home, at least...

  • vinny02126 vin mo (@vinny02126) reported from Tacoma, Washington

    Hello Twittersphere, can someone help me figure out how to do split screen video interviews on a laptop. Whether its Facebook, Skype or a half dozen other things, I can't figure it out. I haven't even started looking into the recording side of it.

  • maccoinnich MacKenzie was animated in his disapproval (@maccoinnich) reported from Portland, Oregon

    On Skype with my brother this afternoon. During the call my one year old niece wanders over to her toy box, picks out the present I gave her for Christmas and starts playing with it. That girl has a future in the diplomatic service if she wants one.

  • marktmaclean Mark Mac Lean (@marktmaclean) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    This is a leading story here in Australia as there are about 250 Australians on board. They managed to do some interviews with passengers via skype. Getting food distributed to passengers, who are asked to remain in their state rooms, appears to be one of the logistical problems.

  • PeterWheeldon Peter Wheeldon (@PeterWheeldon) reported from Bilsthorpe, England

    @hannahforest Thinking about it, they don't need to do it, they can have debates and questions on Skype. It'd be a problem for the media to cover them but I'm sure there're ways around that.

  • AdamShifriss Adam Shifriss (@AdamShifriss) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @econwonk @HorwitzGabe I agree. People have social needs that don’t get met when they are isolated. Facetime, Skype, etc.. can help but they cannot fully replace face to face.

  • dahowlett ⒹⒺⓃ•Ⓗ ㋡ (@dahowlett) reported from Wilsden, England

    @skaragiannis @LouisColumbus @jonerp @zoom_us @Skype To be clear. I asked Microsoft to solve @skype issues after they acquired. They begged me to be patient but they did jack shit. @zoom_us FTW.

  • Master_Cedric Cedric Raflores 🇨🇦🇵🇭 (@Master_Cedric) reported from Lampman, Saskatchewan

    Hi @TalktoBPI! I need to update my number and was trying to connect via skype but I couldnt find your two IDs. Please help. thanks!

  • LoganMaxwell1 Logan Maxwell (@LoganMaxwell1) reported from Council Bluffs, Iowa

    A4: we have NationL geographic Certified Educators, Gilder Lehrman attendees, and a SS inst. coach who is able to reach out. Usually we spend time sending emails to orgs to help out to use Google Hang Out or Skype to record sessions to play later in the day #iasocialstudies

  • sqlmal Mala Mahadevan (@sqlmal) reported from Morrisville, North Carolina

    @timweigel @_randolph_west @arrowdrive I have a paid Skype ac to help me call my phone to find it. That's it's only use. I've stressed multiple times on where the missed call is from.

  • nataliemj10 Natalie Jackson (@nataliemj10) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @gronke @decustecu @BrendanNyhan @kabir_here @rp_griffin @emilyekins @APSAtweets @BradSpahn @AdamBerinsky @prisonrodeo @KryshaGregorow1 @NonAcPhDs I currently have 3 dept skype talks on my schedule that I had no prior connection with via twitter outreach. APSA featuring such a panel in a big way at a special time would also be a huge help.

  • mlussich Marina Lussich (@mlussich) reported from Kensington, England

    @CraigBennett3 @FT @FinancialTimes Tried Lon-Gla @AvantiWestCoast train and really good, only issue was patchy signal for conf calls, and WiFi wasn’t good enough to support Skype calls. An airplane has zero signal. Door-to-door same time and less hassle than flying. Off-peak and bought ahead, cheaper than flying.

  • MorobadiK Morobadi (@MorobadiK) reported from Edenburg, Gauteng

    Their threats are idle. 3 friends left for UK past 2 years lol 🤣🤣🤣they Skype me daily about their ordeal. They could afford help (Black of course) now...they feel the way blacks feel in South Africa don't be moves when a white person say they going. They lying!

  • Patient_Leader Dominic Stenning #TeamPatient💚 (@Patient_Leader) reported from Peterborough, England

    @MedicineGovSte I will definitely be there but please please DM me or something as my memory is terrible and I can't miss another one. Oh and it would be great to Skype chat, was thinking we could group chat at some point too

  • saif_saifridha saif ridha (@saif_saifridha) reported from Brentford, England

  • petedroberts Cllr Pete Roberts 🔶 #FBPE (@petedroberts) reported from Rhayader, Wales

    @ElganHearnNews As to public access my initial thought is that the officer leading the Skype meeting could do so in the council chamber and use the Congress system to we cast the meeting. Creating a Skype login for the media may also be an option. This is the detail we need to work out.

  • HARJGTWO HARJGTWO (@HARJGTWO) reported from Vancouver, British Columbia

    @Microsoft @Skype @SkypeSupport @CIA @DHSgov @WhiteHouse SKYPE I am no longer going to reply to him as SKYOE has all the information from the two separate phone numbers thus two separate case numbers. Please remove him from file and fix problem ( texts blocked) #HGOHD #HARJGTWO

  • aaronashmore8 Aaron Ashmore (@aaronashmore8) reported from Coventry, England

    @totallykeen @ForcesRadioBFBS @WendyFaux @RadioToday @RadioChris01 @militarycowork @falklands_utd @FalklandsinUK @militarymums @youthcommradio @bbchw I made a similar decision 2 years ago. Best thing I ever did. I have endless anecdotes of why!! When things have settled down, would be great to skype or something!

  • chaterii Chat Lamorin, RN (@chaterii) reported from Cebu City, Central Visayas

    OMG I still have my Skype account. I thought already forgot my login details. I'm so happy! 😁

  • JuSummerhayes Julian Summerhayes Ⓥ (@JuSummerhayes) reported from South Brent, England

    @profcorts A really interesting question. I hope you get a decent response. If you fancied a Zoom or Skype call to discuss this or any other issue it would be great to further the connection.

  • matenendez Nate (@matenendez) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    Sometimes I just wish I could block my coworkers on Skype for Business.. so I don't have to deal with their stupid problems.
