    @Skype Fix your app It always freezes and turns the video off and it angers the hell out of me so fix it

  • servalpaul Paul Gardner-Stephen (@servalpaul) reported

    @UnitZee Well, its probably not impossible if you are happy to have separate email accounts for everyone. But I already have to monitor too many. And besides, minecraft wasn't broken. It's just #microsoft "microsofting" yet another acquisition. @skype used to be good until MS ruined it.

  • logan_severance Logan (@logan_severance) reported

    @discord has gone down twice in the last month while I’m in a meeting. I think I’m gonna have to switch to @Skype or @teamspeak.

  • Micc1983 Alessandro Benoit 🌎 (@Micc1983) reported

    Not reassuring that the camera led on my Dell XPS stays on after a @skype call is closed. Had to manually kill the 'Service Host: Windows Camera Frame Server' process to turn it off.

    @tagging not working in skype mobile app in Ios devices. Anyone facing the same ? @Skype @Apple #ios #skype

  • ilysuiteheart illy (@ilysuiteheart) reported

    It reminds me of back in the day when @Skype would just freely give your ip, and give your premium account away to any random who called customer service with a sob story. These companies need to start being held to a higher standard.

  • GMifren Guy Mifren (@GMifren) reported

    .@Skype We just recorded 2 hours worth of incredibly insightful material and there is NOTHING there. Would LOVE an explanation, or better yet, a fix.

  • FMradioAlex Alex Haig (@FMradioAlex) reported

  • robertoaherrera Roberto A. Herrera (@robertoaherrera) reported

  • 1CaroleBell Carole Bell (@1CaroleBell) reported

    @Skype What will it take to be put in touch with a customer service rep? I've just wasted 25 minutes with your chat people, who were not helpful.

  • MKarwande Mahesh Karwande (@MKarwande) reported

    @Skype 2/3 sending any type of files is very good that not changing content nor compressing it reducing quality of file. edit message feature is very best. animated emoji is one advantage like bowing down emoji, dancing granny, shake hand etc..

  • CarolinaSiccar2 Carolina Siccardi (@CarolinaSiccar2) reported

    @skype When someone shares their screen with me all it shows is a black screen. I’ve tired it in multiple devices and it doesn’t work. I need to fix it asap as I use it for my job. Thanks!

  • isi_beech Rajeev (@isi_beech) reported

    @Skype messages are not syncing properly and in real time on Windows 11. This is causing great difficulty because I am forced to type replies from my phone. Can you fix this asap?

  • AdriOrt99 Adr (@AdriOrt99) reported

    @Skype Hi, my Instagram account was disabled, I can't get into it. At no time violate any community norm. I can't fill out any form because it asks me to confirm my account to request a review but as I told you before I can't access it. I hope you can help me

  • jacobwyn29 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗼𝗯 (@jacobwyn29) reported

    @Skype @SkypeSupport what is the point in sending you feedback after each call? Nothing EVER changes. Have the same issues with calls every single time!

    @Microsoft @Skype , I recommend everyone avoid giving Skype your credit card. You will have to cancel your card. No support to resolve issues besides a forum. 👎

  • Kofibangood Kofi1z (@Kofibangood) reported

    @Skype i'm not able to log in on skype..it giving me login errors

  • MatthiabDewi Matthi ab Dewi (@MatthiabDewi) reported

    @SkypeSupport I need help (the support bot is useless) and the only contact I want to speak to ever cannot see me online and I cannot see them online. We know we are both online as it is possible to hold a meeting together. Somehow a @Skype fault is keeping me from my mother!

  • mandootime Mandoo doo time (@mandootime) reported

    @Skype @Microsoft I love how my Skype gets hacked and no one can help. The art of customer support is dead.

  • wrightramsey Libby Airspinner 🔞 (@wrightramsey) reported

    Hate to be controversial, but I have to do this poll to see which chat service Is more secure to folks. @Discord : scammers can impersonate officials and fake links @Telegram : ? @Skype : fake links and impersonation Any others put in comments

  • ToyyibsYard Toyyib AbdulGaneey (@ToyyibsYard) reported

    Then, do better than what the competitors are doing And make sure it's solving the problem the consumers are going through This is what great businesses always use to penetrate and disrupt super-competitive markets Businesses like @netflix @Skype and many others

  • Detexki99 Detexki99 (@Detexki99) reported

    @skype I have a question, what do you have for the new update, it should not work camera button; you have to fix it on skype. Why can't you fix?

  • Shoseki Craig Moore (@Shoseki) reported

    Really @Skype ? You just conned me out of £10 because you "deactivated" my balance without informing me, so I go and put more on assuming that I'd run out, then wait until *after* I pay to tell me about my deactivated balance? Terrible business practice. #darkpatterns
