  @Skype hi I'm trying to use your service for the first time. I need to make a call from Asia to UK. When I add UK monthly subscription I do not get asked for payment it just displays the options again. I've tried 20 times I can't buy. Please help need to make urgent call. Thanks

  @Skype You need to fix your ios app! The give feedback button wont even work. I am deleting Skype for now. Spam has gone rampant on there the last few days and there is no report as spam button just leave group.

  @Skype is charging me $3.49 over and over again for a service I’m not able to use through @Apple subscriptions. Everytime I try to cancel they charge me again. Please fix this.

  @Skype I have the translator turned on and it's only working for the other person. The notifications appear in English but the actual conversation is showing the original language. How do I fix this?

  @Microsoft @Skype Why are you making it impossible to access my skype credit now that skype has been retired? By making it impossible to move or access my credit balance or to get support about this, you are essentially stealing from me. Since you closed down Skype and Skype Manager, you should automatically refund all unused Skype credit to the manager or user who purchased the credit. Why do the richest and biggest tech companies always have the worst customer support? Stop being evil and stop robbing people!

  @skype Is anyone else having trouble with these thieves? Confuse you over subscriptions vs. auto renew then keep taking money even though auto-renew is not enabled.

  @Bangkok__Mike @Skype I have used Yolla, reliable but not as cheap as Skype. My default if I have a problem is to use 00X prefix from AIS my provider. 003, 007, 008 etc I search to see which is the cheapest. I believe all networks have a prefix internet call option.

  @Skype I purchased a Skype number but have been getting calls from the old adverts of the previous number owner. It's been a constant pain and I'm unable to use this number for my business! I can't seem to get anyone for months via help!?! What can I do?

  @Skype Why can I not use any of @surfshark VPN anymore with your service..? Both work fine on their own.. Please tell me how to amend this. I have tried every location possible on the VPN service and I cannot make any calls whatsoever

  When your job uses both @Skype and @MicrosoftTeams it's a lot like when you change cable companies and the new company literally rips out any of the old existing connections just to make the other company's life hell if they ever have to hook up service again. #GetYourOwnSandbox

  Let it be known: someone steals your account with @Skype, changed the email so you can’t access it, @Microsoft won’t help you. You need access to the account or have to fill out forms that go nowhere. If anyone knows how to uncover cr*****@emlpro.com send it my way. I wanna sue.

  They never give you a phone number for customer service and they don’t help anyone. The lazy customer service just locks the accounts to avoid doing any work. I was using @Skype paid services & now you won’t get a penny out of me. @Microsoft if you give a damn, @SkypeSupport
