Itzel Alcaraz (@Luniitzy) reported@Skype Hi, I have trouble viewing received messages. Can u help me?
-
Onne Vegter (@OnneVegter) reported@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!

Haley Schuler-McCoin (@mccoin_haley) reported@Skype I paid for a Microsoft teams service so I could keep my Skype number, but then wasn't able to use it because I am not a business owner. I've been charged for 5 months and Microsoft has now refused my request for a refund. Is this really how Microsoft treats its users?

Roma.Viaggio (@sweetylem) reported@Aviva_Tabachnik @Skype @Microsoft Did you get any help? I even made another account and they locked that one too!
-
Mike Raymond (@mikeofkorea) reportedNo idea why, but all my contacts on @Skype disappeared. How on earth?? I need a snowplow service, but I never memorized that couple's number. What a bother. Once a year number, you know. Skype is sometimes more trouble than it's worth.
