  • jmwagss Jwags (@jmwagss) reported

    @jocelyn90028 @Skype I worked in the telecommunications industry for 32+ years help building the core infrastructure of the wireline & wireless networks. There is ZERO connection between 5G and any Covid outbreak. Utter non sense and pure genuine Bullshit!

    Im a nonthreatening feminist boy, come talk to me on Skype! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘systematic’ means.

  • End_TheFederalR ƖԼԼƲMƖƝƛƬƖ👁ƘƖԼԼЄƦ (@End_TheFederalR) reported

    @DarrylBirt Was management's idea to help stop the spread. They now realize it works out better this way and it's cheaper. Most patient concerns or exchanges are usually done via phone anyway. They use Skype too.. had online visit myself this year.

  • JaeHeartbreak Heartbreak_jae (@JaeHeartbreak) reported

    @ATT @ATTHelp Finally get time off work in months, thanks to the holiday; and this happens. Can’t talk to family and friends, Skype or FaceTime, txt or call. I know it’s not @ATT fault but there should be something in place where we don’t lose our service’s I’m completely fed up

  • tmx331 nobod3 (@tmx331) reported

    My ex told me and his mom over Skype hey in 6 weeks I’m coming down and we are going to get married ... we got married in the damn back yard with none of my family there because why my roommate told my mom first and they didn’t want me getting married

  • Givemeabreak305 Bigmamma (@Givemeabreak305) reported

    @Slate The voice often does not work during most of call and when you call the providers to complain it takes 30+ mins to get them to pick up! If you are on a pay per min phone plan it is not worth asking for a refund. They make money for no service! Skype would be better and cheaper.

  • NinaBina4Peace Nina Bina (@NinaBina4Peace) reported

    @OperativeXRay As a Nashvillian, I thank you. We are having more problems than most know. No cell phone service. No 911. Internet disrupted. Some Credit card machines disrupted. I have bought Skype...yes, Skype, in case of emergency or to call family not on call apps. It’s affecting many places

  • valkyree_jainex Valkyree Jaine 🍐✨ (@valkyree_jainex) reported

    I’m still having issues with my stream so I won’t be on cam tonight. Email me for Skype!

  • ToriJane2018 🧬tori elaine💜 (@ToriJane2018) reported

    @lucy_dre Jordan was TERRIBLE. She would Skype me just to keep from having to go to bed with him. Also one day she called me scared bc Jordan and his friend barged in her house while Isaac was in the tub and was screaming at her.

  • MrDNA007 Danny 🇧🇩 (@MrDNA007) reported

    @anchor @Draco_Evolve Thank you for the help. We used Skype instead and I reported the issue to Anchor Support. However, now it is not converting my Skype video to audio for Anchor, it just shows “extracting audio from video” on the Anchor editing screen then it disappears. Any idea why?

  • Footlovemassage AngelFLM🦶🏻💜💆🏻‍♀️ (@Footlovemassage) reported

    As of now I’m not doing Skype sessions due to internet issues. I plan on still selling video clips. So make requests for the clips. $10 per video unless you make a lot of requests then we may have additional fees.

    I need to have (print/download) a call history for just one client. I have asked @SkypeSupport 3 times for help and no reply. Can someone please send me a DM telling me the steps I need to do to achieve this. Thanking the world.

    Professor N Mahao @ProfMahao there is an organization that is looking for someone with factual recollection of how parts of present day Kingdom of Lesotho was conquered. Would you have any problem to do the interview with them over Skype? @LetlapaMphahlel

  • esistnotiert Es Ist Notiert (@esistnotiert) reported

    It completely turned my life upside down Which they also made sure happened literally during a skype chat with one of my professors My photo was shown upside down, I didn’t know it then, but it was to illustrate the esoteric hanged man There’s some kind of cult involved

  • ajmetz aj metz (@ajmetz) reported

    @hnshah Skype on OSX 10.9.5... APPLE+Q won't quit, CTRL+F2 won't access the menu. Quick preview of an image with spacebar in the "Open" dialog box when adding images to a conversation, results in the box losing focus. Option to remember your login, never remembers it. I could go on...

  • cherrysag25 Cherry Vercher (@cherrysag25) reported

    @CadeRageous @DivyanshPandey_ Instgram is hard for me to get rid of. I was thinking about buying one of those photo album booklets that, they advertise on there, and then close my account down,but I'm too addicted lol. I don't like Whatsapp/Snapchat/Zoom/Tiktok/Skype anything live.

  • KaylaNicole9991 Kayla Nicole 999 (@KaylaNicole9991) reported

    Skype sessions are ALWAYS 80 tokens/minute. This is the cost of a “true private” on MFC. I will not negotiate. If you can’t pay me with tokens and schedule on MFC, again, that’s not my problem.
