  • hannahgreich Hannah Reich (@hannahgreich) reported from Park Forest Village, Pennsylvania

    I’ve been holding back my opinions on how the ICRS society operates & lack of student support. Just finished a 2 hr Skype call w/ @PavonaDetective about articulating these issues. We’re fired up! 🌍 🔥 🌎 🔥 🌏 & now I will return to coding in my pajamas #RoadToPhDone

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan Phillips (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia To repeat, your service drops for a few minutes a day. By the time I check, it’s back. It absolutely frustrates me. On Tuesday, 4mins *just as I needed to start a Skype w a customer*. > 2

  • DanielM57077810 Daniel Murphy (@DanielM57077810) reported from Workington, England

    @SkypeSupport I am unable to use the dictation feature with Skype. But because it keeps cutting me off when I try to use it and it’s not allowing me to use it properly. Because I think there is an issue with it.#Issue.

  • Freak4Tech Pankaj Kapoor (@Freak4Tech) reported from Gottigere, State of Karnataka

    @drjamit Used it for few hours today. Used mainly for Skype calls on PC and mobile calls. Worked perfectly fine and people on other end didn’t have any issue with call quality.

    My favorite memory from when I was applying for jobs in 2018 was when I thought I had a phone interview but it was really a Skype interview. I was wearing pajamas and looked terrible. Granted to say I didn’t get that job 😂

  • jonvludwig /jvl (@jonvludwig) reported from Lost Creek, Texas

    @googlenesthelp I see that @googlenesthelp follows the same strategy as their toll free number. Initially the appearance of trying to helpful with zero follow through. Guess it’s gone the way of esteemed acquisitions like MS/Skype where a good product/service is ruined by terrible outsourcing

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • thinaar Aaron Landsman (@thinaar) reported from Manhattan, New York

    I have three Zoom/Skype meetings today with three cities, in two countries, about three projects. On one hand I’m #blessed but also I can’t tell if what I’m coming down with is a cold or split personality disorder.

  • danahlatonio Danah 🦄🌹 (@danahlatonio) reported from Mandaue City, Central Visayas

    Done with skype call with boss now time to make my mind shut down as soon as possible 😳.

  • 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.

  • AndreaKuszewski Andrea Kuszewski 🧠 (@AndreaKuszewski) reported from Redwood City, California

    @tomaxwell I figured that’s what you meant, but I couldn’t help myself because I was just remembering how Skype broke my heart

  • AmandaSoprano I spoke to Jonas Salk on the phone one time (@AmandaSoprano) reported from New Orleans, Louisiana

    @champsuperstar There's a porn with a similar plot. Except the dude forgets to shut down his Skype before railing his old lady.

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

Best thing I ever did. I have endless anecdotes of why!! When things have settled down, would be great to skype or something!

  • 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

  • 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...

  • boripool Tori Pool (@boripool) reported from San Antonio, Texas

    I only use my mouse so that Skype doesn’t tell my coworkers that I’m inactive. I’m Latina, my mom’s been telling me I’m inactive my whole life. Sit down Skype🤙🏾

  • imshikha Shikha Prasad (@imshikha) reported from Arun Arekar -residence, State of Gujarāt

    @SkypeSupport I've sent you a DM with all the details team. The issue was happening in morning. I checked back again in an hour, it was still the same. Finally I checked in evening, and it was working fine.

  • doublehxppiness benji (@doublehxppiness) reported from Waterloo, Ontario

    I am in a bathroom and this person literally on Skype with someone please send help

  • 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.

  • coonerinoo Vibe Checked (@coonerinoo) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    Random people within the company love to hmu on Skype and ask for help but when I ask em to fill out a stank ass two question surgery they offline 😒 I'm not answering these mfs anymore
