    @BabaBihari007 shared server means. Server whole team can access, he logged in his skype id on that server, now any team member can login to that server and read the chats he is having on Skype. Hope it clears. & you really are a buffoon , not for understanding tweet but for being oversmart.

    @Milnertime04 @JezCorden Bluetooth is plenty stable. The @Xbox mobile app has been on a downward slide in usefulness for two years. It may be pretty, but its awful. I don't have BT issues with Skype, Zoom, or phone calls....

  • DanHMedina Daniel (@DanHMedina) reported

    @Office365 guys really need you to get it together. Microsoft teams down, skype down, phones are down.. business is dead in the water. No comms from your support team yet is a concern. #techsupport

  • GuyBenJonesSM GuyBenJonesSM 💙 (@GuyBenJonesSM) reported

    @ALICE_McCARTHY_ You could use Zoom or Skype; even something such as Twitch or another video-game streaming program. Doesnt have to be too fancy. What would be more important is having a decent camera & microphone connected to the computer as those are what tend to let down the quality of streams

    @Asensii20 @discord hi mr dum dum skype is terrible

  • howiecohen Howie "Not a Cat" Cohen (@howiecohen) reported

    @ramdonomo Same here. I bet Skype is down too, Downdetector showed almost everything MS web-based down.

  • TomGroganMdR Tom Grogan (@TomGroganMdR) reported

    @elanibuchan Agreed but think weather chat was replaced in 2020 by meaningless smalltalk around the quirks and issues with Zoom/Webex/Skype/Teams/Meets/[insert vc platform here].

  • karenb0716 Karen by birth, not behavior (@karenb0716) reported

    I just let our IT Dept know (via Skype) that Microsoft Teams is down. Does that count as productivity?

  • _Rbot_ Rooben.avi (@_Rbot_) reported

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

    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.

    @AnaJusticia2 @TomiLahren Well one is factual the other you. Just got denied all.MEDICAL. HELP. THEY ALL WENT HOME. MOST DOCTORS. INCLUDING YOUR OWN GP. think about it. No one could go anywhere just a phone or skype. THAT WAS BAD MOVE. ALSO

  • cranjuicelover clee (@cranjuicelover) reported

    Microsoft teams down globally just led to me having to have a Skype meeting which led to me not knowing how the camera off function works on Skype which led to me showing myself in my robe to my entire team. My origin story.

  • tedevium Tedevium (@tedevium) reported

    @mints4friends Eww, Skype is still in service?

  • textexin tex -Tweeto, ergo sum- (@textexin) reported

    @skypesupport Periodically deactivating skype credit is akin to a bank just keeping your money. Despite my using my account you deactivated credit. Help says there is a reactivate credit option somewhere, but not where. I cant find it.

  • stevemaybury SteveM (@stevemaybury) reported

    @markcduffell Switch the filter on! I'm pretty sure everyone else does that. Ashamed to say I joined the crowd. My issue comes when you move on to Teams or Skype and I look dog rough again.

  • FowlerThanEver Alexis Fowler (@FowlerThanEver) reported

    Telexfree was a Marlborough, MA based company that represented itself as a VOIP internet phone service, like Skype. It promoted free calls to Brazil and Latin America.

    @ValaAfshar ... true iff in(lock-down, covid, have zoom, have slack, have google meet, have teams, have skype) and not (misinformation)

  • WildNbratty princess❤️wildnbratty (@WildNbratty) reported

    Down to do a few **** rates before bed!!! Maybe a Skype? Maybe a drain? Someone entertain me😱

  • piperlastrega Cristina Accardi #Antifa 👩🏻‍🦯 💛 (@piperlastrega) reported

    Good evening, @skypesupport. I sent you a DM yesterday, because there are some problems with the iPhone app.

  • LHolocron L'Holocron (@LHolocron) reported

    @CornaSIP @Aaron_Skyguy After years and years of waiting. Even that, Luke has to help her sister from '' THE BEGINNING '' not at the end and being killed because Force Skype. But that my point of view.

  • tsuliman Tim Suliman NGS Gray Skull (@tsuliman) reported

    @andybudd I think it would help to have fewer apps to keep track of. I have email, Skype, Teams, phones, etc.

  • UODiehard86 DP (@UODiehard86) reported

    @goducksgirl @Microsoft The agency I work for moved from Skype to Teams and it’s been terrible

  • Alvin3L Alvin Lim (@Alvin3L) reported

    @minliangtan @Razer @minliangtan Overall i like it. Battery has been good for me 9AM till 5PM still have 80% Sound quality was good enough for calls and music, i even played CODM with it, no issues. Mic quality was good as well, i had skype calls for meeting

  • freudian_miss Janice Payne Witchtress (@freudian_miss) reported from Portland, Oregon

    @BackCindi I do offer that service through zoom/Skype or in person (with a mask).

  • thatdirtyone2 naughtiophile (@thatdirtyone2) reported

    @RossThrobb ilu man, but the only way i can read this is "hey, if you want to ***** skype with me, lemme know." I'm the broken one here. I know.

  • lydbloo Lydbloo#WeAreBeingMisled (@lydbloo) reported

    @darren_buckler @emmakennytv Is there no one on the end of a phone, Zoom, Skype? I know it’s not the same as a hug but it’ll help I’m sure. Give yourself a daily goal, definitely a daily walk please. Things have got to change, hold on as we the people will end this. Remember you’re not alone.

    @iamjondraper @DickVanKlondike If I still had a wrestling podcast you would be more than welcome to come on. Between Skype not working and work schedule and wrestling just sucking it wasn't worth it
