Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • aexm Ana Milicevic (@aexm) reported

    @dabitch @acfou Microsoft has the most painful login/auth process of any company out there. It's as if it's purposefully designed to inflict pain. B/w that & Skype's insistence on adding someone to contacts to be able to speak with them, it was enough to get me to look elsewhere.

  • PINK_smooches third ward trill. (@PINK_smooches) reported

    So my skype is down and had to call someone for a meeting via cellphone. Afterwards he asked if he could keep my number to call me sometime 😩😭

    ugh skype outage 😑

  • MrWilson Brent C. Wilson (@MrWilson) reported

    I am amazed that @Microsoft continues to find new and innovative ways to break @Skype. This morning it's in a loop of login, chug chug chug, finally open (with the incorrect window size and location on my screen), work for about 3 seconds, then return to the login screen.
