  mister magnificent (@iBeLikeWater) reported 10 minutes ago

  @skype do you keep deleting my tweets? Why is the translator not working for me but it's working for the other person? All settings are correct. It's translating in the notifications but not in the chat itself

  @skype Is anyone else having trouble with these thieves? Confuse you over subscriptions vs. auto renew then keep taking money even though auto-renew is not enabled.

  They never give you a phone number for customer service and they don’t help anyone. The lazy customer service just locks the accounts to avoid doing any work. I was using @Skype paid services & now you won’t get a penny out of me. @Microsoft if you give a damn, @SkypeSupport

  Is @Skype @SkypeSupport down?

  Onne Vegter (@OnneVegter) reported 36 minutes ago

  @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!

  Once upon a time, @Skype would just keep your paid credit for years. It would just work. Now they say "We're going to turn it inactive after 180 days and make you jump through hoops to reactivate it and oh yeah our credit systems are down so we can't reactivate it right now." BOO

  So after years of not using @skype (probably for 15 years), I get a charge notification for Skype Number, 12 month subscription, $29.94, Paypal, Delivered. My ability to get ahold of @skype or get help = 0. Anyone know what's up?

  @Skype General Question to the TwitterVerse: Is Skype support as incompetent and as utterly unreachable as it seems to be or is there a secret to getting a human to deal with what Skype has made into an absurdly complex problem?

  Brian (@fuelbot) reported 41 minutes ago

  @Skype is a miserable service with abysmal customer service. The worst.

  tick tock says the dumb on the clock (@KINGKAZA13) reported 42 minutes ago

  @Skype can you please make skype opens source as it would help make it more popular and useful then Microsoft adding random features thinking it will beat zoom Especially when Microsoft meet is it's "replacement"

  So, it's been a long time, but when did @Skype become a combination of expensive to use, completely unintuitive, and broken?

  Rahman Rezaei (@RahmanRezaei15) reported 43 minutes ago

  @Skype #robbery #theft report: I had a 60 min sub. After talking only 20 mins on the phone my credit ran out! I sent DM to @SkypeSupport and reported the issue, and they directed me to an imaginary non-existing team. If you like your money, avoid using #Skype. their reply:

  It is mind-blowing that @Microsoft is standing behind @MicrosoftTeams as an enterprise product. - Calls never connect - Major message synching issues between mobile and desktop - Super buggy Screw your AI offerings, fix basic software first my peeps or give us back @Skype.

  Hi @Skype @MicrosoftHelps I want to make a call with Web Skpe (from Teams) and it says I don't have any paid service. Where did my 8 USD go?

  John Kelley (@freethelemmings) reported 49 minutes ago

  When your job uses both @Skype and @MicrosoftTeams it's a lot like when you change cable companies and the new company literally rips out any of the old existing connections just to make the other company's life hell if they ever have to hook up service again. #GetYourOwnSandbox

  @Skype Skype comprises a combo of morons, idiots, & imbeciles. There's no way to contact anyone to correct an absurdly grotesque problem created by the above mentioned morons, idiots, & imbeciles. God save us from Know-It-All Techies! PERSIST! RESIST! RAGE! RETWEET!

  @Skype Can you PLEASE resolve a bug that's been posted about for years on MS Support forums where Skype kills all other audio when using bluetooth headsets? There are threads closed out from a year ago, yet the issue persists, and many have reported it.

  @Skype is charging me $3.49 over and over again for a service I’m not able to use through @Apple subscriptions. Everytime I try to cancel they charge me again. Please fix this.
