-
Wulden (@Wulden83) reported@brintonyosaia @TheGrandZero @Skype teams has been around before that though. But yeah, I just noticed that they did shut these down back in 2025.
-
Fahad Zakir (@FahadZakir7) reported@Skype Skype can be a pain at times, chose create new account on windows 11 machine and there was no way to cancel and choose login instead.

mister magnificent (@iBeLikeWater) reported@Skype I have the translator turned on and it's only working for the other person. The notifications appear in English but the actual conversation is showing the original language. How do I fix this?
-
Onne Vegter (@OnneVegter) reported@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!

Haley Schuler-McCoin (@mccoin_haley) reported@Skype I paid for a Microsoft teams service so I could keep my Skype number, but then wasn't able to use it because I am not a business owner. I've been charged for 5 months and Microsoft has now refused my request for a refund. Is this really how Microsoft treats its users?
