  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.

  .@skype #skype Your product has become too unreliable to use for business. I CAN'T SHUT IT DOWN WITH TASK MANAGER. That is a problem when a program is unresponsive. And yours is unresponsive a lot. Made me late to a meeting today. #byeskype

  @Skype You need to fix your ios app! The give feedback button wont even work. I am deleting Skype for now. Spam has gone rampant on there the last few days and there is no report as spam button just leave group.

  @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!

  Hey, @discord, people are starting to compare you to @Skype now. It's actually trending, worldwide. You remember what happened to Skype, don't you? Because of you? The irony would be delicious if the situation weren't so terrible. But you can fix this. You know what to do & how.
