  @Skype your support the #IranRevolution by offering free calls at a time the internet has been shut down in the country was greatly appreciated. Alas it was too short lived, while the revolution and crackdown continue. Any chance you'd like to renew your support?

  @Skype AGAIN I AM GETTING NO WHERE! Failed lies from your customer service reps and hanging up in chat after I spend ages explain and typing! I am sick of it!

  Been going down a rabbit hole. Anyone know (from experience, not the lies published online) how to cancel your @Skype account and stop them charging you without them threatening to cancel your @Microsoft account? Such a scam and it's almost impossible.

  @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.

  I miss the simplicity of @Skype ‘Heres an easy to use calling package that suits what you want. Here’s a number in the area you want. Away you go’ Tried teams & it was terrible to use.. Not user friendly at all & the amount of hurdles you have to go through is insane

  @Skype Why the phone fonction is not working actually, neither on CPU or the app? And don't we are able to talk to someone at client service at Skype, except a f****g and stupid robot?

  @equity_avenger My mom had the same exact person call us 17 times today from different numbers. They use @Skype and some illegal program to hijack other people's phone numbers. The FBI or whoever need to crack down on Skype.

  J.C. Manning (@jcmanning_sp) reported 18 minutes ago

  No solutions whatsoever, $20 less in my account, cannot make the important phone call, 3+ hours with support with no resolutions. I am very angry. I want a refund and I am looking into alternative apps. FIX your program. @SkypeSupport @Skype #ScamAlert #badservice 3/3

  @Skype sort your system topped up 7 hours ago to make an overseas call and credit not added to account when contacting support told will take 2 days surely that's illegal for not informing of any problems or maintenance before taking my payment

  Nick (@NickBungay) reported 45 minutes ago

  Let it be known: someone steals your account with @Skype, changed the email so you can’t access it, @Microsoft won’t help you. You need access to the account or have to fill out forms that go nowhere. If anyone knows how to uncover cr*****@emlpro.com send it my way. I wanna sue.

  @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
