  • StefanSchippers Stefan Schippers (@StefanSchippers) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps I have an issue with Teams. Can only logon via iPhone, not iMAC due to a conflict of my Skype vs Teams login. But following a shared screen via phone is very hard.

    @SuchethaSuresh NB! Skrill will never ask you for your account credentials via Skype or Social networks. Only enter your login details on the genuine Skrill site and mobile apps.

  • KotwicaMonica Monica Kotwica (@KotwicaMonica) reported

    @Skype Re your subscription offer: I made 3 separate calls, each lasted around 10s however 3 minutes were deducted from my entitlement. Is this how your service work? You take whole minute?

  • SeaboltGene Gene Seabolt (@SeaboltGene) reported

    @BandyXLee1 1/2: What I really want to ask is how much you would charge for an hour a week of Skype therapy? You can kick back and type, doom-scroll awaiting my reply, every so often tab over and jot down a note about this intriguing case report. But I first feel compelled to ask:

    @SkypeSupport I am not getting notifications bottom right when someone sends me a message. Please help. Notifications are on.

  • michaelpatron0 Michael Patrón (@michaelpatron0) reported

    @magiccarptglide @Fernand19424575 @Molson_Hart Yup, exactly how my guy does it. Think he has 3-4 bookkeepers. I skype my guy with any urgent issues and do a once a month zoom meeting to go over P&L, Balance Sheet, budgeting, etc. He also talks with my financial planner and tax attorney when needed.

    Im a nonthreatening feminist boy, come talk to me on Skype! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘systematic’ means.

  • xsammiebbx sammiexx (@xsammiebbx) reported

    @aimfreemanX I need to calm down I’ve never used Skype before so what will happen

  • JenniHalton Jenni Elbourne (@JenniHalton) reported

    Don't worry @skype (i mean, you're clearly not worried AT ALL), I've worked it out in the end. No thanks to your abysmal (= non-existent) customer service.

  • YaBoiCBK Charlie (@YaBoiCBK) reported

    @UwwBlake @AgentBoolen @SnazzyQ Another problem with Skype pre MTeams was with each update, Skype would become buggier and buggier. It was unusable at some points.

  • vanilagelato black shadow (@vanilagelato) reported

    anyone wanna hv a call on skype? i feeling soooo terrible today 😤

  • RecalcitrantOwl Your Owl Is In Another Castle (@RecalcitrantOwl) reported

    I would let it slide, but its about the millionth time that Skype has screwed me up by slamming into me with its shoulder while I was walking down the hallway.

  • JoeAllen2ft8 Mr. Gru Sky (@JoeAllen2ft8) reported

    Why does the Skype call song sound like The Postal Service

  • xox_luna_xox Kaleb Michael (@xox_luna_xox) reported

    We've done a couple of times while on Skype together, and once he had sat down to watch his show. I was a bit surprised that he didn't hang up, because he had gotten up briefly before sitting back down and falling asleep.

  • KarneraMythos Karnera Mythos (@KarneraMythos) reported

    @JordanLink101 @FalKoopa_ Skype spiraled down uncontrollably the moment they forced ads on it and made it so that conversations can't have their own windows.

  • MexicanNinjaaaa horchata homie (@MexicanNinjaaaa) reported

    lol all of the work servers are down and no one can access email, skype, or like anything. happy extra day of vacation for me 💅🏽

  • iNeedGoddessTi Goddess Ti👸🏽 DC sessions Thursday (@iNeedGoddessTi) reported

    Some of the most selfish mfs. And liable to top from the bottom because they are used to simply paying for a service catered exactly to what they want from Us. This tends to make Me very picky about who I allow to *serve* Me on Skype.

  • LakeDaynes laken (@LakeDaynes) reported

    I think that the people who breath heavily down the mic, aware of the mute button, do it on purpose. There is no other explanation after 8 months worth of zoom/Skype meetings

  • ComeOnROY ROY (@ComeOnROY) reported

    .@SkypeSupport Facing a payment issue (of course, I paid but Skype not responding). DMed you too but no success!

  • RWinckworth Rebecca Winckworth (@RWinckworth) reported

    @SeamusCarey That's a brilliant service and never knew it existed. I just pay per minute with Skype and it costs me an absolute fortune. I still have had no reply from AIB 3 days without access to my cards. Nightmare. Thank you, Seamus.

  • RiskyBusiness05 5$ Nightly Nut November 🤫🌟 (@RiskyBusiness05) reported

    When you login to an old Skype account and find hella old clients! Even after not speaking for 3+ years they are already being good subs and sending what I deserve. 🥴🤤

  • serufred fredser (@serufred) reported

  • Celia2575 Celia 👩🏻‍🦰🐾🐶🌳 (@Celia2575) reported

    @ladydebidebz1 Oh no. I’m so sorry. Is there any sort of online tutorial on YouTube or anything you could look at?? Is it a specific issue with Skype that’s the problem?
