  @Skype @SkypeSupport Your service sucks. I enter Skype after some months, purchase $10 of credit. Then it asks me to confirm my identity and change my password TWICE, which I do. I try to call someone and my account gets locked. Important call btw. After 2 hours with support 1/3

  Cancelled my @ViberHelp account now, as I couldn’t let this error carry on. Fortunately @Skype have a free trial for a month, so giving them a go. Hard to accept that Viber do this to me after being a loyal customer for 10 years.

  @MaxMoralesChile @MedhiGaurav @Skype in 2005 when I was in Iraq and Kuwait, Skype cut my monthly phone bill from $500 down to like $25. My thought was this is going to be a game changer

  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

  @Skype I'm using the translator but it's only working for the other person. My settings are for English and it's appearing correctly in the notifications. But not in the chat itself. How do I fix this?

  @Skype I can't access my account because the reset password code isn't being sent to my email. Idk why you make it so hard to speak to a rep. I can't prove my account because I don't have any contacts saved. I only used it for one purpose. Please help me access my account.

  I bought a @Skype number and share it with my clients, when they call the number they got a "this number is not in use" ring. Can anyone help me? @SkypeSupport has a pathetic support service, I have been trying to contact them for 4 hours but it ends up by stuck in a queue. :(

  @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:

  I use @Skype subscriptions for talking to my family in Iran. Yesterday, Skype suspended my account because of using their service and told me I should create a new account, rest of my current package is gone and they even won't refund the package. Amazing service and support!!!
