@Skype @Skype as a paying customer, I'd really like to have a way to talk to a human being when I need a tech support. Is there such an option? I purchased Skype Number, but have problems with it. What number can I call to get support?

@SkypeSupport @Skype How can I get someone to fix the issue I have with my Skype to Go access numbers? It's outrageous that I pay for a service I can't use. The online chat is useless! I don't need a guy telling me he can't help me because he is a only a level 1 support advisor!

@Skype The @skype chat history issue resolved a few minutes ago. However I still have a long standing issue with skype. Every time I send a file, I'm automatically logged out of the skype desktop app. I can never download any kind of files using skype. I can't send send a screenshot.

Just submitted my @Skype audio issue, which I thought was resolved but actually wasn't, to the Microsoft feedback hub. No idea if my feedback will even makeit to the right place, let alone be noticed, but I've got to get this resolved.

@Skype Microsoft locked my account in the middle of a life or death Skype call with my cousin, right after I bought credits for the call, cutting it off at a critical point. Cannot contact a human to fix it either. Calls to support are redirected to robots online.

So I'm trying to get my @Skype problem fixed through the forums like Microsoft wants you to do, but then you have fifty well-meaning people wanting you to try fifty different things. I just wish I could get some one-on-one help with this.

Is there an outage on @Skype #desktopapp and #skypeforweb. None of my chat history and contacts are showing up on these platforms. #skypeandroidapp is still working as usual. @SkypeSupport please look into this issue. @SkypeBusiness need a fix ASAP.

Thank goodness for @Skype ... With the Rogers/Fido service outage I would be really upset if I couldn't have my daily chit chat with my spare Mom. (I think some cities will need to re-assess their reliance on bulk Rogers cellular service contracts for city employees. #JustSayin)

You need to come out with a statement and apologize to all the victims and ensure them that you'll do better and make sure this never happens again. You @Skype are part of the problem, please fix it.

@Skype I've just had a very important interview with @AFCOStoke delayed due to a distinct repetitive beeping sound occurring throughout the call. The video quality was fine however I've spent the last hour trying to resolve the issue. Is it possible you could provide any insight?

@Skype charging $50 for a service that doesn't work and offering absolutely no tech support other than community forum is unacceptable. You claim I can get refund on your website, but even that isn't working. How do I reach a human being to get this resolved?

Disable auto-recharge on @Skype. Don't make a call or use any chargeable service. #Skype then makes an unauthorised charge to credit card and re-enables auto-recharge. Does it get any more #dishonest? No response from Skype support as to why this happened. #theft

@Microsoft needs to keep @Skype because @MicrosoftTeams is terrible. I dont want to hide chats I would rather delete them. Skype is so much more user friendly.
