  @Skype @Deepakbayofads My account is locked too for no reason. The chat kept me waiting forever and I never got to “chat”.You have a terrible new team at Skype. I use my account to call my elderly mother. She doesn’t have internet access and you cut off my only communication route. Brutal brutal brutal

  @Skype After updating my password on Saturday, I'm locked out of my account. I get a message saying 'We've detected activity that violates our Microsoft Services Agreement'. I sent a message explaining this to the provided address but to no avail. Anyone else had this problem?

  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!!!

  @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.

  No idea why, but all my contacts on @Skype disappeared. How on earth?? I need a snowplow service, but I never memorized that couple's number. What a bother. Once a year number, you know. Skype is sometimes more trouble than it's worth.

  @SkypeSupport @Skype Using your service since the last decade and now it getting crazier by the day. Just made a purchase to call and the amount has been debit from my credit card but the minutes are not credited to my account yet. Extremely dissatisfied.

  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.

  @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
