  @Skype I've received some emails that appear legitimate about orders I have placed. I haven't placed any orders. Please help.

  hey @Skype @Microsoft please help fix. Video on Skype to Skype calls isn't working for users in the Philippines when calling non-Philippine users.

  @Microsoft @Skype Why are you making it impossible to access my skype credit now that skype has been retired? By making it impossible to move or access my credit balance or to get support about this, you are essentially stealing from me. Since you closed down Skype and Skype Manager, you should automatically refund all unused Skype credit to the manager or user who purchased the credit. Why do the richest and biggest tech companies always have the worst customer support? Stop being evil and stop robbing people!

  @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

  I guess it's almost time go to back to @Skype since @discord has been nothing but giving me issues even after several updates. D:

  Skype web calling isn't working, and I still have active credits. This feels like a scam. I keep getting a "please register your Skype ID" error. Please fix your ****. @Skype @MicrosoftTeams

  @Skype You make it impossible to speak to a human support member of staff. All I get is to post questions in the community. I need someone from Skype to help me!

  @Microsoft should hire me so I can fix whatever bullshit @Skype foreign currency scam is going on. It's ludicrous that I can't delete my Skype account THAT I NEVER USE BECAUSE SKYPE SUCKS without deleting my entire MSFT account (which I mostly never use).

  My account has been blocked for no reason while I have spent 40 pounds on my subscription. As Skype support is worst in the world I had no any other ways except informing you on twitter Please help with my issue @Skype

  Jazz Shaw (@JazzShaw) reported 38 minutes ago

  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 Is anyone else having trouble with these thieves? Confuse you over subscriptions vs. auto renew then keep taking money even though auto-renew is not enabled.

  @HimeMysti @Skype Skype's already shut down. Plus, you couldn't really build a community on there.
