  • VictorEkman5 Victor Ekman (@VictorEkman5) reported

    @Enichan I use all the ridges when I type. Ridges are made to show potential. Just like when I used skype... Fell down from that service, life is consequential.

  • stone_cd Stone Creative Design (@stone_cd) reported

    @virginmedia @yehaToni Me to same problem, I am N4 London, can’t connect to certain websites, Zoom and can’t get my emails, so stuff works though, like Skype and most websites, can’t understand it

  • Porno_Mall Male Physique (@Porno_Mall) reported

    @MergedMediaLtd I loved the trade shows. As a Gay Senior citizen, many Reps were downright insulting. Did business when I got back home, on email or Skype. Lots. With company personnel who don't get sent to shows. I've spent the past year wrestling down the credit card debt from those shows. Win

  • JoPhillips124 Tis me (@JoPhillips124) reported

    Teachers never had any kind of ressources or help from @Sflecce. They learned online teaching by watching«you tube» videos, learned with colleagues via Skype & FaceTime. @Sflecce has no integrity. He cannot claim any success.They deserve more appreciation from @Sflecce.

  • pdismore p diz (@pdismore) reported

    @ClayTravis If staff is so scared to go back, and the science shows it is safe for kids... why not have a projector in the class for the teacher to be remote and do a skype or zoom?? Then have a 'hall-monitor'(s) wearing PPE, walking up and down checking on the kids?

  • fkyesss Emma (@fkyesss) reported

    @GreatKatzby03 @atRiskyVenture Been down this road before when I was a member of several private trading groups on Skype. Not practical for a whole host of reasons which I am too tired to get into again here. But I appreciate the suggestions/sentiment :)

  • Kirsha_Ay Siye C (@Kirsha_Ay) reported

    If you're a mutual of mine on skype you may have recieved an apology message. This comes from three years of thinking about old friendships and the problems I caused within them. If you didn't recieve one and feel like you should've please pm me.

  • bronze_adam Adam Bronze (@bronze_adam) reported

    @TheRock has the video update down pat. I wish I could jump on a Skype call with the team sweaty, shirtless, and out of breathe and provide a big project update then say mahalo and eat 45000 calories.

  • cyanebooks cyanebooks (@cyanebooks) reported

    today in skype: help, I believe this was from some magazine a while ago and scanned and uploaded online later

  • kithyperfixates 𖤐 𝓀𝒾𝓉 is mourning daft punk △ (@kithyperfixates) reported

    meant Skype not kik* I'm so broken

  • ZiZLoG Sven Andriske (@ZiZLoG) reported

    @rafrasenberg What is to like about Microsoft when their main strategy is, buying someone else’s service or software, ie. entire company and sell it as theirs? 225 companies in total were purchased by MS so far, including Skype, LinkedIn, Nokia & GitHub.

  • LenovoSupport Lenovo Support (@LenovoSupport) reported

    @bearsky8 Hi bearsky! Thanks for reaching out. When did the issue start? Are there any recent changes or updates prior? Does it only happen on Zoom? What about on other apps like Skype or Messenger? Erica_Lenovo

  • marceschulz Marce (rhymes with farce) (@marceschulz) reported

    @AskCapitalOne CC was compromised & canceled early Dec. You sent new card to my US mail address; never arrived. Sent a 2nd direct to me in Malaysia, never arrived. Nearly 3 months, hours on the phone via Skype and I’m still cardless. Mail not working, need courier. Help!

  • Kaitain_US Kaitain 🇺🇸 (@Kaitain_US) reported

    "Hey I got a problem. Can you fix this now?!" "K, I'll let you know it's been fixed on Skype." *fixes problem and checks skype. Sees status has been offline for 2 hours." "********? Did he go home? Probably."

  • pomidorchi K. Barabanoff (@pomidorchi) reported

    With all that endless video conference calls, Apple may introduce a global MUTE MIC hotkey, which works independently of the VC app (Zoom, Teams, Skype,..) and shuts your voice down effectively in #macOS. I have tested a dozen of solutions. None of which works as expected. Ideas?

  • uncl3dumby dumby. (@uncl3dumby) reported

    So, figured I'd give MS365 personal a try. Phew... lots to complain about. Went all-out with a custom domain which was SUPER painful and confusing. They've got a huge problem separating the UX of free/paid users. And apparently you can't disable receiving spam calls on Skype?

  • AmyBetthh amy (@AmyBetthh) reported

    why does skype for business shutting down make me kinda sad

  • StephBarber09 Stephanie Barber (@StephBarber09) reported

    @virginmedia Everything is exactly the same. I pay for 200mb, I only have 2 consoles running on WiFi and one on a LAN throught the powerline booster, and constant issues. Struggling to have a Skype call go through smoothly. Virgin is meant to be the best. Its certainly not reliable.

  • verdanturf ballpit pallbearer (@verdanturf) reported

    @fshmain there were some nice ones though. hellen from the skype group idk where you are now but you held it down.

  • _Rbot_ Rooben.avi (@_Rbot_) reported

  • flavourine Flavourine (@flavourine) reported

    @SkypeSupport I am having trouble with my subscription for calls. It's asking me to recharge even when I bought subscription days ago for international calls.

  • cherrydroodles 🌸🍒 Cherry 🍒🌸 (@cherrydroodles) reported

    @_ShayGar_ tbh I wish msn messenger were still around 🥺 I was forced to move to skype when it shut down 😔

  • MJSmith891 MJ: A Chicken Soup For The Soul Company (@MJSmith891) reported

    @untitleduser For one of my shows Discord with each person recording their own audio natively via audacity/a back-up with the Discord record bot (it sucks and is only for emergencies). For the other, Skype with the native call recorder (never had an issue with it).

  • _dearmoonlight silvie 💜 moistened toes (@_dearmoonlight) reported
