    @Skype This happens only with Brazilian numbers (mobile). I have tried with @Skype assistant and he had the same issues. So it is reproducible.

    @Skype the worst and the buggiest service lately! can't dial from my dial pad, people on the other line don't hear me or I don't hear them. Regretting topping up my account....

  • JoJo73278562 JoJo (@JoJo73278562) reported

    @Skype I’ve never experienced such a painfully awful live chat with your ‘customer service’ team. 40 mins of mostly waiting for replies, all of which were useless and unhelpful. In the end I had to just give up. Thanks for wasting my time #customerservice #thanksfornothing

  • FranzGsottbauer Franz Gsottbauer 🇦🇹 (@FranzGsottbauer) reported

    @Skype This is all happening far too late. Why have they broken Skype for the last few years? Now they are trying to save Skype at the last second. Users have been telling them for years what is wrong. It is too late. All my Skype contacts are already somewhere else.

  • laysauchoa laysa 🐍 (@laysauchoa) reported

    @Skype I have lost at least two monthly subscription with this bug. But this is not about the money and the amount of time to the issue be taken srly.

    @Skype hey I have a really simple question but I can't find any solution. So how do I sort my contacts in Skype? Like I want to make friend list, work list etc. But NOT group chats. Every tutorial I looked for explains how to create group chats which is not what I need. Any help?

    @Skype Unable to use Skype on the desktop app, but ok on the web and mobile version. The desktop app doesn't show any updated chats and it's on perpetual refreshing mode for every chat. Help? It happened suddenly since yesterday while I was using it.

  • laysauchoa laysa 🐍 (@laysauchoa) reported

    @Skype Canceling the subscription does not solve my issue. I still wanna to be able to call them, is there any service that could be recommended?

  • andrejonker Andre 🐦 (@andrejonker) reported

    I have been battling to get my paid for @Skype number fixed for so long, it is almost time for a renewal. @SkypeSupport, refusing to refund me for failing to deliver the service I paid for, because “it was bought and paid for more than 90 days ago”, violates my statutory rights.

  • marknoble //.// (@marknoble) reported

    @luiscarrascob @Skype @Microsoft I don't use PSTN *at all* so it irritates me that I have to pay for PSTN service via Skype so that 99.999% of the calls I get can be spam calls.
