-
The Foremoststore (@foremoststore) reportedI bought a @Skype number and share it with my clients, when they call the number they got a "this number is not in use" ring. Can anyone help me? @SkypeSupport has a pathetic support service, I have been trying to contact them for 4 hours but it ends up by stuck in a queue. :(
-
Rebecca Cuthbert is on submission (@RebeccaJCuth) reported@Skype how do I get a hold of someone to help me? The robots keep sending me back to the sign in page. #customerservice
-
Ó Gaff Mór (@Cocavan11) reported@Skype General Question to the TwitterVerse: Is Skype support as incompetent and as utterly unreachable as it seems to be or is there a secret to getting a human to deal with what Skype has made into an absurdly complex problem?
-
Dusk (@Dusky_Knight) reported@ILikeBatsTho @spinelessaisha @Skype Skype got shut down last year.

信道 （しんどう）⁷ (@wangubaagu) reported@Skype So how many hours do I have to wait for you to send me my login code? Thank God it's not an important conference. Skype is not to be trusted, obviously.

J.C. Manning (@jcmanning_sp) reported@Skype @SkypeSupport Your service sucks. I enter Skype after some months, purchase $10 of credit. Then it asks me to confirm my identity and change my password TWICE, which I do. I try to call someone and my account gets locked. Important call btw. After 2 hours with support 1/3
-
Brad Case (@thebradcase) reported@Skype why is it near impossible to get any real help from you??
-
GundaManBatan (@GundaManBatan) reported@Skype hi yes can i please get help on deleting my skype account for some reason i cant delete it please help
-
Onne Vegter (@OnneVegter) reported@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!

Rahman Rezaei (@RahmanRezaei15) reportedAfter this message, they did not reply to my messages any more. Many of my friends and colleagues have had the same issue with @Skype

Mar 🐙 (@masc_simp) reportedFor over a month now when I Skype with my gf she can see herself in the camera window but not me, same for me. Any other app we use has no camera issue. But we love Skype. We reset the app, made new accounts, same issue. Is this happening to anyone else? @Skype care to chime in?
