    @Skype Today in a Skype-to-Phone call, the connection was interrupted and voices from tow other calls could be heard for some seconds. The problem occurred on the Skype side, while the Phone side kept hearing correctly. It’s concerning. Known issue? cc @SkypeSupport

    @FlwSupport How I wish I can sue @FlwSupport for toying me About 4weeks ago I made a complaint about a charge on my card, then I reported the issue with @Skype where my card has been used, I was told to contact my bank since then fluttetwave been giving me 1-3days each time I contacted them.

  • Just_Marzz Mars (@Just_Marzz) reported

    @Skype @SkypeSupport small spelling issue I think.....The tooltip when you hover on the Ring button says 'Ringf' is this correct? So when you in a group call and you click the list of users and you want to ring someone to bring them in. That is where the hover tooltip is. :)
