  • EricJohanssonLJ Eric Johansson (@EricJohanssonLJ) reported

    Not saying @Skype is a good service, but it's dial-up tone is an absolute banger

  • deirdresm Deirdre Saoirse Moen (@deirdresm) reported

    @dancingtreefrog @Skype They emailed me about possible charges, and they were mostly from either Nigeria or Ghana. But there were suddenly 20 attempts. I did love the Bahamian Passport Office attempt. Since I have a credit union, they use a third-party service for emergency card cancellations.

    @SkypeSupport @SkypeSupport @Skype Are the services down? not able to call any number, its just giving a engaged tune for any number i try

  • Xzojr1 K!ranjaMkuu (@Xzojr1) reported

    @Skype What's problem with you guys. Can't access anything from your app

  • danielkrenn Daniel Krenn (@danielkrenn) reported

    Dear @Skype, I've just closed my account with you, and I will never return. Forge on ahead!, and keep wasting your time adding pride emojis, instead of fixing critical issues and adding useful functionality. What a pack of ********.

  • MatolCharlotte Charlotte Matol (@MatolCharlotte) reported

    @Skype How to get help from your customer service?

  • ZaraNadine Zara Davies (@ZaraNadine) reported

    @Skype this is a ridiculous. Please could you read my message and unlock my account and NOT send me the same link yet again? Why does it take so long to resolve a simple issue. My account has been locked for ages now

  • WGailey24 William Gailey (@WGailey24) reported

    @Skype @MicrosoftTeams So the way that whole available/away/offline thing should work is in settings have a select 1/3 radio buttons. Select Status Update O User Selection (what it is right now) O Logon/Logoff (based on log on, log off, shut down/suspend O Camera (motion based)

  • keremzaglul Kerem Zaglul (@keremzaglul) reported

    @elonmusk Literally cannot prevent @Skype from opening at login on my MacBook Air. Driving me crazy!

  • edithmoreno_ Edith (@edithmoreno_) reported

    @Microsoft The steps to change password on @Skype should be easy and quick. Your up-and-down steps are useless and make us get mad. You guys need emergently a UX Manager!

  • omazhary Omar Elazhary (@omazhary) reported

    Is the @Skype @ubuntu repo malfunctioning? I keep getting issues with GPG keys not matching up during automatic updates.

  • DarrenSlaughtr Darren Slaughter (@DarrenSlaughtr) reported

    Funny how @Skype has stronger login credentials than my bank. 😵‍💫

  • reneechristense renee christensen (@reneechristense) reported

    @Skype @Skype i am incredibly frustrated. why can't i cancel/close my account? why am i still getting charged -- it doesn't show up on my skype account but it does on my CC bill. the instructions you have on your support page don't match what i see. pls help. why is there no # to call

  • Mumma_haley35 mummamoo (@Mumma_haley35) reported

    @Skype hey, for some reason when trying to connect to my number it's just ringing their end but not my end & not even telling me either, are you having issues with connections? I've missed a lot of USA important calls the last 2 days

  • reneechristense renee christensen (@reneechristense) reported

    @Skype @Skype please help me cancel my account. so frustrating you guys make this so difficult.

  • mcbeniwal Mahesh Chand (@mcbeniwal) reported

    @ChristosMatskas @Skype My fear is having single login for these apps makes all of them a single point of hack. I use multiple machines and apps for different purposes. For example one machine needs to be really secure that I don’t want to have anyone access to, ever.

  • Sarah14757269 Sarah (@Sarah14757269) reported

    @Skype Unable to receive incoming calls, help please!

  • Stephendave09 Richard (@Stephendave09) reported

    @ZaraNadine @Skype Contact hackcreed_01 on Instagram or +1 571 445 4036 on WhatsApp for help, support and recovery. He is fast and trustworthy.

  • nedlowe82 Ned Lowe (@nedlowe82) reported

    @amitpgupta @Skype @Microsoft It’s completely out of control. Every time you login it starts generating new Skype IDs and nothing is linked. Last time I got my money transferred to a single account, this time I can’t be bothered.
