    @casas_jimmy I created an entire scenario that you needed our help. If we could Skype with you at some point to discuss the book before the end of the year my team would be thrilled!

    @SkypeSupport Hi, it has started ever since I bought the package two weeks ago, I have also checked the status within my area and there are no issues there. I need to call landlines and mobiles so I bought the unlimited package

    @SkypeSupport The network was fine for my Google Hangout just before (and is generally fine for that too - it typical measures 50Mbps up & down and is managed corporate network). I don't use Skype often, just when the other party requests it, but it typically is bad when I use it.

    My latest #Skype auto-update broke my login.. If you're on 8.39 build and can't login, go to the website and download build 8.40.. Login fixed! #MVPBuzz

    So apparently, there was some big merger and Skype changed and I had to reinstall. Would have been nice to notify people or have skype auto update when I opened it instead of just giving me that useless error. I don't use skype daily, only every few months with my bff.

    @SkypeSupport I recorded a call via Skype on 2/25 and am now unable to download the video file, but I’m well within the 30 day window where you are able to download. Help would be appreciated.

    @vaficionado @SkypeBusiness @zoom_us It was down yesterday too. Had back to back meetings yesterday which customers set up on Webex and Skype; Webex is so old and takes so long to join, skype just wasn’t working straight up. Love Zoom!!

    I’ve had my laptop for 1 yr & use it for everything. I went to do a Skype interview- guess what won’t start up! So now I get to spend 1/2 of today @ the store diagnosing it & how much it’s gonna cost to fix instead of the day & a half I finally get to spend with my family. Cool.

  • 5waysRichard
    Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It’s down again now and, according to the @virginmedia recorded message , will be interrupted ‘for short periods’ until 6pm today. Pretty unhelpful, esp as I often use Skype to speak to interviewees abroad
