Skype Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Kaley (@kales16) reported from City of London, England@SA_M21 Skype appts are legit and can decrease people physically going to the doctor when they don’t need to. Always gotta strive for peak healthcare utilization where we only seek care when we need it, and not for issues like the common cold.

cacarr (@cacarr) reported from Portland, Oregon@GilWhitedale @chrislhayes These are data-slinging pocket computers now, and too few people care all that much about voice quality for it to be too much of a priority. And increasingly people voice communicate over IP anyhow -- Skype, FaceTime, Duo, etc -- and that's not a carrier issue.

joan-an-tríú (@joan_an_triu) reported from Saxman, Alaska@WisdomToothDog @72stroopwafels Yes! That happened to me on my first few Skype lessons with a tutor (after a few months of hard study to get some basics down). I'd just go blank! Or be so focused on the few earlier words I recognized that I'd miss the rest of the sentence... So stressful!

GM Raphi🏳️🌈 (@GMRaphi) reported from Olten, Solothurn@fionapup ...if it's _not_ hardware related, you can have a friend (or even me!) log into your box via Team Viewer, and look at the system's behavior and load together. Add voice chat via Skype or Discord, I'd be up for it, and we might find and or even fix stuff. If it doesn't fix itself!

💆🏽♀️ (@rene_plz) reported from Chicago, IllinoisMy favorite thing that happens at work is when I try to talk to people casually/tell them about my problems on Skype and they just clearly don’t care or don’t even bother to respond at all! I STAN lack of support in the workplace!!!! 🙃

Stephen Q Bunwackett Buzzardstubble and Boot #FBPE (@ISayPorter) reported from Bruxelles-Capitale, Brussels CapitalMy new Directorate-General has no telephones - everything is done through Skype for Business. I arrived and found my PC doesn't have it, so I emailed the help desk to ask them to install it. The response was predictable. See if you can guess what it was. Answer tomorrow.

Nitish Kumar (@nkumar_) reported from Greater Noida, Uttar PradeshToo many Skype/Team service degradation advisories from Microsoft within this month alone. What's going on.

John Farrell ☀️🌬🔋 (@johnffarrell) reported from Minneapolis, Minnesota@SkypeSupport It turned out to be a bank credit card issue and not Skype, but the support person was very helpful in showing me how to update the payment options. Thanks!

Oskar Howell (@oskarhowell) reported from Hamilton City, Waikato@sylveoncore ive decided to uninstall skype, id rather use an obscure chat service than use their pos. I really shouldnt have to make a separate account just for skype :/

Ratnakar Sadasyula-రత్నాకర్ సదస్యుల (@GabbarSanghi) reported from Rājendranagar, TelanganaDear IT companies, in these days of Skype, Zoom. When everything is done remotely, your insistence on holding face to face interviews makes no sense, unless you are doing a mass recruitment. Half the day is gone driving down and then waiting for the interview.

Mand (@ACCOX_artist) reported from Whitecroft, England@Scriblit @fenifur Totally. Crap all where I live and with my MH issues travelling wipes me out. Luckily I am working currently on a project with people who Skype and email.

Tara Sloggett (@purpleorchid369) reported from St. Catharines, Ontario@SkypeSupport I am currently using Xbox One as my platform. The issue has been going on forever and sometimes it never happens, sometimes that is all it does.
