    @TheBladeJobShow @Declan_Kenny82 @5Nerdsgo You spelled honour wrong. Also, @BladeJobJOlen, the 2nd TBJ member to be on WWW, his episode drops next week. And his @BadlandsPod episode drops this week. Skype issues, recording issues, mic issues and Jon locking himself out of his house issues tried to stop these episodes!

  • puntofisso Giuseppe Sollazzo (@puntofisso) reported from London Colney, England

    @paulineyau My issue is that I've found myself waving at Skype calls even when the camera is off...

  • Joana_MPereira Joana Pereira (@Joana_MPereira) reported from Le Mesnil-Amelot, Île-de-France

    @whartonshumthin I am in a long distance relationship for 7 years. Skype calls everynight for at least 1h, visits every two weeks where we just sit together working and discussing/brainstorming on our scientific problems.

  • monkchips Henry Counter-Manspread (@monkchips) reported from Hackney, England

    if i was the @Windows team i'd be telling the @Skype team to fix their app and stop hurting overall system performance, not making it harder to turn the app off. please don't @ me if your clever solution to my problem is for me to not use windows.

  • AZiemak Amy Z. (@AZiemak) reported from Cleveland Heights, Ohio

    Skype won’t work, google calendar is dead, and my office WiFi is down. I think it’s time to leave. It’s basically a matter of national security at this point.

  • Melbondpanda мεℓιssα вση∂ (@Melbondpanda) reported from Watford, England

    @SkypeSupport Hello, I'm having problems with signing into my account, it sayd it doesn't exist but when I try to recover it says I already have an account. I need it for work urgently, please.

  • vanhybrid Michael Van Hybrid #collabsummit 🇩🇪 (@vanhybrid) reported from Affligem, Flanders

    Today, EU courts should decide whether SkypeOut is to be considered an electronic comms service or not. Might force Skype under Telecom law(s). I wonder what the impact could be on other services like #MicrosoftTeams etc., if they do... #thoughtoftheday

  • stephent122 Stephen Townsley (@stephent122) reported from Walker Gate, England

    If #Apple brought #imessage to #Android it would close down any new #google #rcs play overnight. Might even kill #skype and others. @TechAltar

  • jadethuo Jah Man (@jadethuo) reported from Nairobi, Nairobi

    Been in a @Skype call for nearly 2hours am just hungry tbh ... the probable quotation should fix fix this by the end of this but meanwhile ayam suffering

  • teslaxbrit ❀ Ryan ❀ 2️⃣7️⃣1️⃣ 🛫 (@teslaxbrit) reported from Garrane, Munster

    @spamless @TMobile This might help you as I’m in Ireland and need to check my voicemail; if you download Skype or Hangouts, and call +1 (805) 637-7243 through WiFi, you’ll be able to access your voicemail for free. Just need to press * to enter your number and PIN and you’ll be connected through.

  • rainisto Roope Rainisto (@rainisto) reported from Helsinki, Uusimaa

    @peterskillman Precisely. People learn the Skype user experience. My Snapchat on Android feels similar to iOS. Fix only those parts that would confuse platform users. Back iOS apps on a Mac, I don't see the reason why it couldn't be made to work given proper thought and consideration.

  • HuskerFox Heckles H. Hyena (@HuskerFox) reported from Montréal, Québec

    @leimlion Yeah I just installed it for some fun. Bringing back memories. It's the only thing I could ever use again since Microsoft locked me out of my own Hotmail account and refused to let me back in unless I paid for a subscription service. I lost access to my Skype & Messenger.

  • prexiousdiana Diana Prexious (@prexiousdiana) reported from Milano, Lombardia

    Hello @paysera i've been trying to contact customer service since yesterday, I was told you would call me via Skype and nothing. I really need to do this

  • dinsleyr Ralph Dinz Dinsley (@dinsleyr) reported from Los Angeles, California

    @bleddb A colleagues recently admitted to be working on Vista still...and wondered why he had problems connecting to Skype etc 🤪
