Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RobertNogier Robert Nogier (@RobertNogier) reported from Cowley, Alberta

    @DarkoneOfDamned @WynonnaEarp The problem with zoom is that it is very hackable and has been hit numerous times over the past few months that's the main reason I suggest Skype, just a little more secure.

  • Jayson_Peterson Jayson Peterson (@Jayson_Peterson) reported from Kent, Washington

    And being distracted with terrible news, I may be better off keeping all Skype meetings on mute.

  • SheilaC98106887 Sheila Cox (@SheilaC98106887) reported from Trumbauersville, Pennsylvania

    @BreitbartNews As far as I’m concerned, none of them need to return. They can Skype, Zoom like the rest of us. Think of all the money we could save. Plus K street wouldn’t be right down the street. Stay Home

  • talk_kerry sports talk with kerry wehmeyer (@talk_kerry) reported from Meraux, Louisiana

    @WinWithMalliard No problem anytime if yall want to come on my show yall can though Skype

  • film_girl Christina Warren (@film_girl) reported from Seattle, Washington

    So the optics are terrible and the opsec of using a personal cell phone or FT Zoom account unforgivable (this is what Skype numbers are literally for), but this isn’t a scandal and the reporter was definitely given the invite by employees who wanted accountability

  • evanempdx evanem (@evanempdx) reported from New Orleans, Louisiana

    @joesimonssays @corbinasmith No. Skype for work purposes is terrible. One of my clients use Skype, and every week someone on the call had issues with it.

  • kellaaaayyy Carrie Bradshaw🌙✨ (@kellaaaayyy) reported from Richmond, Texas

    I Skype the TA to HELP ME bc I don't know what tf is going on and his response to was to just follow the labs instructions and I should be good. I'm about to go Karen.

  • makingnocchi Gary (@makingnocchi) reported from Smyrna, Georgia

    . @cnbc you should require people to use zoom or something other than Skype ... Skype always seems to be a problem

  • JSNBSHP J🌞 (@JSNBSHP) reported from Bristol, England

    Just heard my housemate on a Skype call tell someone his hair looks terrible.. cut your own ******* hair next time, pal! 😅

  • amishasays AMISHA SHARMA (@amishasays) reported from Bilāspur, State of Chhattīsgarh

    I seriously don't know what is this. It must be a spam or "ese log hote hain" is not working for me in here. I am terrified. I have uninstalled Skype and I am putting this person's skype id in the thread. @SkypeSupport @Skype

  • d_whitley1 David Whitley (@d_whitley1) reported from Hillsdale, North Carolina

    @discord I'm having an issue on my @Google pixel 3 voice channel not letting me use an external microphone. Not a hardware issue. Works fine for zoom calls, phone calls, and Skype. Discord app picks up no signal.

  • lilgayafg Left on Dread (@lilgayafg) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @GayRobot_ @macolon2 @SkypeBusiness Yes, I know. They’re contract with my work is for Skype (when moved away from Teams). Regardless, they have a product that they’re still in charge of but not doing anything about it. This is one of my many issues w/ Microsoft.

  • thatchamdad Tim | ThatchamDad (@thatchamdad) reported from Thatcham, England

    @One_Dads_View I usually work from home a day a week. Even before this happened, I was thinking whether I could do two - my job involves hardly any face-to-face contact anyway as it’s mostly Skype calls. The issue is it’s against company policy - if I worked from home more, I’d have to ...

  • XianNewman Christian Newman 👨🏻‍💻 (@XianNewman) reported from Surrey, British Columbia

    @MichelleKHarper Ironically, consumer Skype is pretty good as a (albeit basic) chat service - but Skype for Business is simply unusable and grounded in legacy Exchange architecture.

  • JohnCarney John Carney ➡️⬅️ Day 23 (@JohnCarney) reported from Pflugerville, Texas

    I know Skype isn’t cool but the low latency on the service really helps conversations.
