Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • edmoses ed moses (@edmoses) reported from Harefield, England

    @Ian_H_007 @virginmedia I pay for 500Mb - currently getting 86Mb. I can just about live with that. Being on hold during Skype/Teams/Zoom calls is unacceptable. The boys are having problems gaming and our video downloads on Sky keep failing - not great service.

  • Skylar10211 🧡❤Morgan❤🧡 (@Skylar10211) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @Juzoer Yeah back in like the early 2010s when gaming youtube was really hitting it off everyone was using skype and youtubers were having crashes and connection errors all over the place with skype. Now everyone uses Discord. The clearer audio in voice chats was a huge improvement.

  • akonkin Amanda Konkin (@akonkin) reported from Penticton, British Columbia

    First @Skype made me cry by locking me out (which I'm still raging about) and then in the middle of figuring out internet connection issues my computer just decided to install updates... so yeah @Arkwulf and I will record @ThunderQuackPod tomorrow. #callit #techsupport

  • hlouiseg Hayley Wood (@hlouiseg) reported from Truro, England

    @E7Drew @DrSarahJarvis @KOLRock17 Yes he has a care package in place & I had another best interest meeting last week via skype to try & get more help. A care home isn't viable (for obvious reasons). Its a nightmare scenario & desperately difficult to keep him & the people he's coming into contact with safe.

  • christxphvrr 𝕤𝕚𝕞𝕡 𝕓𝕚𝕫𝕜𝕚𝕥 🕗 (@christxphvrr) reported from Toronto, Ontario

    @twittterfaith actually i’m on skype with my gf while she’s sleeping and fortnite .. i mean call of duty warezone is on my tv and i’m actually feeling pretty fine and earlier skype took care of the other issue and nah bro i’m just too lazy to get ready for bed rn cuz i’m tired quite the paradox

  • MisterEGC Eric Crichlow (@MisterEGC) reported from San Tan Valley, Arizona

    @iOSMikeySpikey My biggest problem with Skype right now is that when someone else is screensharing it randomly contracts the size of the image, cropping out about 10% of each side of their screen. Sometimes restarting it fixes the problem, sometimes it just keeps doing it.

  • MisterEGC Eric Crichlow (@MisterEGC) reported from San Tan Valley, Arizona

    I generally avoid criticizing other developers or their work. But I make an exception in 3 cases: 1) Eclipse as the original Android IDE was terrible. 2) Skype screws up way too frequently 3) The Xcode team is criminally wasteful of resources and cleaning up obsolete files

  • tolajuwon Tólá Quadri (@tolajuwon) reported from Elgin, Illinois

    @boludmaestro I think it's a lot of things. For one Skype has had many issues around performance. Not to mention the many wrong moves by Microsoft to try and market it as an Enterprise product. Enterprise products don't do well with everyday consumers.

  • tamalyn1 •.✫Tamalyn✫.• (@tamalyn1) reported from Llandegfan, Wales

    My parents and technology! I do wish I could help directly instead of by skype Haha

  • Nateleysystems Rolly Chewable Toothbrush (@Nateleysystems) reported from Gosport, England

    On line the only way forward to market, for Products. No more travelling to meetings Skype is the answer, no need for expensive offices,no Business Rates, issue staff with laptop and good 5G. Then the social distancing will be complied with and the Virus will eliminated
