Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RBrzozowiec Rhonda Brzozowiec (@RBrzozowiec) reported from Lancaster, New York

    @ScottLevinTV @WGRZ It would be nice if these nursing homes homes had Skype or something available for families. Ellicott Center is terrible

  • izzydoesizzy Izzy Piyale-Sheard 🇨🇦🌎 (@izzydoesizzy) reported from Toronto, Ontario

    @ZahraBhimani Let me know if you need any help at all. Even happy to jump on a Skype call if you'd like. Also note that Cisco Webex has made their video conferencing free and Zoom always has a free tier, but it has limited attendees.

  • jl_austin Jonathan Luke Austin (@jl_austin) reported from Genève, Genève

    Our institution is moving online. - a week ago, website went down, no explanation; - Moodle is still a mystery to most professors; - We have till now used, exclusively apparently, polycom; - I had to intervene at the last two phd defenses I was at to allow remotes to Skype in.

  • b0b_summers Bob Summers Ⓥ (@b0b_summers) reported from Donostia / San Sebastián, Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoa

    @dawnmkelly Looking at doing Skype classes which might work. Worth a shot, because if we're still shut after Easter I'll be off down the job centre

  • saramcgillivray Sara McGillivray (@saramcgillivray) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @MathieuFleury I believe so. It's set up by people in the area to either help check in on isolated individuals, offer small services like dog walking for people worried about being outdoors, and a place for people in need of items, help, or a check-in (phone, email, Skype) to leave their info.

  • alanjack Alan Jack (@alanjack) reported from Oosterhout, Provincie Noord-Brabant

    @abottleoftales Get on Teams/Skype and ask for help. Don't be afraid. You won't be looked on badly for asking for help, or for not knowing what (specifically) to ask about.

  • vfiorese_ Vico!🇧🇷🇮🇹🇺🇸🇦🇷 (@vfiorese_) reported from McKinney, Texas

    @TelcoDR No doubts! When there are no backhaul issues we need the centralized nodes to perform as well, and I'm with you on this one, I would love to know how the public clouds are behaving on services like Zoom, WebEx, Skype, WhatsApp, RingCentral, etc.

  • Beggsy_7 Marc Beggs (@Beggsy_7) reported from Limerick City and County Council, Munster

    Stealing this off a colleague! Looks like we could all have some extra down time over the next few weeks or so. If anyone would like to skype to discuss all things physio / rehab etc please feel free to contact me, would be delighted to arrange!!

  • D1n0nliDatGyrlV CocolosoQueenEmpress (@D1n0nliDatGyrlV) reported from Bronx, New York

    @aliakhsh @AreYouvIn @DOEChancellor @NYCSchools I'm gonna call tomorrow bc they need to excuse h.s. students also esp ones w/respiratory complications like asthma such as my child & I plus I have other underlying medical issues causing my immune system to be compromised.. they need let my kid telecommute via Skype for classes

  • richdunleave Aozora (@richdunleave) reported from York, England

    @Tony_young78 @berniespofforth No, they can't. Teleconferences and Skype are a terrible way to conduct serious trade talks.

  • majedalturisi Majed (@majedalturisi) reported from Aḑ Ḑuraysīyah, Al-Qassim Province

    @vishalseth @onedrive Office 365. All office products updated regularly with 24/7 chat support+ 1 Tb which believe me it’s a lot + Skype minutes. DP, considering the pricing is like a good neighbor who stopped to be willing to help 🤣

  • cliffordstott Clifford Stott (@cliffordstott) reported from Hoylake, England

    @ScouseTims We can try but she is too disabled to understand how to use the interface. We’re encouraging the home to set up a large tv with camera so families can Skype residents. But that’s not going to help that much with the massive isolation she will experience.

  • adamskimunkey Adam D (@adamskimunkey) reported from Salford, England

    This👇👇- @PlayStationUK has built in chat as does @xboxuk every office gets one and home and problem solved. Let’s be honest skype- zoom- wigwam- doc-sack- flimflam have nothing on these dedicated systems.

  • xskinn 🔥💧IanGraves (@xskinn) reported from Benalla, State of Victoria

    @MarieCalais2 I’m sure they’ll start doing consults via the Internet which will be problematic anyway,not everyone has the Internet,Skype or FaceTime etc. I usually see my GP every 10 days but I’ll see what happens,I’m an easy fix than many though. Ian

  • HogarthUK 🅽🅸🅶🅴 ™ (@HogarthUK) reported from Leeds, England

    @Webby317 A lot of MS services have gone down. Skype and Teams affected. Not good
