  .@ThreeUK anyone else who can’t make and receive calls because of the Three outage, try using @Viber Audio, I did and it showed my number on the other end too, I usually would use @Skype before but we know that’s no more.

  So after years of not using @skype (probably for 15 years), I get a charge notification for Skype Number, 12 month subscription, $29.94, Paypal, Delivered. My ability to get ahold of @skype or get help = 0. Anyone know what's up?

  When your job uses both @Skype and @MicrosoftTeams it's a lot like when you change cable companies and the new company literally rips out any of the old existing connections just to make the other company's life hell if they ever have to hook up service again. #GetYourOwnSandbox

  @Skype I DMed you 2 days ago and haven't heard back. Please check your messages as I had to set up a Twitter account just to contact your customer service - your live chat doesn't work nor does Facebook. I need help with canceling a subscription.

  I miss the simplicity of @Skype ‘Heres an easy to use calling package that suits what you want. Here’s a number in the area you want. Away you go’ Tried teams & it was terrible to use.. Not user friendly at all & the amount of hurdles you have to go through is insane

  Hey, @discord, people are starting to compare you to @Skype now. It's actually trending, worldwide. You remember what happened to Skype, don't you? Because of you? The irony would be delicious if the situation weren't so terrible. But you can fix this. You know what to do & how.

  @equity_avenger My mom had the same exact person call us 17 times today from different numbers. They use @Skype and some illegal program to hijack other people's phone numbers. The FBI or whoever need to crack down on Skype.
