    @SamsungIndia @SkypeSupport @Skype I recently bought Samsung Galaxy M52 5G. Installed Skype. I am getting this error "Your connection is too weak. Please try again later." I am using a fiber line 100Mbps and using wifi. Not sure if the problem is with the phone of the Skype app.

  • Mayankk_1985 Mayankk Agrawal (@Mayankk_1985) reported

    @Skype having issues right now. Can's download or send any files. All other softwares are working fine including websites.

  • sharenao Bronwyn Jones (@sharenao) reported

    I was on a chat with Microsoft tech help for a problem with my @Skype account. And I'm assuming this had to be an AI bot : "You are most welcome. You have been very kind and I wish all customers are like you. I am glad that you are my first customer today. Processing it now."

  • leroumdeux Alex (@leroumdeux) reported

    @AppleSupport I left my MacBook Air M1 on my desk last night with nothing but @Skype running (and still, it wasn't in use), and it was set to go in sleep mode after a few minutes when on battery. The problem is that I found my computer with no battery at all this morning...

  • prameshbajra Suzal SM Bajracharya 💻📱💰 (@prameshbajra) reported

    So @Skype is not working properly? I cannot download files nor send images (they come as blank)

  • MrMercuryCat Mr. Mercury (@MrMercuryCat) reported

    Has anyone ever had an issue using @Skype to call a landline and the app keeps telling you the number is invalid or that your call has been rejected? No matter how many times you try?

  • sharenao Bronwyn Jones (@sharenao) reported

    BTW @Skype my account is still having problems.

  • entreprises_sos Sos-Entreprises (@entreprises_sos) reported

  • patrycjaholuk Patrycja Holuk (@patrycjaholuk) reported

    I tried to call, tweet and write on Facebook to either @microsoft or @Skype (for a week now) and got 0 solution to my problem. Honestly? You suck.

  • jklmli Kevin Li (@jklmli) reported

    10 year loyal Skype user until my account gets hacked. Skype says they can't recover the account for me because it's against their terms of service. True customer service @Skype @SkypeBusiness

  • VereigenMedia Vereigen Media (@VereigenMedia) reported

    My skype account is not working #skypeDown #SkypeSupport @Skype

  • aminjorati Amin Jorati (@aminjorati) reported

    I am trying to cancel my subscription with @Skype for a couple of months. I don't have the option to cancel it as per the instructions online. Writing directly to them has only resulted in a reiteration of what is mentioned online and there is no customer service number. Help

  • Napaaqtuk Dr. Kat Milligan-Myhre ❄️ (@Napaaqtuk) reported

    Shout out to @Skype for allowing people to make free 1-800 calls. My phone doesn't work in Kotzebue, so being able to cancel catalogs (12!!) & make flight arrangements on Skype so my dad can keep getting calls of support on his land-line has been a huge help.

    @CandyMan_ZA @Skype same issue
