    @luiscarrascob @Skype @Microsoft I don't use PSTN *at all* so it irritates me that I have to pay for PSTN service via Skype so that 99.999% of the calls I get can be spam calls.

    A @Skype number I had for years stopped working. #Microsoft will not refund it, since I paid for it “too long ago”. Last I check, this is not a legal reason for failing to provide a service or a refund in the #UK. Time to say goodbye to #Skype 👋 @Microsoft, you can do better.

    @Skype Do you offer a service where I could port an existing UK BT landline number over to your service and have it ring on a physical VOIP phone, plugged into my broadband router ?

    @Skype hey I have a really simple question but I can't find any solution. So how do I sort my contacts in Skype? Like I want to make friend list, work list etc. But NOT group chats. Every tutorial I looked for explains how to create group chats which is not what I need. Any help?

    @JesseConStudio @Skype I got sick and tired of support not attending to me 🤮🤮..probably they’ve got too many people to attend to ..But all thanks to @AgentFemiTv they helped me resolve my banned account issue they are wonderful…

    @luiscarrascob @Skype @Microsoft Skype lost the feature to record custom greetings long ago - so I can't tell people to Skype me instead of leaving a voicemail or simply hanging up, as most do. Instead callers just get a generic Skype VM message, which is... underwhelming for a paid service.

    @Skype I’ve never experienced such a painfully awful live chat with your ‘customer service’ team. 40 mins of mostly waiting for replies, all of which were useless and unhelpful. In the end I had to just give up. Thanks for wasting my time #customerservice #thanksfornothing

    I have been battling to get my paid for @Skype number fixed for so long, it is almost time for a renewal. @SkypeSupport, refusing to refund me for failing to deliver the service I paid for, because “it was bought and paid for more than 90 days ago”, violates my statutory rights.

    @Sierrasimy @Skype I was able to recover my hacked account with the help of @agthwi. He is trusted and legit. Contact him. Am sure he will help.

  • marknoble

    @luiscarrascob @Skype @Microsoft The main argument I hear against it is "Well... then businesses wouldn't be able to call it because they block out-bound 1-900 numbers." I'm not seeing the problem here. Also, could be just a general 1-900 number and then invite the caller to enter an extension to be routed.

    @Skype the worst and the buggiest service lately! can't dial from my dial pad, people on the other line don't hear me or I don't hear them. Regretting topping up my account....

    5 hours and @WhatsApp is still down. I don't want to get crazy but I might open my @Skype and see what all my peeps have been doing for the last 5 years. #facebookdown

    @Skype Hello, PLEASE help! I've been locked out of my Skype account suddenly! I have used skype for over 10 years now with no wrongdoing. And I cant possibly wait days for it fixed, it's a necessity. My username is aterry02. PLEASE unlock this for me!

    @Skype This is all happening far too late. Why have they broken Skype for the last few years? Now they are trying to save Skype at the last second. Users have been telling them for years what is wrong. It is too late. All my Skype contacts are already somewhere else.

    Dear @Skype, My friends and I are trying to play a virtual game night together and your app keeps kicking us out of our call. Why is this happening? Do you hate social distancing? Please help.
