  @Skype I purchased a Skype number but have been getting calls from the old adverts of the previous number owner. It's been a constant pain and I'm unable to use this number for my business! I can't seem to get anyone for months via help!?! What can I do?

  Have any Christian ministries had trouble with @Skype or @SkypeSupport blocking access to their Skype or @Microsoft account repeatedly? We use a SkypeOut number for our ministry overseas and have been repeatedly blocked without explanation or apology.

  No idea why, but all my contacts on @Skype disappeared. How on earth?? I need a snowplow service, but I never memorized that couple's number. What a bother. Once a year number, you know. Skype is sometimes more trouble than it's worth.

  @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.

  @Microsoft @Skype I'm calling you out on your bullshit. YOUR Skype app is being freshly installed on YOUR computer from YOUR app store, and it's telling me that something is missing, and can't boot the app. Forget about YOUR help center, that doesn't help for ****. **** you.

  @Skype General Question to the TwitterVerse: Is Skype support as incompetent and as utterly unreachable as it seems to be or is there a secret to getting a human to deal with what Skype has made into an absurdly complex problem?

  Tyler Whitten (@TylerWhitten4) reported 35 minutes ago

  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

  @Skype After updating my password on Saturday, I'm locked out of my account. I get a message saying 'We've detected activity that violates our Microsoft Services Agreement'. I sent a message explaining this to the provided address but to no avail. Anyone else had this problem?
