  • Gdots21 A (@Gdots21) reported

    @Skype I know skype made calls to Iran free and I finally got to get in touch with my mom the other day. But today I tried to call her again and it would not let me and was asking for credit. Was wondering if this is a glitch or the calls to Iran are no longer free?

    @Maureen12683 @Skype Have you tried contacting @litetoolx for help?

  • alirezap94 Alireza (@alirezap94) reported

    Hey @Skype! Today I noticed that the 200 min call to Iran is removed from your offered packages. Instead of helping the voice of Iranian voice to be heard, you’re helping to shut it down. YOU SHOUD GIVE US FREE CALLS NOT POCKETING ON PEOPLE IN NEED!!!! #مهسا_امینی

    @Skype People of Iran needs your help! Can you make Skype available to the people of Iran free of charge? They need it to call the dictatorship governments' offices to condemn their policies and ask them to resign. #MahsaAmin

  • sanctionsexpert Sanctionsexpert.com (@sanctionsexpert) reported

    @Skype can you make the phone calls to Iran free? With the internet being shutdown by the government, your service is almost the only way to call people in Iran. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی @Microsoft

  • Justin_D_Martin Justin D. Martin | جاستن مارتن (@Justin_D_Martin) reported

    If WCup is about bringing ppl together, surely Qatar gov, Ooredoo & Vodafone will drop ban on @WhatsApp, @Skype, & all VOIP calls. Yes u can skirt ban by paying for VPN but network will be stressed during WC & calls w/ VPN might not work. This is safety issue not just convenience

  • Andrew_Kinsella Andrew Kinsella (@Andrew_Kinsella) reported

    @SkypeBusiness @Skype @SkypeSupport you are charging me £2.46 per month since March. I don’t use Skype & can’t find any record on my account of this payment or subscription. I can’t find anything useful in your bottomless Support - and cannot talk to anyone. Please help!

  • daneshmandi Ali (@daneshmandi) reported

    . @Skype I was wondering if you could help Iranian living abroad get connected to their loved one using your phone call service free for awhile? I am hearing a couple of mobile providers are doing this around the world but people’s numbers can be logged by the regime. #MahsaAmini

  • R1__Sam Saam (@R1__Sam) reported

    Thank you @Skype for making calls to Iran charge free while the internet is shut down by the Islamic Republic. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی

  • Alexggg9314 Alex (@Alexggg9314) reported

    If you or anyone you know is having trouble making contact with family or friends in Iran. @Skype just made free call services available.
