    Skype is so unreliable. I don't know if someone is online, away, last seen 4 days ago or just blocked me. It can be anything. Shut it off and login again and see which one you get.

  • dwmilano DANNY WISE (@dwmilano) reported

    10.00 to 19.00. The number includes a charge of 0.08 euros per minute. Alternatively, you can contact DANNY WISE customer service The use is very simple. Whats app: 0039 371 1375821 Skype: DANNY WISE Client Service FB: DANNY-WISE-Client-Service Using these tools you can talk to

  • AlenL Alen Ladavac (@AlenL) reported

    @richgel999 Don't they all have EULA that effectively forbids you from using their service directly in a 3rd party software? Haven't checked SNs, but this was how Skype killed the last successful chat federation I was using, back in '00s.

  • zilevandamme Phumzile Van Damme (@zilevandamme) reported

    Microsoft Teams, like Skype for Business, collects three types of data about the app: what it calls census data, usage data, and error reporting data.

  • kilxler tony (@kilxler) reported

    @XboxP3 @majornelson @Xbox I'm begging at this point for Microsoft to reconsider enabling the Kinect for Skype use on the Xbox Series X via USB adapter. During this pandemic shutting down the Kinect camera to call family members is the wrong thing to do. #Kinect4Skype Please.

  • jacqui_james86 Jacqui James 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 (@jacqui_james86) reported

    @Derelict_Enough I like this, its success or otherwise hinges on whether or not I can log into Skype and fully switch off my phone in the one minute I have. ONE thing I do get right, is that I switch off my phone completely (full shut down) for all meetings :) Will give it a whirl 🙏 thanks.

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

    Im a nonthreatening feminist boy, come talk to me on Skype! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘systematic’ means.

  • roehlteacher Roehl Sybing (@roehlteacher) reported

    Skype tried to innovate a bit, and actually beat Zoom to group voice calls by years. But they made it a premium for-pay service and a lot of people said "never mind."

  • hkarabetsos2958 Holly (@hkarabetsos2958) reported

    @jordanaisbendy @lilririah Zoom makes me anxious. I'm not entirely sure why, because I can do FaceTime or Skype without an issue. Maybe it's the amount of people? Not sure...

  • GinIshiOkiru Vendela SW (@GinIshiOkiru) reported

    Which is funny because in elementary school I used to talk on Skype with friends and play games and stuff a lot and it was never a problem (other than me being bullied and them often not letting me into the call) but like I never felt like I was being too clingy

  • AudrenaKiss audrena (@AudrenaKiss) reported

    who wants to *** with me on Skype now $55 for a personal rub down 🥛👅👅👅

  • LovahLondon Pisces ♓️ (@LovahLondon) reported

    lemme fix my plate and skype @_RipPoohbear

  • InboundIke Inbound Ike: (@InboundIke) reported

    @roehlteacher The major difference for me is the last couple years we were in skype all our convos were autodeleted. Now all archived which is great if you forgot to write down a phone number someone typed in. Not great for liability purposes.

  • wil_twits Yellow Ribbon (@wil_twits) reported

    @MaamSyj Audit should be a partner in progress not a hindrance to development and public service. Kung bawal zoom, hindi yun public service...kasi wla nman alternative na offered..unless they gave you Microsoft Teams, or Skype. If no alternative is offered, then anything goes.

  • AgnesOfTheDogs Agnes (@AgnesOfTheDogs) reported

    I’m in a professional development class via Skype and it’s a guy telling war stories. I *hate* it when instructors do this. Stories are great for illustration, but I don’t need 15 minutes on how this guy’s company solved analysis problem X. 😖😖😖😖😖

  • lefriquet Tom Paine (@lefriquet) reported

    @yutzupracachia @Oldyssey @bagelpicbot When I speak French my british accent allows me errors not open to native french speakers. These online skype will be full of such 'errors' which will make it interesting for both parties.

  • MarkSlapinski Mark Slapinski Journalist (@MarkSlapinski) reported

    My biggest issue is getting people to do Skype interviews with me. Everybody I ask for one, doesn't respond, or turns the camera off. That's the missing link. There's a way to do it, I just haven't figured it out.

  • VintUKShop VintUK Shop (@VintUKShop) reported

    @SkypeSupport I changed my email address in my skype account (and received confirmation from you!) but it still wants to send password request to my previous email which I have no access to - please help!
