Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Skymningslandt Skymningslandet (@Skymningslandt) reported

    @wrathofgnon This problem (bad sound quality) has become increasingly worse since covid came along, so that people have to talk through Skype, Zoom and the likes. I often have to stop listening because of the poor sound quality nowadays. State of the art technology, eh! Hurts your ears.

    @QouBou I am interested but need to wait a month or so for financial issues. I'll keep it in mind when we have a little more extra money. via Zoom or Skype?

  • LuxuryTweeting sleve mcdichael (@LuxuryTweeting) reported

    @GreenNWhiteGoon @GovMurphy You can call people on the phone. You can text/zoom/Skype them. Suck it ******** up, stop whining and stop trivializing the problems of people who actually HAVE depression.

  • and_got andre götti (@and_got) reported

    @PatchJS What is the downside? As long as it shows that the message has been edited (like Skype does), I don't see a problem

  • mylankohler Mylan Kohler, DO (@mylankohler) reported

    @stephanieburgis People act like phones and Skype don't exist. O_o As someone who moved 16h away from my immediate family for my job, I don't understand why it's so difficult to do this one thing to help others. Yes, it's a sacrifice, but it's to ensure the future.

  • astrid__ivy Astrid Ivy (@astrid__ivy) reported

    @EmpressSaskiaa 🤢🤢 I had issues with this guy, even got as far as calling him on Skype as he promised payment as soon as I answered, he answered wanking and started recording then said he’d transfer half way through so I hung up immediately, honestly men like this are VILE

  • QueenTHERESA7 Mistress Theresa (@QueenTHERESA7) reported

  • LilyMarsWrites Lily Mars (@LilyMarsWrites) reported

    @Synnamintwist Do not be ashamed. But if you would *like* to give it a try I will help you! DM me. I know some good resources, and we could do a Skype thing or something. I've been working with some beginners lately so I have some idea of where to start.

  • Skeletondoggy Zack @ Making Tunes!!! (@Skeletondoggy) reported

    Tumblr is down...despite using it less I still feel like I am suddenly back in highschool and someone on Skype just said some insane **** and I NEED to distract myself, why does a website being down fill me with this feeling

  • fknjedi ❌❌❌💥Fknjedi💥🔞Onlyfans❌❌❌ (@fknjedi) reported

  • CptCheerful 🍻Ben Hodgkinson (@CptCheerful) reported

    @whatjoewrote I think Teams lets you record, and there’s supposed to be a way to get it to transcribe in real time (I think). They’ve basically moved all Skype for Business functions across, presumably with a planned obsolescence of Skype down the line.

  • lifesashow Meg 💜 (Life's A Show) (@lifesashow) reported

    @BrkMeLikAPromis Is he somewhere they could Skype your dad? I know it's not the same but I might help to provide him some comfort.

  • shrossy Simon Ross (@shrossy) reported

    One saving grace is that it is listed by Skype for Business and I don’t have to travel down to London tonight in order to participate in this nail biting game of chance.

    @JordanL__ Oh it was worse than mate, I was in the meeting room in the process of joining a Skype call and as it was connecting and the audio connected I put my phone in my pocket without closing anything down and it sounded like Mia Khalifa was having a Rubik’s cube rammed up her ******

  • ecammtweets Ecamm (@ecammtweets) reported

    @BrianFo74468780 @TrueKofi @BraunStrowman Hi Brian - sorry to hear that you're frustrated. Is there anything we can do to help? We do now have our own interviewing feature so you wouldn't need to use Skype or Zoom anymore alongside Ecamm Live.

  • hugojonker Hugo Jonker (@hugojonker) reported

    Interesting problem with #skype. I was screensharing, but other side wasn't seeing it, just black rectangle. So I stopped sharing. They were still getting a black rectangle. So I hung up. After the video feed was dropped, we still had audio. I couldn't hang up more though.
