    @Skype @SkypeSupport Is there a glitch right now? I cannnot find someone and they cannot find me. We have sent each other links and everything.

  • paulobsf Paulo Ferreira (@paulobsf) reported

    @virginmedia It is. Problem is I can't do any calls (skype, meet, zoom, slack, etc...) with any device without constant glitches, even if I'm sitting on the router or connected via ethernet cable. Big issue while WFH as you can imagine. My plan is for 350mbps btw

  • terrinakamura Terri Nakamura (@terrinakamura) reported

    @smokie62smokie Skype seems to be one that everyone has. For me there always seems to be a glitch on Zoom. People forget to turn on video, microphones or can’t figure out how to join the chat

    @ParmarV51042862 2/3 1. Which Microsoft products you were having issue with (e.g. Windows, Surface, Xbox, Skype, Microsoft Office)? 2. Can you tell us which version is it? 3. Are you getting any error messages that you can share with us (a screenshot is much appreciated)?

  • ChanellDomx 🇬🇧👹Mistress Chanell😇🇬🇧 (@ChanellDomx) reported

  • mcwhallen The Dude McWhalen (@mcwhallen) reported

    @RedDragon2008 @JediMVP Was it really saving the day? He could have showed up himself and defeated Kylo Ren. Instead he Skype calls in and dies. The most jedi thing Luke could have done was actually leave to go help when Rey said "Bruh empire back, your sister needs help."

  • neil_neilzone Neil Brown (@neil_neilzone) reported

    "Neil, since I can't safely see you over Christmas, can we have a Skype call so you can fix my printer, please?" And. So. It. Begins.

  • lady_appaloosa Susi Galley 🧩📚 🐴🐱🐈😺🐶 (@lady_appaloosa) reported

    @Kwik_Fit @MichelinTyres I would love to win as my Mum needs a tablet - she lives in Germany and we talk 3 times a week via skype. She uses my late Dad's tablet that is switched on and I ring - but the battery is not holding anymore. With lockdown I can't go there and help. This would be amazing

  • chris_bore Chris Bore (@chris_bore) reported

    @grimalkina Not this year but from 2007 to 2013 I worked mainly for a small company near Brussels whose wokforce was globally distributed. It worked really well. We used JIRA for task management, Skype for discussions, central get togethers for staff and family to help build a community...

  • karanssh karan (@karanssh) reported

    @blithesoul_ @kanupriiya Skype for business, but it's going to be shut down in 2021

  • BarclaysUKHelp Barclays UK Help (@BarclaysUKHelp) reported

    @ItalianInsider1 Alternatively, you can give the customer service a call on 0345 7 345 345 (24/7) or if you’re calling from abroad +44800111777 (24/7) IF you have Skype and are connected to WIFI you can call that second number for free. Kristin (4/4)

  • LeviRStev Levi Stevenson (@LeviRStev) reported

    @Gman97 @WideRtNattyLt @ReceDavis We had one guy on the phone, one guy with mic problems that had to use a gaming headset, and we were all on Skype to make it work. Cut us a little Slack.

  • MarinusUwU Marnix🏳️‍🌈 (@MarinusUwU) reported

    @verge Why hasn't Microsoft killed Skype yet? Or at least Skype for business. To me, it makes much more sense for them to fuse Skype for business and MS Teams and have Skype be the "normal" video calling service.

  • El_Gibso Calum Gibson (@El_Gibso) reported

    @TalkTalk as promised: just got a message saying Skype has used loads of mobile data. But I was on WiFi surely? Nah, it cut out. I now only have 300mb of data left until the 18th of Jan. That's been 1.7GB in 2 days because your service is awful.

  • sunildvr Stay at home (@sunildvr) reported

    So @Levis_UK has an international freephone customer service number: 00800 53847 501. But such numbers are NOT free from mobiles like @VOXI_UK - only from landlines. So what if you don't have a landline? @SkypeSupport doesn't recognise it as a valid number. Needless hassle!

  • Floamii Izzy 💦🌵 (@Floamii) reported

    @Telstra can you like hurry up and fix this my friends and I wanted to watch a movie together over Skype but we can’t now thanks Telstra out of all days to **** up you choose today
