  @Skype I'm using the translator but it's only working for the other person. My settings are for English and it's appearing correctly in the notifications. But not in the chat itself. How do I fix this?

  Once upon a time, @Skype would just keep your paid credit for years. It would just work. Now they say "We're going to turn it inactive after 180 days and make you jump through hoops to reactivate it and oh yeah our credit systems are down so we can't reactivate it right now." BOO

  @Skype your support the #IranRevolution by offering free calls at a time the internet has been shut down in the country was greatly appreciated. Alas it was too short lived, while the revolution and crackdown continue. Any chance you'd like to renew your support?

  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.

  .@Skype I’m paying for Skype phone number. I can’t receive phone calls. I’ve tried your bot support oh sorry “Virtual”. I’ve done that “support” list, tried “support” more bots!, but I’m paying for phone # that still isn’t receiving calls. Any humans I can get help from?

  @Skype So how many hours do I have to wait for you to send me my login code? Thank God it's not an important conference. Skype is not to be trusted, obviously.

  @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.

  For over a month now when I Skype with my gf she can see herself in the camera window but not me, same for me. Any other app we use has no camera issue. But we love Skype. We reset the app, made new accounts, same issue. Is this happening to anyone else? @Skype care to chime in?

  Why the F @Skype has added random contacts in my chat list. There are so many random people chats (empty) in my Skype (now @MicrosoftTeams ) on November 29, 2024. I haven’t even logged in Skype and yet … this is causing a huge issue in my relationship… #skype @Microsoft

  @Skype your services have been down for almost a week? I can call my friends and family on their land line or mobile using my credit. I have now missed my mum's birthday and my parent's anniversary This is unacceptable!!

  @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 can you please make skype opens source as it would help make it more popular and useful then Microsoft adding random features thinking it will beat zoom Especially when Microsoft meet is it's "replacement"

  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

  It is mind-blowing that @Microsoft is standing behind @MicrosoftTeams as an enterprise product. - Calls never connect - Major message synching issues between mobile and desktop - Super buggy Screw your AI offerings, fix basic software first my peeps or give us back @Skype.

  No solutions whatsoever, $20 less in my account, cannot make the important phone call, 3+ hours with support with no resolutions. I am very angry. I want a refund and I am looking into alternative apps. FIX your program. @SkypeSupport @Skype #ScamAlert #badservice 3/3
