@Skype Why do you insist on wasting my time every 6 months ‘deactivating’ my credit and need me to login to reactivate the money I’ve given you? It does NOT endear me to the product any further. I’ve been doing this stupid dance 2/year for 7 years 🤬

.@Skype I keep getting emails about recurring charges for an account in my name. The email associated is not mine and I have never seen it. Your account recovery system is not letting me in. HELP. I do not want my name being used on and cannot stop it!?!

@LidsAssist There is an employment scam using your company logo & information. They contact people abt employment, conduct an interview via @Skype chat, then issue you a fake check using the Lids company information. They also send a contract stating benefits from the company.

Hey @skype I need help. I have a subscription+number. Every time someone calls me the call drops immediately. Can you fix it? I've been going over your site trying to get support and I always end up in "Ask the community". I don't want to ask the communty. I pay and need support

@Skype @PremTung No that is not the problem. This is happening to me and lots of others as well. Every single time you get a notification for a message on Skype, you get a “call” from “blocked” that lasts a couple of seconds. every. single. time. this is absolutely insane you guys have to fix it

@Skype How can I change my Skype Name? I’ve been trying to do this since 10 years ago when I was still a High School student and I have a ridiculous name since then. I’ve never been able to use my account again because I’m ashamed with my acquaintances about this. Help!

Can't access my @Skype account. Every 'contact us' link on Skype/microsoft website links to useless troubleshooting pages that don't help. No way of accessing account to cancel my subscriptions, so I guess they're just going to charge me every month for the rest of my life now.

Why is Skype not auto-detecting automatically the typing language, it used to do it perfectly so when I type in French it will automatically use French settings, I use French & English on Skype & have it set up as French on my desktop, please fix. @Skype @windowsinsider @Windows

@skype's idea of customer service is literally just sending you to a message board. I was charged three times trying to cancel my account. Never using this service again.

What terrible technology @Microsoft has. Use of @Skype and @MicrosoftTeams conflicts always causing changes in driver settings & either one hanging. This is a leading global technology that the world "depends" on. How sad!!!

@Skype So, ultimately, and as I thought, there was zero point in PMing you. Apart from a phone number, there was nothing sensitive in our dialogue, and certainly no help. The main reason is to remove any public channel of criticism of @Skype/@Microsoft. Hopeless.

@Skype why is it do bloody hard to speak to a human to fix a technical issue ? Your support site structure is confusing to say the last and it seems you don’t want to offer actual support

@skype's idea of customer service is just sending you to a virtual agent or a message board. That's incredibly stupid.

(@mgoetzke) reported
@Skype I could arrange that, but the issue is quite clear. Whenever a call comes in, keyboard focus is transferred from whatever I currently do to the 'accept/reject' dialog. That causes me to basically always inadvertently either taking a call or rejecting a call and should not be
