  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

  So, it's been a long time, but when did @Skype become a combination of expensive to use, completely unintuitive, and broken?

  @SkypeSupport @Skype Using your service since the last decade and now it getting crazier by the day. Just made a purchase to call and the amount has been debit from my credit card but the minutes are not credited to my account yet. Extremely dissatisfied.

  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

  I use @Skype subscriptions for talking to my family in Iran. Yesterday, Skype suspended my account because of using their service and told me I should create a new account, rest of my current package is gone and they even won't refund the package. Amazing service and support!!!
