  @Skype it’s second time this week I can’t call from Skype to a cell phone. I do have credits on balance and help page is absolutely useless. Last time the problem went away itself, but it’s annoying

  @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?

  @Skype #robbery #theft report: I had a 60 min sub. After talking only 20 mins on the phone my credit ran out! I sent DM to @SkypeSupport and reported the issue, and they directed me to an imaginary non-existing team. If you like your money, avoid using #Skype. their reply:

  @Skype Skype comprises a combo of morons, idiots, & imbeciles. There's no way to contact anyone to correct an absurdly grotesque problem created by the above mentioned morons, idiots, & imbeciles. God save us from Know-It-All Techies! PERSIST! RESIST! RAGE! RETWEET!

  @MaxMoralesChile @MedhiGaurav @Skype in 2005 when I was in Iraq and Kuwait, Skype cut my monthly phone bill from $500 down to like $25. My thought was this is going to be a game changer

  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?

  @Skype @GooglePlay and @Paytm I have been facing an issue with Skype subscription,when I contacted Skype they told me it's Google's fault and when I contacted Google support they told me to contact paytm. I subscribed for Skype credits through Google,paid money through Paytm.

  @Skype @SkypeBusiness Full of error. Bad UX I've ever seen.

  Roma.Viaggio (@sweetylem) reported 44 minutes ago

  It is close to impossible to write an online review for @Skype. Their customer service is a joke! They reply at 4 in the morning just trying to take you off the social media. My account was locked for no reason, I was sent to a loop to find help. Nobody is answering on chat

  @Skype Why can I not use any of @surfshark VPN anymore with your service..? Both work fine on their own.. Please tell me how to amend this. I have tried every location possible on the VPN service and I cannot make any calls whatsoever

  @Skype I can't make call. I have 27 minutes left, but you are asking more money. I think you have problem from the beginning of this month and still not yet solved. There is no support. What's going on?

• 
  ankit_sharma (@anki_s6) reported 54 minutes ago

  @Skype @GooglePlay @Paytm But my subscription is not yet activated.The money was deducted on the same day,Paytm shows a successful transaction. So where is the delay???? Please resolve this issue as soon as possible or else refund the amount. Not expected from these BIG Brands

  @Skype please fix the video call issues here in the Philippines. We can't make video calls to the UK, US and other countries. 😧

  Mike Raymond (@mikeofkorea) reported 59 minutes ago

  No idea why, but all my contacts on @Skype disappeared. How on earth?? I need a snowplow service, but I never memorized that couple's number. What a bother. Once a year number, you know. Skype is sometimes more trouble than it's worth.
