Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Brandon_Daw Bdaw (@Brandon_Daw) reported from Yorkville, Illinois

    @waubonsee Skype is a virus and a terribly unorganized chat room compared to a discord server FYI. Both are free and one offers utility that can easily be taught quickly and the other one slows down every computer 🔥

  • MissAMWestcott Alexandra Westcott (@MissAMWestcott) reported from Tottenham, England

    @DINGLEMUSIC You don’t say if you have tried Skype. You should be able to get this on your existing phone or laptop. Setting it up for the right angle will take trial and error. I’m new to it and will learn more as I go along but so far so good.

  • helenmoonemc Helen Moon (@helenmoonemc) reported from London, England

    @eventmindpro @JulietTripp_ @EventWellChat @nicroames I have a colleague that has done Skype calls wearing shirt and tie up top, and pyjamas down below out of camera shot 😂

  • marikarauscher Marika Rauscher (@marikarauscher) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @BenThapa82 Interesting and good to know that provides a stable enough platform and audio🧐🤔 As student wants to go with Skype but have previously had audio interference issues. I’m hearing about and thinking of trying out Zoom ...

  • eyejewels Julia Claxton (@eyejewels) reported from Hove, England

    @quirkyantiques I feel your pain - 5 days after my 88 year old dad fractured his humerus his care home went into lockdown. Daily phone calls and occasional Skype when the staff have time to help doesn’t really make up for hugs but knowing the virus would kill him if he caught it terrifying.

  • HoBhimvz HoBhimvz 💜 (@HoBhimvz) reported from Pasig City, National Capital Region

    Early team meeting over FB video call. Not is Skype nor in Teams but FB video call 😂 My day 2 WFH. VPN seems working stable today. Hoping no issue until we’re able to get back to the office to work.

  • drkomanduri Krishna Komanduri (@drkomanduri) reported from Cutler (historical), Florida

    @VincentRK @BldCancerDoc Agree. Imagine if after this we could see routine second opinions and follow up visits by FaceTime or Skype and bill more reasonably. Costs would go down, patient and provider happiness increase and quality would likely improve or at least stay the same. Just need fraud checks.

  • bryden_culbert Bryden Culbert (@bryden_culbert) reported from Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Leinster

    We doing our bit to help people stay connected and to ensure we help all companies! Guys seriously if u haven’t used Microsoft Teams or the old Skype get hold of me and I can help get u connected with up to a 1000 E1 licenses per company!

  • sophiewross Sophie Ross (@sophiewross) reported from LaBelle, Florida

    If anyone from Lakes or any elementary/high school that needs help with chemistry/math/science/etc while classes are online, hit me up! I have Skype and FaceTime and could be of assistance!

  • Antproto ReverendAnthonyProto (@Antproto) reported from Matawan, New Jersey

    If you are postponing your wedding but still want to get married let me know Tone’s Wedding Service can handle weddings via Skype

  • therealgroper #JagerMadeMeDoIt! (@therealgroper) reported from Azusa, California

    @ABC7 your #skype interviews are killing me today, broken bandwith missing the audio

  • themisstoto big girl tingz (yes) ♡ (@themisstoto) reported from Fort Wayne, Indiana

    @itsbambibanks the kids are being homeschooled and we’re doing church service over skype

  • puso_motidi Puso (@puso_motidi) reported from Centurion, Gauteng

    @sandlasekhaya Yeap sadly... but companies had locked down travels and all meetings where possible are via zoom or skype

  • BeingChatterjee Sulagna Chatterjee (@BeingChatterjee) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    yes, this is a cry for help. I know I can't meet my psychiatrist. and Skype sessions don't work for me.

  • MimsCourtney Courtney Mims, WMBB (@MimsCourtney) reported from Lower Grand Lagoon, Florida

    @mikeda71 You are right, but the problem is no one wants to do in person interviews anymore and Skype is incredible unreliable I am finding out haha
