Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ATLien26_ Alan T (@ATLien26_) reported

    @Skype I'm in dire need of the most urgent help to fix however my skype was locked asap.

  • marknoble //.// (@marknoble) reported

    @luiscarrascob @Skype @Microsoft Skype lost the feature to record custom greetings long ago - so I can't tell people to Skype me instead of leaving a voicemail or simply hanging up, as most do. Instead callers just get a generic Skype VM message, which is... underwhelming for a paid service.

  • andrejonker Andre 🐦 (@andrejonker) reported

    I have been battling to get my paid for @Skype number fixed for so long, it is almost time for a renewal. @SkypeSupport, refusing to refund me for failing to deliver the service I paid for, because “it was bought and paid for more than 90 days ago”, violates my statutory rights.

  • andrejonker Andre 🐦 (@andrejonker) reported

    A @Skype number I had for years stopped working. #Microsoft will not refund it, since I paid for it “too long ago”. Last I check, this is not a legal reason for failing to provide a service or a refund in the #UK. Time to say goodbye to #Skype 👋 @Microsoft, you can do better.

  • HaroldRSeldon Harold R. Seldon (@HaroldRSeldon) reported

    @ICOffenderII @dergigi Beats the random customer service @Skype request from Beijing for blood type authentication from certain NotSoOkayCoin exchanges

  • jkellyfinwriter Jennifer Kelly (@jkellyfinwriter) reported

    @skype won't dial from my phone, the call button is greyed out, no help function, what do I do?

  • JoJo73278562 JoJo (@JoJo73278562) reported

    @Skype I’ve never experienced such a painfully awful live chat with your ‘customer service’ team. 40 mins of mostly waiting for replies, all of which were useless and unhelpful. In the end I had to just give up. Thanks for wasting my time #customerservice #thanksfornothing

  • Nelgumford Nelgumford (@Nelgumford) reported

    @Skype Do you offer a service where I could port an existing UK BT landline number over to your service and have it ring on a physical VOIP phone, plugged into my broadband router ?

  • playevrs melisa (@playevrs) reported

    @Sierrasimy @Skype My account was hacked for days before I was referred to @cyber_stech and I got back my account, he also help in recovering banned or disabled accounts

  • FranzGsottbauer Franz Gsottbauer 🇦🇹 (@FranzGsottbauer) reported

    @Skype This is all happening far too late. Why have they broken Skype for the last few years? Now they are trying to save Skype at the last second. Users have been telling them for years what is wrong. It is too late. All my Skype contacts are already somewhere else.

  • shiva_b2j Shivak (@shiva_b2j) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    Skype is also not working..@Skype

  • SovereignDigit1 Sovereign Digital Agency (@SovereignDigit1) reported

    Looking for help @Skype

  • marknoble //.// (@marknoble) reported

    @luiscarrascob @Skype @Microsoft The main argument I hear against it is "Well... then businesses wouldn't be able to call it because they block out-bound 1-900 numbers." I'm not seeing the problem here. Also, could be just a general 1-900 number and then invite the caller to enter an extension to be routed.

  • Frances43488456 Francesco Zappalà (@Frances43488456) reported

    @Skype hey I have a really simple question but I can't find any solution. So how do I sort my contacts in Skype? Like I want to make friend list, work list etc. But NOT group chats. Every tutorial I looked for explains how to create group chats which is not what I need. Any help?

  • CodersaurusX Codersaurus X (@CodersaurusX) reported

    @skype #skype your call facility is down. Please confirm.
