Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • joan_an_triu joan-an-tríú (@joan_an_triu) reported from Saxman, Alaska

    @WisdomToothDog @72stroopwafels Yes! That happened to me on my first few Skype lessons with a tutor (after a few months of hard study to get some basics down). I'd just go blank! Or be so focused on the few earlier words I recognized that I'd miss the rest of the sentence... So stressful!

  • KaraNSlade Kara N. Slade (@KaraNSlade) reported from Princeton, New Jersey

    @jathko @ianlasch This is all so weird. So weird. I don't want to try to do this in tweets, but if you ever want to Skype I'm down for it

  • NijlandMark Mark Nijland (@NijlandMark) reported from Rotterdam-Albrandswaard, Provincie Zuid-Holland

    How difficult can you make it @Skype @SkypeBusiness @SkypeSupport ending up with 3 icons, ‘lync’ is still in the url and they are not working together...#ux #scenarios #user #makeitsimple #

  • BrettMitchumm Brett M2 Proud Aussie Resister🇦🇺🇺🇸❤️🖤 (@BrettMitchumm) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @markjminer @bill_wints Problem is I’m sure they use Skype and spoof all of there numbers and some of them look legit....

  • GMRaphi GM Raphi🏳️‍🌈 (@GMRaphi) reported from Olten, Kanton Solothurn

    @fionapup ...if it's _not_ hardware related, you can have a friend (or even me!) log into your box via Team Viewer, and look at the system's behavior and load together. Add voice chat via Skype or Discord, I'd be up for it, and we might find and or even fix stuff. If it doesn't fix itself!

  • GabbarSanghi Ratnakar Sadasyula-రత్నాకర్ సదస్యుల (@GabbarSanghi) reported from Rājendranagar, Telangana

    Dear IT companies, in these days of Skype, Zoom. When everything is done remotely, your insistence on holding face to face interviews makes no sense, unless you are doing a mass recruitment. Half the day is gone driving down and then waiting for the interview.

  • nkumar_ Nitish Kumar (@nkumar_) reported from Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh

    Too many Skype/Team service degradation advisories from Microsoft within this month alone. What's going on.

  • cacarr cacarr (@cacarr) reported from Portland, Oregon

    @GilWhitedale @chrislhayes These are data-slinging pocket computers now, and too few people care all that much about voice quality for it to be too much of a priority. And increasingly people voice communicate over IP anyhow -- Skype, FaceTime, Duo, etc -- and that's not a carrier issue.

  • DannyGradio Danny G. (@DannyGradio) reported from Burbank, California

    @PeculiarBaptist @Jonesy_Wales @ClayTravis @ColinCowherd It’s not callers, it’s guests with bad Skype connections (something I mentioned on-air before.) But Colin never had problems with Skype until this week

  • matteastnz Matt East (@matteastnz) reported from Auckland, Auckland

    @lightweight @paulbrislen @billbennettnz That’s more of a behaviour issue, not a technology one, Skype, FaceTime, Jitsi can all be used while driving...if I if I’m on a call with someone who is driving, I end it ASAP...nothing is that urgent

  • speirin Henry Joseph-Grant (@speirin) reported from Berlin, Land Berlin

    @theboydigital .... But then @Microsoft acquired @Skype and the product quality went down the toilet, leaving a massive need in the market for @zoom_us I reckon the same could happen with @LinkedIn well for those that don't need recruiters and outsource dev studios spamming you.

  • jvholmes87 Director Nola (@jvholmes87) reported from Gukgil, Gyeonggi-do

    @VirtualPBX @Skype @Grasshopper @magicJack I may have to checkout your service too.

  • mrbrownandyou Mr Brown (@mrbrownandyou) reported from Pleasant Hill, California

    @MrsWard3 I think I found the issue. It may be a firewall proxy issue that will need my site techs to fix. I played with Skype on my personal computer here at home and had no issues.

  • QRailingLower MARINO 1 Alan L Clarke (@QRailingLower) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Whoop whoop and wahey, Josh n Me just come off skype with his Mum n Dad to find they're flying in on Tue to help out while I'm back in hospital on Thur 🤗🤗😘😘

  • purpleorchid369 Tara Sloggett (@purpleorchid369) reported from St. Catharines, Ontario

    @SkypeSupport As far as I know the Xbox updates regularly and there hasn’t been any changes I have made. I really appreciate the help.
