  Skype web calling isn't working, and I still have active credits. This feels like a scam. I keep getting a "please register your Skype ID" error. Please fix your ****. @Skype @MicrosoftTeams

  @SkypeSupport @Skype I was asked to send a direct message a couple of days ago. And I have been chatting with someone. And they stopped replying before my issue was resolved. I'm having issues with the translator. Why do you keep deleting my tweets?

  @Skype Skype can be a pain at times, chose create new account on windows 11 machine and there was no way to cancel and choose login instead.

  @Microsoft @Skype Why are you making it impossible to access my skype credit now that skype has been retired? By making it impossible to move or access my credit balance or to get support about this, you are essentially stealing from me. Since you closed down Skype and Skype Manager, you should automatically refund all unused Skype credit to the manager or user who purchased the credit. Why do the richest and biggest tech companies always have the worst customer support? Stop being evil and stop robbing people!

  They never give you a phone number for customer service and they don’t help anyone. The lazy customer service just locks the accounts to avoid doing any work. I was using @Skype paid services & now you won’t get a penny out of me. @Microsoft if you give a damn, @SkypeSupport

  @brintonyosaia @TheGrandZero @Skype teams has been around before that though. But yeah, I just noticed that they did shut these down back in 2025.

  Nobody is as upset about @Skype shutting down than @nyaraVT in the big 2025….

  @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!

  mister magnificent (@iBeLikeWater) reported 34 minutes ago

  @Skype I have the translator turned on and it's only working for the other person. The notifications appear in English but the actual conversation is showing the original language. How do I fix this?

  Hey, @ATT, I'm currently abroad and trying to get a hold of you to help unlock my device. Been trying to call through @Skype

  mister magnificent (@iBeLikeWater) reported 46 minutes ago

  @Skype I'm using the translator but it's only working for the other person. My settings are for English and it's appearing correctly in the notifications. But not in the chat itself. How do I fix this?

  .@Zoom @Skype @Webex how have none of y’all figured out a way to eliminate the awkward lag when your service is used for tv interviews???

  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!!!

  @Skype @Deepakbayofads My account is locked too for no reason. The chat kept me waiting forever and I never got to “chat”.You have a terrible new team at Skype. I use my account to call my elderly mother. She doesn’t have internet access and you cut off my only communication route. Brutal brutal brutal

  @equity_avenger My mom had the same exact person call us 17 times today from different numbers. They use @Skype and some illegal program to hijack other people's phone numbers. The FBI or whoever need to crack down on Skype.

  Welp, I suppose it's time to go back to @Skype since @discord is down.

  Robbie Ellis (@ellisrobbie) reported 58 minutes ago

  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
