    @BarclaysUKHelp Hello. I have tried to contact Barclays Help via telephone/Skype more than a dozen times - Always without success. In every single call I waited for more than 10 minutes on hold with music playing. This is a shame and really frustrating.

    @Microsoft @Skype Why don’t you offer AR filter for your video option - would help to come on camera more often during business meetings. Not only background matters ;)

  • drhitchcocknz Benet 'Dr' Hitchcock (@drhitchcocknz) reported

    @PodcastHelper I was having issues with bleed from mic 1 into the channel that Skype was recording on. It's all working now, I'm not sure how I fixed it. I did change out audio interface from a Behringer UCA222 to a Scarlett 2i4 for my aux out; and from Skype to Discord for my interviewee.

  • ammarkhi Ammar (@ammarkhi) reported

    @Skype why are you not working properly 😡

  • badgertron2011 Stuart Quinton (@badgertron2011) reported

    @sternejohn @NadiaWhittomeMP Games console is not equal to a PC. Can play fortnight on both, but can't even run skype properly on a console. It's a software/firmware issue. However your newer android/iPhone can access the software to access educational resource.

  • casaout André Meyer (@casaout) reported

    @Kruemmelmonster Yes, it's crazy how they didn't use their headstart with Skype. I don't agree with Meet vs Teams. I use the teams web app with/without account very regularly, and it's really good. And yes, the web app experience on Zoom is terrible - they basically enforce the installation.

  • Sanju_Sriv Sanjeev Srivastava (@Sanju_Sriv) reported

    @SamsungMobile @SamsungIndia @Android Hi Team, after update to Android 11 I'm getting some noise in my headset and everything is going on silent. Everytime I have to reboot my phone after using any applications like Skype. Can you please check if there are some issue with os

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @Nannifer60 Paperwork is missing because of tidying. I was thinking should I ask for a delay. But if I am giving up why bother. A friend is willing to try and help but I can't do Skype or install What's App. Which I would have to do.

  • runningvlog Ijaz Movies🐋 (@runningvlog) reported

    Elgato wave 3 had issues with Skype. If I can’t resolve it in a day I might return it @elgato

  • william45126029 william Guzman (@william45126029) reported

    @sniffpetrol Not a problem with me. No one interrupts my time, therefore I can do more. I socialize via face time, zoom, Skype and what ever is available. I am not going to succumb to negativity.

  • pingdotlin ⋆ping.lin⋆ 🥐x🍙 (@pingdotlin) reported

    (12?ping)had a gf on growtopia and I literally waiter for ?her? to be on when I went home and sat on my couch and one day she wanted my festive dragon and added me on skype and we chatted AND SHE FR CALLED ME ok so I shut down my phone and wait a couple of hours and vanish

  • DirkStrauss Dirk Strauss (@DirkStrauss) reported

    @mbcrump Forget Social Media apps... Teams not knowing that I am actually working on my desktop, and feels the need to send notifications to my mobile drives me nuts. So much so I have logged out of Teams on my mobile. Skype doesn't have that issue.

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

    Ok... I just wanna find the dude that tried to groom me in 2016 when I was 13. I can't get the Skype chats back bc I hadn't used the acc since 2016 as well. I'm just... I want closure. Someone please help.

  • HeikkiNaski Heikki Naski (@HeikkiNaski) reported

    @kiwi @AlanJay1 @tomasfejfar Exactly. People have moved from email to skype and loved it at first, then hated it after a couple of months. Then the same with migrating skype to flowdock/hipchat/slack. The real problem isn't the platform but too many messages to too many people.
