absolutely useless absolute thieves. they will block brand new accounts as soon as it's funded. do not deposit to your skype credits or buy subscriptions from them as your money will be wasted.

It used to be a really good app It used to be a really good app, but the moment it became a part of Microsoft everything went wrong. First the interface, which is unbearable, then weird policies like security policy which no-one can understand and lastly user management, where you never know if you are looking in your phone book and looking for a Skype user ... Relatively simple and easy task, isn't it? But Microsoft (again) made it totally wrong - like everything.

Awful interface.Settings either in… Awful interface.Settings either in wrong places or completely hidden. Grid views never work properly. Caller windows don't appear. People can't see each other. No clear idea why certain video windows don't appear on main screen as grid - or at all - but may still indicate as 'connected' via circular profile icons at top. It's a complete mess.

Since trustpilot removed my last honest… Since trustpilot removed my last honest review of skype I refer readers to their overal rating, less than two stars. You see microsoft that owns skype is too powerful for a little place like sitejabber to publish negative reviews even if they are true. Likely to be my last review on this site, not an honest site,imo. And they want to track and ID you because you cannot post without logging into your personal email. Try sitejabber, much better.

What happened to Skype? This used to be a well functioning phone app that was a reasonably priced alternative worldwide when other phone services failed. Now it seems to be a Social Media wannabe that can't place a phone call. You can't even edit a contact entry. If MS wants to get into the Social Media game why didn't you just create an app instead of ruining this one? Weren't apps your core business?
