THinterface to improve The windows interface of Skype is a nightmare. Everytime I spend a few dozen seconds to find the dialpad. Useless options like The "meet now" and "Get your skype number" which I will never use are really to invasive. It's not the cheaper voip call application but the call quality is usually good

FIGood for audio calls I'm satisfied with the quality of audio calls. I don't use video though. Skype comes in handy if you have a remote job and need to collaborate with your colleagues. As for other purposes, the features may not be enough. For example, if I was giving private or group classes, I would probably prefer a video conferencing platform instead. But it's up to you, I remember Skype language lessons were extremely popular before the pandemic. Anyway, what you definitely can't do on Skype is send large files. There's a limit of 300MB.

GBIf I could give zero I would If I could give zero I would. You pay money into your account to make calls when travelling. You return to your account to see what balance you have, lo and behold the balance is zero and you have NO WAY of finding out where it has gone. These people are thieves. Don't waste your money on this rubbish, use another voip app. The only reason I used it in the first place was that the people I wanted to contact were on it. Nope, Nope, No!

GBIn app purchase does not work I purchased an international call subscription on Skype and paid in app via Apple Pay. Apple took the payment but the subscription never came through. I’ve contacted both Apple and Skype multiple times about this and each point to the other as the responsible party. Apple refuses to refund the money and Skype refuses to activate the subscription as they say Apple has not sent through the required information. I have never had such a disappointing experience with an in-app purchase. This is outright fraud on the part of Skype.

THDisgusted If it weren't for my job requiring the use Skype, I would stop using it FOREVER. You repeatedly ban and block accounts without any valid reason. I attempted to reach out to the chat support, but they claimed it wasn't their department. Despite filling out forms and sending emails over the past 3 months, I have NEVER RECEIVED A SINGLE RESPONSE. I have thoroughly reviewed your policy, and I am not violating any terms. No contacts are being added, no bulk messaging, no spam, and no scams are involved. Despite creating new accounts, you persistently ban me. Yesterday, I wasn't even using Skype when you blocked me again. You must stop relying on bots; Hire more humans; there's NO ONE to contact about the issue. The chat support is utterly USELESS, to say the least. They disregard the problem description, respond with copy-and-paste messages, avoid my questions, and purposefully miss the point. It's like talking in a loop, repeatedly explaining the same thing to someone who isn't reading anyway. Frankly, I am embarrassed for you.
