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?

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.

Disgusted 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.

Microsoft Filth Skype gets worse day by day. The app UI is completely unusable. Call quality is terrible - even on the fastest connection. They are unable to notify you when credit gets low so you are just cut off when credit runs out. Lazy, filthy Microsoft scum are unable to think rationally or act decently.

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.
