GBI wish I can give Skype 0 stars I wish I can give Skype 0 stars. I have paid for credit which I have not received. This has happened several times and only after contacting them do I get my credit added to my account but on this occasion, they are saying they cannot see my credit as paid when it has been taken from my bank and I received a receipt as proof of payment. I contacted them again and they are saying they have applied for my money to be refunded. They never applied for it to be taken!!! Am done. Skype, you are dishonest and all bad deeds will return to you two fold.

GBAwful 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.

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.

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.

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!
