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.

BBPoor customer support/do not use Skype unless you have to I have found Skype good until you have a problem and loose your account. It is impossible to get any useful help on their chat line or through recover your account. Customer support is useless and you loose your credit. I have spent over eight hours trying to resolve this.

TRWhat 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?

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.

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!
