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.

Customer Service Non-Existent I had a subscription to make unlimited calls to the US (landlines) for over 5 years and it worked perfectly until recently. The past few months I have been unable to connect to a US landline without any explanation or customer service help. Skype makes it impossible to get in contact with tech support and disconnect the service. I kept getting charged monthly for a service I am not able to use. So happy to finally cancel my subscription and go with another provider. Good riddance.

I keep going round in circles with… I keep going round in circles with passcodes and being able to put money on my account t9 use. I go through forgotten passcode. Then I cannot remember the old email address and it does not allow me to receive codes by my phone number as it loops me. Tel 07825 323 211

Don't by skype credit, it's a scam I bought skype credit today. My credit card balance was charged, but skype mobile app show processing... then it got error and no credit added to my Skype account. Also, there's no way to content Skype's support. No email, no hotline and online help page is just like FAQ which just say check the payment, check the balance blah blah blah... I found no way to get my money back nor get the credit that I bought.

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.
