Skype is great product for audio calls Skype is great product for audio calls when the group of participants is not too large otherwise its gives audio voice issues. It is an average for video communications. Skype works nice for one to one communication but bad for more number of participants.

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.

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.

interface 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

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.
