I've lost all audio out....No one can hear me as of today....

I've downloaded the 'new' 3.8 and installed it and it still says I have v.3.6.0.248....

This has just killed my business. I use skype EveryDay to call clients around the world and basically....I'm out of business.

jaygeex commented Tuesday, Apr 29

Update to 3.8 seems to work only from Explorer not Firefox. do not know what happens with other browsers.

acceinlondon commented Tuesday, Apr 29

Works fine for me on Firefox.
Thanks guys for another iteration.
Keep'em coming.

genesteinberg commented Wednesday, Apr 30

It promising to me, but when is the Mac edition coming out? That would be more promising

This is an awful release. Not only is this buggy, as stated above, the promised fix for Skype in Windows Server 2008 is not in this! It still crashes on start-up.

It's almost as if you have just ONE guy doing all the coding and testing. Pathetic.

andyn3 commented Thursday, May 1

Still crashes on Windows 2008 for me too.

benjamin.orchard commented Thursday, May 1

I'll start using skype regularly again when it supports true video conferencing...does this release fix that?

I mean I like being able to do video chat with one other person, fine, but I've got a group of friends I want to hook up with all at once. Why can't skype accomodate that need? Fix that issue, and I'm back. In the meantime, I've moved to ooVoo, and I'm not really that happy about it since it kills my processor. All I want is light-weight video conferencing between me and five or six of my closest friends. Please.

jdawson4474 commented Thursday, May 1

Indicates an older version when you attempt to upgrade, even a manual update ends up with a version identifying itself as v.3.6.0.248 not 3.8...

mkaylor commented Thursday, May 1

I would also like to have some multi-point video conferencing capabilities instead of just point-to-point. That would be a major feature!!

Hooks in place to call a H.323 video conferencing system would be great to have.

Hooks in place to call SAP systems.

jmtvlim commented Thursday, May 1

my modem kept on crashing and i reported it to my ISP to replace it. i just discovered that for some reason, 3.8 was the one causing my modem to restart every time i log-in on skype. good thing i had a back-up installer of 3.6 on another PC to downgrade.

arowhena commented Saturday, May 3

The new version is giving me many problems of disturbnces!
Every time my contact speaks I hear horrible noices.

I have posted my comments in the forum: http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=129201

Basically I am a podcaster and this version of Skype thinking it knows best stuffs my audio every time I make or receive a call. I have told it not to alter my audio setting and yet it still does. I have to manually reset every time.

One of the worst releases of Skype yet. The forum post says it all.

pedro.a.cohen commented Thursday, May 8

How do I get rid of the VIDEO SELECTOR ? Does anyone know?...I got a page there with videos and I can't find the way to replace it or delete it all together.....I'd appreciate some help...BTW I have skype version 3.8

quranteaching commented Friday, May 9

We use skype in the office .Most of the time skype shows my contacts offline even them they are online . what would be the problem .We all (about 4 users) have the same problem . we have upgraded from 3.6 to 3.8 version also

michael.avanessian commented Sunday, May 11

Garbage... Update Firefox extension is broken. It breaks displaying jpg images by themselves such as.... http://test.com/image.jpg

Also, audio is garbled on some calls. This never happened with 3.6

Lastly, I lost speaker sound when making a simple phone call.

Reinstalling cleanly doesnt help. It's just the software.

lilycookiemon commented Tuesday, May 27

Recently, from Sunday 25/05 until Monday 26/05 I have been experiencing extremely long delays on my Skype (about 7 second, with and without video) throughout the conversation. On Monday 26/05, the other party and I both downloaded and use the latest version of Skype (3.8) and the problem didn't improve. Both of us have been using Skype for alomost 2 years and with our current internet speed, we have never experienced a delay as bad as this.

Anyone experiencing this same problem or anyone with any suggestions?

britbiker2 commented Monday, Jun 2

Downloaded 3.8 a couple of days ago 05/31 & no problems to date. I haven't noticed any improvements over the 3.6 version but maybe time will tell on the rate of dropouts, echo, etc. For the record I'm running XP Pro & Internet Explorer 7.

gsedgwick commented Wednesday, Jun 4

There appears to be a problem with the Firefox extension in Skype v.3.8. I downloaded 3.8 last week and have had problems with Firefox ever since - links not working, hangs etc. I disabled the Firefox extension ... NO PROBLEM!!

lmcjipo commented Tuesday, Jun 10

This isn't really part of Skype v3.8 (at least I don't think so) but what I like is the current ability of Skype to display a real phone number (currently limited to mobile numbers and Skype-In numbers) when making an outgoing call.

What I would like to see is this increased to include regular land line phones. I know that there has to be a way of authenticating the phone number (which is why mobiles are used because of the SMS ability) but with a regular landline phone, you can have something similar to PayPal Mobile where a call is made to the landline phone and an automated PIN is read out by the system. The user can just key in the PIN from within the Skype webpage which authenticates that the phone number actually belongs to the user.

aauthors commented Friday, Jul 4

Good news - OK , first of all Skype in the past and in this latest version so far is very good. I do get some people telling me they hear an echo
(sometimes not all the time )when I am called from Skype to a regular telephone. How can I adjust this ???

I use two kinds of mics , one is a table mic which normally works quite well ( hey it's 3 bucks ) the other I use is a Heil Pro Headset , and I usually it fine on all accounts including using the Pro version of Pamela Recorder.

ONE THING I'D LIKE : Can you fabulous people at the technical end please consider including a VU meter in the Skype program. This seems like a no brainer but you forgot it , and any audio professional would tell you that's important ...and not hard to include.

Meanwhile I am quite happy with the product I'd give it a (7.5 out of 10 ) , but keep the improvements coming ...and keep thinking of inventive marketing ideas. Then you'll stay where you are - the best !

Since I downloaded 3.8 version, I can barely hear the people on the call. There is plenty of static, interruptions and overlap. The quality is bad even simply offline the ringtones are also staticky and discontinuous. What can I do? With the 2 version I was using sound quality was excellent!

webcoder.eu commented Friday, Apr 25

Hi!

I have tried using preinstalled skype on my N73 with "fast 3G". It's very unreliable and usually can make you pull your hair out from aggravation.
The same has been happening with normal Mac/PC client. More and more people are complaining and stopping using it because of the bad quality of VoIP. I usually have to repeat most of my words to many people abroad and in the country who are on very fast ADSL connections. Unfortunately, am forced to look for a telephone solution to save my nerves. It's a shame to see skype doing progressively worse and worse each year in all areas business and private too...

raymember commented Sunday, Apr 27

HI

I tried with a friend the mobile program of skype on our Nokia N95's, logging in is very simple and I see him on the screen Online, but when i select him i only got the CHAT option and the option to view his profile, but what we both don't get is the CALL option, what do we have to do to make that one functional?

Hopefully some one can help me with this.

fellida commented Monday, Apr 28

It's really looks out as a bad joke To pay a local or national call on my mobile for contacting other Skype user??? Guys, you're crazy! The only reasonable expence might be cost for EDGE/3G traffic used for this call. If this your new project is based on the using of the mobile networks voice services (not mobile internet), it will be absolutely useless.

ketzkarov commented Wednesday, Apr 30

Doesnt work on SonyEriccson W810i, although is listed as suportted it instals, but when i start Skype, it tells me it I should allow connection to internet.. or something like that...and my internet on the phone runs quite well... i have google maps and mail, and i allowed connection from the permissions menu..
Hope someone fixes this bug soon..

pappsegull commented Saturday, May 10

Nice if "Skype For your mobile" did work on the same way as on my PC. So I didn't need to pay local calls, to call another Skype member. Just use my 3G connection in my cellphone.

Is that possible? Maby when you take it out of your beta release:)

What about "- Skype to Skype calls will ALWAYS BE FREE"???????
Or you might lose many customers!!

martin41911 commented Sunday, May 11

The Q&As on the Skype website are completely confusing and do not answer the most basic question – i.e. Is it real VoIP on all phones? Well after loading the Java applet, you find it isn't real VoIP!

For example: I have a 3G phone (Sony Ericsson K800i) running on the UK's "three" network. I eagerly loaded the Skype app, and read its help section in the menu. Strangely, it tells me that Skype will dial a "local" number to make voice calls. But that is precisely what I DON'T want. Rather I want to be able to make VoIP calls directly using my phone's in-built 3G web access (as I have an unlimited data plan with ‘three’). In short, if this application won't allow me to make direct VoIP calls from my phone, and not only that, but it will also get my 'three' phone bill loaded with regular call charges, then it is completely useless to me. I might as well dial through a 'cheap-call provider like Telestunt (0844 861 8888) to get 1p-per-minute calls the USA, for example. And they don't ask you registration questions.
(note: I don't want Skype for word messaging).

Skype Video Calls from a mobile:

I own the HTC P3600 which is a great PPC! Is it possible to make a video call from my P3600 with Skype?

My carrier (AT&T) in the US has 3G but their hardware does not recognize the P3600 as a video conferencing phone. Sillyness, they do not have a selection tab on their internal system to activate it. I can use Skype from my P3600 but for voice calls only.

Woody
I would be nice to use a Skype for video conferencing. How?

jeromejscott commented Friday, May 23

A collossal white elephant of an application - cost to download, cost to call, cost for others to call you, cost me a waste of time to find all this out. And no video call! a major reason for using skype in the first place. This app smells like they've slapped their brand name on something that is totally the opposite of what skype is meant to be - VOIP! (and free) This like a big step backwards to a kind of medievel call charging scheme that the fixed telcos use. What next? dark ages operator connections? prehistoric line drops? oh, we're already there.

It seems odd that most new phones are coming out with video call camera I have a Nokia 6500 on Hitchison3 network with the little video call camera and it is totaly useless. So much for this intimate partnership with Skype & 3 This application has no link to 3 whatsoever.

beta? more like: worser 1.0

Hi

I live in London, UK and call my friends and relatives in my native country Sri Lanka very often. I have a Nokia N95 8GB phone on Vodafone network, however it does not support Skype.

Recently I came to know that 3 promote Skype on 3 Skypephone and I visited their store. However, I found that buying a Skypephone would not solve my problem as it only enables me to make phone calls those who are online with Skype.

What I am really interested is finding a cheap way to telephone calling cards as I spend good amount of money for same. if you have any other alternative solution how Skype can help me to bring down my calling cards cost, please be good enough to let me know.

Thank You

But, what ARE you doing, staff at Skype? When trying to install this Mobile Beta on my Nokia N95 to finally be able to uninstall Fring, I get totally stuck. I am asked to fill in my mobilenumber. At this point I realize that I'm fooled. This is not a VOIP application at all.

You made me really angry and disappointed. I became a Skype-client in order to make as cheap calls as possible. And since my N95 has Wifi/WLAN there is no use to re-route Skype-to-Skype calls via expensive mobilenumbers. As so many has pointed out: What happend with "Skype to Skype calls will ALWAYS BE FREE"?

While waiting for you to reconsider and reprogramme a VOIP-application the recommandations is to use Fring to log in and use Skype in your wifi-mobile.

Whats really got my goat is that when i downloaded skype beta to my nokia n95 i stupidly thought that with the w-lan connection on my phone, & me having a router attached to my pc i would be able to synchronise the two and be able to wander around my house chatting away to my friends instead of having to sit at my pc lookiing like a call centre worker! why cant my mobile just be used as a wireless conduit for skype?

azjeremy commented Monday, Jun 23

This software is absolutely useless. I live in the USA and have a nokia N95. Why am I paying to use my daytime minutes via my router? This is nothing like a mobile handset, and is an insult to my intelligence! Skype is trying to make a buck here by freeing us from the computer, however you have not done that without the expense of airtime. If I wanted to call at night when minutes are unlimited, I would bypass the entire skype process. Fring does not work perfect, it hogs a lot of battery but it puts this BETA TO SHAME!

sesatvoip commented Saturday, Jun 28

In my opinion all it need to do is connect to a WiFi just as my computer does. It does not need to use any cellular time, it doesn't need to use Skype Minutes. What is so hard about that?

sesatvoip commented Saturday, Jun 28

I agree with "azjeremy". Seems like Skype should be working on ways to get new customers rather than ways to exploit customers. Belkin sells a stand alone phone that does what we want. Is it beyond reason to think our wifi cellphones can't do the same?

tirolboy commented Sunday, Jul 6

All I can add to this forum is that Skype on my mobile 3 Skypephone works very well, in fact the quality is far better than Skype from my PC. The only snag is one cannot utilise the Skypeout facility, but Skype to Skype is great. Understandably 3 has to make a buck somewhere! If the quality is not there with SFYM then its a non starter.

s.wetzel commented Wednesday, Aug 6

Don't trust new features, if skype can't make the old ones work.
Example: It is not possible to re-register a previously used mobile phone number as sender-id. No new verfication code is being sent.
The problem is apparently so well known that "support" doesn't even bother to reply to requests. Wake up folks und do something about this effing SMS-prob. Or people will switch to other service providers.

marcel.egloff commented Monday, Aug 18

This I find very strange:

Many companies (like Skype) have tons of requests about the iPhone in their blogs and the usually very customer friendly team seams to ignore them all!

What's the problem here? Can someone of the team at least tell us why you don't even acknowledge these requests?

Do you understand?!? I am not asking you when or if the iPhone will be supported... I am asking you why you keep so silent! Don't you think this is a valid request?

Thank you for creating this software for our mobiles! There were many alternatievs, which were demanding money so you can use their software. Now - I think it would be very nice if you add "Rename Contact" function. The way my friends are writing their names is freaking me out! On my PC version I have my list changed the way I want to display their names. It would be great if I can do that on my mobile, cause I cannot recognize who I am talking to. Thank you in advance!

geraldkhwoo commented Tuesday, Sep 2

I haven't tried testing out this new beta software beceause I'm kind of puzzled at why we have to enter our mobile number in this software. I recall being able to access my hotmail account without even having to enter my mobile number. A question comes to mind when I see this blog... Is Skype for your mobile really free? Seems like a magnet for attracting a lot of hidden costs. I noticed some people mentioning the usage of their mobile service minutes while using Skype for your mobile beta messaging or calling Skype to Skype prior to viewing this blog. How would that still make Skype for your mobile beta free if your calling Skype to Skype and still spending mobile service minutes? The Skype for your mobile beta should work like how PC to PC would work, otherwise I don't think that's VoIP. The website should do a better job at the descriptions so the customer would be better informed. Using Netgear Skype phone for example, now that's a real VoIP phone. Now is just for Skype to integrate that to mobile phones that already has internet subscribed with the mobile phone, instead of having to connect through WiFi access points.

SFYM beta works well on Sony Ericsson W810i and K750i phones. Just gone to latest beta, 0.9.26 I think. Nice clean, simple user interface. Connecting the thin client doesn't rinse too much data over GPRS, I reckon about 6-10k for an average call. Then connects to a landline number which comes out of my contract minutes.

SFYM is a killer app for my knackered, ageing Sony Ericsson phones!

ken_holder commented Friday, Oct 17

I just don't get it! Why would I want to call a local number with my mobile to make a Skype call when I have Wifi on my phone and a wireless LAN in my home & office?

(Actually, I'm in China at the moment, and Skype beta 0.9.26 is trying to force me to call a local number in Sydney, Australia, in order to make a Skype call. This is crazy!)

Skype, what were you thinking????

I'll be deleting your app from my phone because it provides me with zero benefits.

paulpolotnianka commented Sunday, Oct 19

Recently acquired N95 8GB and after reading comments on this forum i am disappointed that the beta is not true voip or rather not offering the same great benefits of pc skype. Accountants running skype? it seems that this is a business decision to generate opportunities for new charges. Sad. Why skype cannot operate on a wi fi enabled mobile phone like it does on a pc has less to do with technology than making money.
i have noticed a similar 'philosophical' shift with another, once great, product driven company - ebay. Same accountants perhaps?

willy.alfaro commented Sunday, Nov 2

Well, after a long waiting Skype mobile for my Nokia n81 I have to admit that I only had it installed for 2 minutes and then deleted. I downloaded it from www.skype.com/m in my phone directly. I could not make a phone-to-computer call among Skype users, don't know why. There are many confusing "rates" to use it. The application should be like the one on my computer, if I call a phone I use my Skype-Out credit, if I call a computer it´s free. I have no idea what is the Skype plan on this mobile app, but it is not what we users need. Next version bring VideoCalls, by now it is useless.

this beta version it sucks!!!! you cant make a call,only you can chat.when you fixe it tell me to know,for now the fring version is the best for me.

solutionsresults commented Sunday, Nov 30

To Ken_Holder - not getting it.

The feature you are trying to use is not for your situation.

If someone is in Europe trying to call the USA (just an example) instead of paying for an international call rate from their mobile carrier which would be very expensive, they can call a local access number and then call overseas and it would only come out of their monthly local minutes. So if they get, let's say, a flat 400 mimutes per month on their subscription, it would come out of that and not be charged as an international call. It was designed for a cell phone with no wifi access around.

It seems, from reading this blog so far, that the real issue is that when Skype is on a cell phone that has wifi capability, the Skype app doesn't always use the wifi access over the regular cell phone access. It appears it's deflecting to the cell minutes instead of the wifi.

I think it's the definition of beta. If on a wifi only phone, like the Belkin or Netgear it will work. If on the PC, no problem. If on a cell phone there's 3 options - 1. the local call minutes to save on international calls that comes with the subscriptions, 2. using the wifi capability of the cell phone and 3. using the data usage part of the cell phone.

I believe that it needs our cell phone number, not to charge us cell minutes and end up using a regular phone charge, but because the data usage is charged via our cell phone number. So if I have a phone from AT&T and pay the $24.99 for 20MB of data per month, AT&T charges me that MB data usage on my contract which is signed up through my cell phone number. I can't verify this but, unless I missed it in reading these comments, I didn't see anyone say they ended up with voice charges in their bill. All I've read, and please correct me if I am wrong, that people were put off wanting to know why they had to enter their cell phone number. Again, I'm only guessing, but I do know that my data does get charged via my cell number. I do agree that with other internet access activities, I need not put in a cell number to go around the net, so it does seem odd to have to for this. I would be very interested to see if someone put in their number and got charged minutes. I'll re-read the comments to double check if someone said their bill did have voice minutes on it.

What I'm am only guessing is happening, is that the beta version is having trouble 1. working at all and 2. flipping between wifi usage and data usage.

So, bottom line - the beta isn't finished yet. Doesn't sound like it was tested enough. We would hope that beta would "almost work" and only convoluted examples would come up. Sounds here like all examples are coming up. Also sounds like perhaps voice units are getting clocked instead of data units. That could be the phone issue or the provider issue or the Skype issue. Little hard to tell. Can't see why an AT&T or any other provider would want to work to resolve this for Skype since I would use my Skype subscription always and never use a cell minute again. Like one person said above, the 3 Skyephone lets you use Skype-to-Skype calls but not Skype Out minutes. Otherwise, the 3 provider (3 is equivalent to AT&T or Vodaphone, etc.) would have no voice revenue at all and would be bankrupt in a day. Somebody has to foot the cost of putting up cell towers, etc.

mghtyred commented Saturday, Dec 6

We have heard NO news on a Skype app for the Android OS.

VoIP startup TruPhone has already stated they are developing an app for Android. I and many Android/Skype users would prefer to stay with Skype, but are prepared to switch VoIP carriers should Skype decide not to support Android.

We don't want to see that happen, and look forward to development of an Android app. Please update with any information on a Skype app for Android.

ketzkarov commented Friday, Dec 19

After reading all the comments, I downloaded latest beta and installed on my SE W810i (the carrier is AT&T, former cingular, USA)
I can log in only after i used internet connection with other application, otherwise skype does not recognize my net connection i.e. I need to start first opera, and connect with opera, then exit opera, and start skype(Beta)
Any1 else having the same problem?
and besides, it tells me that cant connect through socket and will use HTTP

Another question may be, when we will be able to use call feature in USA?

pauldub1 commented Friday, Jan 9

Marvellous! I just downloaded Skype Beta for my Nokia E51 (Used Nokia N95 download link). It seems I was naive to think that I could use my phones WiFi to make calls through my Skype subscription, via my broadband router,just like with my Belkin Voip phone.

It appears you can only use the chat app and not skype out. Are these guys for real? I thought this was supposed to be Voip? Well, I won't be using Skype so, have to find another provider. Anyone used Fring? How is it please?

darius.lazauskis commented Thursday, Feb 5

Why not SKYPE to SKYPE calls on E71? In case windows mobile Smartphone call option is available but for Nokia is missing. What is the reason? It would be more convenient when connecting to WLAN to have SKYPE to SKYPE call option. I would not keep SKYPE on my PC and would use on phone at home and office. I expect some problems will be caused by incoming mobile network calls, but that should be manageable. Anyway priority calls are mobile network calls.

dragrace7 commented Wednesday, Feb 18

Hi, I just had a pretty bad experience today. I have checked with 3 network that I do have free 3000 minutes a month to use on Skype to Skype. I have an account with Skype for outgoing calls as well which I am aware I pay for when I make a call from my previous Nokia 6120 or now from Nokia E71.
But what happened today puts me off using Skype on my mobile. I had an incoming call from another Skype user which I have not been charged from before using Nokia 6120 but today those 33 minutes cost me 4.93 GBP what is way too much!!!! Skype to Skype for free???????? Where have I heard / read that???
I think this is a very unfair way to make money. If I am already paying for the mobile plus the internet charges, what is the reason for Skype to charge me this crazy rate if I am getting a call from another Skype user, not matter if from their mobile or pc/mac Skype version????

I would love to hear some answers to this problem, which I believe is going to be raised more often then only few times.

I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY KIND OF TRUE REPLY TO THIS FROM SKYPE TEAM

Hello, are any possibilities to use skype video call for Nokia 6500 Slide? are any skype versions?
thanks

yaron.goldstein commented Monday, Jun 1

I love it! since I installed it on my E71, I'm connected on WiFi at work / home or 3G on the road. It replaces most of my SMS needs, since I can chat with other Skype users instead of sending SMS all the time + you have the chat history which is great!
If the VIOP call where free, it would be perfect!!

Hi

I am in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I want to be able to use SkypeOut from a mobile phone here to call phones in the UK.

Someone who works in Telecoms here told me that the call quality would be terrible and said 'don't bother'. Is that the case?

Which provider has the cheapest plans for lots of minutes a month here?

Thanks

wanwisa_u commented Saturday, Nov 28

From this page http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/skypelite/ , it seems like everything is money. Even to be online Skype from your mobile. That's scary!

In the other hand, it might not be Skype fault. Wouldn't you guys think that it could be all the mobile phone provider mafias in every country don't allow Skype to connect WIFI as it's going to replace mobile charge?

Because it could be the only reason why Skype launched such a stupid useless mobile app.

Looks like the CEO has a real good head on his shoulders... maintain laserlike focus on further innovating your core competencies (sound + video + good UI), and get rid of the pain-points, big and small. Solid!

Suggestion: employ a multidisciplinary team to get a fresh look at current usability ("in the field"), then transfer the insight gained to the Tallinn engineers for efficient user-centered design.

This probably will not get approved by GOD. I would like to thank you for stealing $11.00 from my account via your sorry expiration scheme. In the US when you pay for something you get to use it, I guess you guys think different. I intend to tell all my contacts not to do business with skype due to your policy and due to the impossibility to send an email to anyone that gives a damn. I realize that you will censor the comment - as they do in communist countries - but at least I have had my say. As your the $11.00 - you figure out where to shove it!

Mr. Silverman

I’ve been an extremely satisfied “paying” customer for several years. When I went to renew my current Skypein and Skype out plan I became a very unsatisfied customer.

I spent 30 minutes searching trying to find how to simply renew what has been working. I finally gave up and chose to not renew my SkypeIn plan because of how you have chosen to make this so difficult with things like “Subscriptions” the “Business Control Panel”, “Pay by the Month”, “Skype Pro”.

It doesn’t need to be any more complicated than Skype-In, Skype-Out or Free Skype-To-Skype.

For help leading Skype in the proper direction, take a thorough read through Seth Godwin’s blog http://www.sethgodin.typepad.com/ His writings might help you and your employees get their heads around the notion that “Less is really more”. At this point, the Skype web site has turned into a disaster to navigate.

Because of this, it cost your company somewhere between 30 and 60 US dollars.

In the words of that famous American philosopher Dr. Phil, how’s that working for you?

alexbaban commented Wednesday, Jun 11

Dear "Skype",

I would like to say that using the "My Account" area of the web site is totally... well... un-usable. It's poor desing, gives you a headake just for a simple task like extending your subscription. Links send you to the wrong place, so you have to come back, and for a task that should take 5 minutes, it takes you one hour if you are lucky. Dear CEO, get your act together and put the links and buttons in the right place where they are supposed to be. Make yourself a new account and impersonate a user. Try to do what users have to do to use Skype and you will understand what I am talking about. And how about some easy and clear way to contact your customer service, which is the basic of any company doing business with customers (at least give us an e-mail addres FGS). I'm very upset.

Thank you.
A.B.

PLEASE READ ALL MY EMAIL AND RESPOND ACCORDINGLY, I KNOW WHAT I PURCHASED AND WERE I SPENT IT........;BEFORE ALL THIS CRAP TOOK PLACE, I HADE A BALANCE OF $0.01 DOLLARS IN MY ACCOUNT FOR THE LONGEST TIME, ON JUNE 21st I TRANSFERRED A TOTAL OF $40.00 DOLLARS TO COVER THE RENEWAL OF MY SKYPE PRO SUBSCRIPTION WHICH WAS AVAILABLE TO DO SO FOR ANOTHER YEAR ON MY ACCOUNT DETAILS ON THE 19th OF JUNE, I DID THIS BECAUSE PAYPAL WAS NOT SET UP CORRECTLY,( I'M NOT STUPID OK, I DO READ AND VERY CAREFULLY AT THAT). AS STATED IN THE DETAILS AT THAT TIME (When there is enough Skype Credit available in your account this subscription will be automatically activated) IT DID NOT ACTIVATE PERIOD. THE IDEA WAS TO COVER THE COST OF THE RENEWAL $36.00 AND HAVE A BALANCE OF $4.00 DOLLARS PLUS THE $12.00 DOLLAR I WOULD GET FOR RENEWING SKYPE PRO TO MAKE CALLS TO VENEZUELA ON MY SKYPE TO GO NUMBER THAT WAS WORKING FINE AS OF THE 6 OF JUNE. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT MATH YOU DID TO COME UP WITH A BALANCE OF $28.01 DOLLAR.

AND WHAT HAPPENED TO MY SKYPE IN SUBSCRIPTION I HADE TO THE 3 OF JULY FOR IT TO EXPIRE?
WHO CANCELLED MY SKYPE PRO ACCOUNT?

BENJAMIN I WOULD LIKE MY TICKET TO BE ESCALATED TO A SUPERVISOR, I WANT SOME ONE THAT CAN MAKE A DECISION ON THE SPOT REGARDING MY CONCERNS AND MY VALID COMPLAINTS REGARDING MY ACCOUNT, SOME ONE THAT DOESN'T TAKE SO LONG TO RESPOND A SIMPLE REQUEST, SOMEONE THAT ADDRESSES EVERY QUESTION IN MY EMAILS. I WILL HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO DROP SKYPE ALL TOGETHER, THIS IS MY LAST EMAIL TO HELPDESK, SUPPORT OR TO SKYPE IN GENERAL.

I'M PISSED, I'M VERY PISSED OFF. I CANT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING....................

My credit has expired also which shouldn't be legal it is money that they are taking for giving no service.
I wonder if my bank would like it if I took a loan from them and then told them it had expired and they couldn't get it back.
What is the world coming to when money is though of in this way and can become expired I don't think it is fair.

uxio69 commented Friday, Jul 18

Dear Skype CEO Josh Silverman,

Yes, Skype needs to listening customers!

I really agree with you, and I hope that you improve this.

But, why is so difficult to contact Skype support?

Skype support is the worst support than I already contacted.

It's not easy to contact Skype support through webpage.

Skype support does not have an e-mail.

Skype support does not have a phone number.

Skype support does not have a skype number.

Skype support does not have a chat online.

I live in Salvador (Brazil). I use Skype to contact my friends who have Skype in their computers.

Next september, I will travel outside my country, and I would like to use Skype to make and receive phone calls.

I have some questions about Skype, and I can't found all the answers in the Skype help webpage.

I sent 4 times in 15 days the same message to the skype support in portuguese. I still didn't receive any message from portuguese support.

So I translate this message to english, and sent 3 times to the english support, and again I still didn't receive any message from english support.

It's unbelievable that we need to send questions through this blog and Skype foruns, because the skype support does not work!

Why Skype support only has this way to contact http://support.skype.com/?_a=tickets&_m=submit ?

Why Skype support does not have an e-mail?

Why Skype support does not have a phone number?

Why Skype support does not have a skype number?

Why Skype support does not have a chat online?

Why is so difficult to contact and receive an answer from Skype support?

As a global company, why Skype does not have representative offices in some countries around the world?

I will wait that you can change this!

I have just spent 2.5 hours going in circles on your web site attempting to renew my Skypein Subscription...all to no avail. This really needs to be fixed. If you do not provide a better product ...your customers will go to your competitors....and you will go out of business...which is what you deserve for such poor support.

dasfox commented Thursday, Aug 7

If you're taking people's money then you need to give support.

Without giving live support it makes one wonder about the business ethics going on here, especially since this is suppose to be a free/cheap service, but obviously not free and cheap enough for the company to use their own service to offer live support?

I don't know about the rest of you out there, but that is one hell of a lame business model going on here, 'Free & Cheap For Everyone, But Not Free Enough or Cheap Enough For Us To Give You Support'

Whoever is running this company really needs to reconsider their strategy, because if you can't see the stupidity here, then this company doesn't deserve to exist, because if it's good enough for the world to use, and tell us about it, then it's good enough for you to use, and SWALLOW your own words and use your own service and put some phone lines up for support...

From the Skype Forum on Security Issues

Overheard through the grapevine this morning, was an unconfirmed rumor regarding a CNN contributor's peaked interest in developing a segment that could air during the next Nielsen sweeps period which commences on October 29th that could be entitled something like:

From Skypefest To Pornfest ... Don't Go There Queen O!
Will Porn Spam create the next in a string of endorsements-gone-wrong?

Of course, it's neither my intent, nor interest to cause adversity for Skype. On the contrary, a suitable, robust product that satisfactorily meets users' anti-porn and spam requirements is in the best interest of all concerned. So, let's be quite clear ... there might be nothing at all to this unsubstantiated report. But speculate, if you will, whether Oprah (hypothetically assuming that's Queen O) — morally, ethically, and to protect her brand — would initiate some pre-emptive action. What effective measures might they be, and how might all that impact Skype and, of course, the anti-porn initiatives? What would be the probable fallout? Now, having speculated ... what might be the most productive, timely, and forward-thinking plan of action that would be most beneficial for Skype and, of course, the user community?

Skype has graciously provided this — remarkably, and notably simplex — Forum. So, user community ... what constructive thoughts, ideas, and suggestions might you like to offer to Skype and, of course, eBay? [whether the rumor is false ... or not]

Heck, your suggestion might even get read ... apparently not by Skype senior management (well, maybe they read, but either deign to respond, are significantly distracted, or wish a more cordial invitation), but maybe it would by ... no, she wouldn't ... would she? Well she is a Skype user.

(Note: With so many users, 480 million according to Skype's press release, there may be many who might ... inadvertently ... overlook this Forum. They may, in fact, wish to be informed, by alternate means, of this time-sensitive opportunity to assist Skype by lending their voice. It would be admirable for users to inform and support your fellow users in order that they may realize their wishes.)

(Post Note: When discussing matters of urgency and sensitivity: security, moral, ethical, social responsibility, and brand issues ... please be appropriately understanding, considerate, and respectful of senior management's current restructuring, valuation, IPO, and IP licensing concerns and requirements — and the impact — if requesting a corporate review of principles and priorities.)

alipatov commented Monday, Apr 21

Great news, but what about my SkypePro subscription that is very similar to the new US & Canada plan, but does not include calls to cellphones? Am I automatically upgraded to US & Canada plan?

martijn.brouns commented Monday, Apr 21

Same question here... just subscribed to a Skype Pro account with (that's what the site mentioned) no calling cost per minute for national calls. What's the catch? Call setup costs?

Great news about these bundles but please keep charging simple... Simplicity and transparency is what skype stay competitive!

arne_has_skype commented Tuesday, Apr 22

@ "What's the catch? Call setup costs?"

No catch, no hidden costs. No call setup costs. Just the monthly price and you're done.

To switch from Skype Pro to one of the new subscriptions, just go to http://www.skype.com/go/subscriptions click the 'Sign Up' button for your subscription of choice and you'll be converted from Pro to the new subscription. No need to cancel anything else manually, Skype does it for you.

ritchieandjo commented Wednesday, Apr 23

So what about a skypein number for Canada??? This would make it all work together nicely... then I could just use a skype phone instead of having to pay for a landline... then you'd have my business... any ideas of a launch date?

halinagold commented Wednesday, Apr 23

I very much appreciate this and have signed up right away.
Now I definitely don't need any landline.
There's one feature though that I miss and that would make this perfect:
The ability to call from a phone (landline or cell) and listen to the messages on my voicemail. How about extending the SkypeToGo menu with that option?

Thanks!

I have the new World Unlimited Subscription in the US. After my account used up the complimentary US $1.51 Skype Credit, it will no longer call the UK until I buy more Skype Credits. The description says the the listed countries, there is no per minute charges. Is anyone else having this problem, or did I miss something?

braydencorleone commented Thursday, May 29

Why would I want to get rid of my skype pro and go with the new plan? I am not sure I see a difference? Granted I did not research it all that long. I guess if I wanted to make unlimited world calls I would not have to pay per minute fees for doing so?

dare2eskype commented Monday, Jun 30

please point me to the phone number with person to resolve my subscription problem - have tried with lots of time and effort to find way to take care of this via forum, community, knowledge areas etc... I am giving up and in need of real people to talk to at this point.

any suggestions or directions any one - thanks

yorkshire_jonny commented Thursday, Mar 11

Why do we have to pay for online numbers with a world subscription? It's like line rental from an online VOIP provider.

I've been with Skype for over 3 years and when my credit card expired I paid for a refresh on my subscription with the new card in November 2009. Now in March 2010 I'm told my card has expired and have to buy a new subscription. What I'm not told is that my 4 included online numbers now cost $80 per year each on top of the $42 per quarter for the world subscription and call credit!

Can someone explain why Skype would do this to a loyal customer without any notice? Customer services has been really limited in what they can do and most of the community forum posts on the topic block any comments or right of reply.

Hiding the "avatar by default" in incoming authorisation requests isn't a good idea IMHO. When i see an image that i don't like, i know i have to be cautious or sometimes i even know i shouldn't take the call or accept the new contact.

By hiding the avatar of the intruder, you disable a quite fast way to have a first impression. A pity!

I think better should be to have this "feature" as an "option", not as a "by default".

And by the way ... the problem of the frozen image on my own image in the webcam is finally solved! Thanks.

Hi. I like the new skype beta, sounds are more clear and I don't have so much lag as in the previous version.

However I have found two slite bugs.
I use skype with pdt's skype phone. Sometimes skype crashes and when I try to restart it, it just hangs. I don't know the exact sercomstances under which this happens, but I have a 3 ghz processor and 1 gb of ram using windows xp, so it isn't a lack of resources. Skype once crashed on startup and the other times when I wasn't using it.

The other bug is that I heard echo from the other caller's side when they are getting an incoming call while talking to me. This only happened once.
Thanks. I like this beta even more than the older skypes. It just seems more responsive!
Willem.

Hi. This bug of skype is really getting bad for me.

Almost every time I restart windows, skype crashes and I am unable to restart skype. Even if I end all the processes related to skype I know of, it still doesn't want to run. I have about one in ten chance that skype would run.

I am using pdt's usb phone, but I disabled the software to see if it helps. No luck. I am running an up to date windows xp sp2 with 1 gb ram and a 3.0 ghz processor.

I'm now going to reinstall skype beta. If this doesn't work I'm going back to 3.5 until this gets fixed.
