    When I try to add a specific contact in my Skype-To-Go account I get an error that says the number is invalid. I tried entering it several ways to no avail. I know the number is valid because I can call it through my provider and through the Skype connection. Has anyone else had this problem. Also, trying to get to Skype Chat Support take me to an invalid page.

    Sudden Skype outage today, October 6. Skype is aware of the problems and are fixing as we speak.

  • lalume

    Can’t sign in, says account doesn’t exist or info is wrong. I tried password reset and got a code sent to the email, but it rejected the code, saying it was invalid and/or had expired. Tried several times. Created a second profile. Sometimes lets me sign in, sometimes doesn’t. Won’t let me complete the profile or actually use skype. Assuming nobody has a clue. Assuming nobody knows how to get support from skype itself.

  • J Baker

    Skype has been down the last two days at least 17-18 February 2016.

    • Jimmy H.

      Skype has been undergoing updates, and as a result, Skype logged itself out on my phone app, won’t let me back in, and the chat help agent suggested that I uninstall, then reinstall the app., then try again. In other words, they made a mess and I have to clean it up for them. Typical Skype! The agent also informed me that for “security reasons”, I will no longer be able to be logged in on my phone AND my desktop at the same time. WELL, ISN’T THAT SPECIAL? To me, it sounds more like getting off cheaper, to improve their profit margin. I wasn’t born yesterday.

    • Jimmy H.

      What this means, among other things, is that when we go out, we’ll have to log out on desktop, log in on the phone, then do the reverse when we get back home. And do this every time we leave the house!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLE???!!!

  • Ror

    1-14-2016, skype kicked me out and won’t let me log back in, despite a password reset and my information being right.

  • Shafqat

  • Wes

    For past 2+ weeks, we have been experiencing constant problems with Skype. Audio issues, video issues, Constant disconnection/dropped calls then automatically redialing. Very frustrating. Going to try Hangouts now….

  • CW

    Upon logging in today, January 8, 2016, I get a message saying, “We cannot start Skype because your system is unavailable. Please try restarting your computer and try again.”

  • Dave

    Hello, beginning early yesterday morning, my friend in Ukraine began having problems with Skype. Her comments were “Skype is not loading”. Then from mid-morning yesterday until now, I have not gotten any Skype messages from her. This is unusual as we speak a couple of times a day every day. We have exchanged email, but no Skype. Any idea what the problem may be? I am in the USA

    • Dave

      Sorry, we both have Windows based laptops. Mine is Vista and hers is Win 8.1. Genuine Win 8.1, I know, as it was shipped to me first to setup, then I shipped it to her. She has had it for 1 1/2 yrs and it has proven reliable.

      • Dave

        Update.
        We were able to “skype” some today before she went to bed. She got knocked off line a few times though. We finally lost contact around 3PM ET USA.

        • Dave

          Connection and connection quality for Skype is still very sporadic. Plus I didn’t mention this earlier. When we can message each other, my messages show up in helter-skelter order relative to her messages. It makes conversations while messaging kind of difficult to follow.

  • peter

    I have used skype for many years but I have not been able to access my account for some time windows 10 is part of the problem another is trying the buy a headset that is skype pc compatible to windows 10. Why windows 10 created this problem is beyond me.Maybe they make m ore money than do. I bought a new pc 6 months ago and from it stems all my problems with windows 8 to 10. To skype problems I never had before. I have bought 3 headsets since none of them work techs said they cannot fix it. consulted many times still have a skype account that does not work what is your problem/
