Skype

I stopped using Skype a few years ago and this is why. I was getting one friend request after another from these so called women that kept sending me links to join porn websites. Blocking and reporting was not working as they just kept on coming. Read the Skype forum and other people were having these same issues but staff weren't listening and only closed the threads. In the end I got so annoyed and fed up with it, I quit Skype.

Terrible IM program unreliable. Cannot change computers-you will not be able to login. If you travel you skype will be unavailable to you since they automatically identify you as a hacker and block your account. Spy on your chat and will delete your account for promoting other im programs. Corrupt, incompetent company with bad user interface and poor support.

Skype is valuable in business, It permits individuals to work from the home, it has numerous accommodating highlights including bunch video considering that saves a great deal of movement time and cash for the organizations, organizations can speak with associates, and it assists the organizations with conveying bunch gatherings from better places.
Easy to use.
Easy maintenance.
Easy to connect to another person.

One day my skype account didn't work. I undated everything nothing! After some time I finally tried to cancel my subscription but couldn't. Had to call my credit card company to shut down the card. Even to write this review it says if I don't include my subscription It may not get posted. Terrible.

Positive reviews must be from skype employees or those who use it on one device only and are technically ignorant.

Skype is basically spyware. It spies on your browser activity, recording and tracing it while u use skype instant messaging.

Run by microsuck they will delete your account for criticizing them in your private skype messages.

Slow to load and sign in. Frequent login problems. Cannot change devices or account will be blocked-another spyware feature.

Try line. It's better. In fact there are many IM programs that are better than skype.

Just like anything else Microsoft buys, when Microsoft buys it, it turns into absolute crap real quick. If you're gonna use this malware/spyware, I suspect using it on a mac so your chances of getting infected are much more slim.

Skype, you were doing just fine until you partnered up with Microsoft. Now my Skype account that I signed up with through facebook several years ago, no longer works and all my conversations with friends are gone because you require a Microsoft email to sign up. I had to sign up for one just to use Skype.
You're supposed to broaden your platform not narrow it down.

Aside from that, it gets 2 stars instead of 1 just because I been using it for years to keep in touch with family members and loved ones. Skype is a better alternative for this than Facebook because you're just talking to people. Not venting out all your life's problems in a public post. Skype works well with all that.

But now it's time to do away with you, Skype. This is goodbye.

I remember in the begining...
These Skype ONLY webcams...
Boi oh boi did i get ripped of by Skype Hype
I never liked it and or the idea of it.
Now though, i can accept the idea,
But again. It won't offer canadian numbers
And is an app only call thing. So wifi needed.
Textnow does the same for free. And offers Service providing for around 20~40$ so...
Just sad they also are not in canada yet id pick it up over my landline
But skype to me. Remains just an overhyped brand like facebook.
It was indeed the one that launched the whole crave so ill give it credit to that
