  • Deleting my Skype account... not possible!

    I want to delete my Skype account. The reasons are many, but the main reason is that it simply doesn't work; I can't install the program, Skype claims I don't have internet connection (but how can I be here then!?), and it's utterly impossible to get in contact with support (only numerous FAQ sites). I have no more patience! I don't want to waste more time here.
    But getting out of the claws of Skype/Microsoft/Google is not that easy...
    When I search for 'delete my account' it says that I can remove all my personal information in my profile, so that people can't contact me (as I can't download the Skype program there is no risk of that!). But no, I can't delete my name, my email, my country and press 'save'. It wants me to fill out the fields again! So, at the end, my name, email etc. will forever and ever be kept at Skype. Deleting or even changing my account is apparently not an option.
    I know my harsh words will not delete my account - when I am dead and gone the account will still remain.
    Only I hope this will prevent others from creating an account - they have to know that their membership of Skype will last forever...

    Hi, TorresAlmerco,
    Do you wish assistance, or as stated in this instruction, 'Can I delete my Skype account?' , to request your account be removed from the search directory?  Having read both of your posts, I am confused.  Please clarify.
    I have run into this same problem when making amendments to my profile details.  Please try changing your profile settings from within the Skype software rather than signing on from the website.
    Please advise; I am subscribed to both of your threads.
    Thank you,
    Elaine

  • How to delete old skype accounts

    When skype asked me to change my pasword, it said that I have now 7 skype accounts. I made them on older computers. I only need one of them, and want to delete all the old ones, so that if people are trying to find me, they only see my current account.How do I proceed? thanks 

    Dear Readers,
    Please review this information: 'Can I delete my Skype account?' and then contact customer service to file your request.
    Please note, you must contact Skype Customer Service directly to accomplish this.  Out of security and privacy concerns, no customer service team would be wise to act upon requests posted on a public website.
    If you do not know the usual identity-proving means such as e-mail address and password, Customer Service can request other details for you to confirm.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • Deletion of Skype accounts/ removal from directory...

    I'm not really interested in using Skype anymore and I somehow wound up with two screen names - [redacted] and [redacted] . Is there a way to delete my accounts manually?

    Hi, Yabbadabba, and welcome to the Community,
    First things, first: for your safety and protection, please never, ever include any personally identifiable information such as your real name, Skype account name, e-mail address, or a telephone number in a post on a public Community or forum such as this. Thanks!
    Skype does not provide us the facility to remove our accounts from the search directory ourselves.   Please review the information in this FAQ article, which will explain the process:
    Can I Delete My Skype Account?
    You will need to next contact Skype Customer Service to file your request as indicated in the instructions.

  • Deleting old skype accounts

    Hi I have a huge dilemma. My dad has had me create various skype accounts for him over time and now he wants to delete all but the one he remembers the password to. He wants me to figure out how to do this for him but when I go on the solutions forum it mentions logging into the account with your known password and deleting the account from the inside which defeats the whole purpose here. How do we just delete the account from the outside- like right click delete or someone we can email? He just needs one account. Please help!!! 

    Hi, ConfusedUser123, and welcome to the Community,
    Your dad could (or you could, if he provides his password to you) sign in to the Skype website and request all of the other accounts be removed.  Please see this thread (topic) for all of the how-to's:  http://community.skype.com/t5/Security-Privacy-Trust-and/How-Do-I-Delete-My-Skype-Account/td-p/31461...
    Skype does not provide a single-click "delete my account" facility as you describe; the accountholder must file the request with Skype Customer Service.
    Skype does not use a central or general e-mailbox; instead, we use the web-form as also explained here: 'Can I delete my Skype account?'

    Sorry, we’re having some problems at the moment. Please try again later. In the meantime, you can post to the Skype Community or read our FAQs.
    I understand it might take up to 2 weeks for the process to delete my skype account but please reply to me so I know it is in progress. 
    Can anyone please help me? Thank you!

    I'm not sure it would remove your IP off resolver sites. Maybe use a proxy to change the last used IP?

    Hello there, AniChirglyan.
    The following Knowledge Base article talks a little about the purchasing order of items through the iTunes Store.
    iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    iTunes may still ask you for information from your card on file if that information has lapsed or needs updating. The card information on file has to be correct, no matter what purchasing option you will be exercising for this purchase.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • I want to delete my skype accounts

    I have 3 skype accounts in total. The first one was made through facebook but when I tried to log in to that account it seemed that I had somehow accidentally made another skype account. As a result I couldn't log in to the first one. Since this kept on happening I made a seperate skype account and unlinked the other two skype accounts.
    It showed that the accounts have been closed but it still appears in the search box and that's causing a lot of confusion. Can you please tell me how to permanently delete those account.
    To make it worse I can't even log in to those accounts.
    Any way to close down these accounts? 

    Hi, Kavyadileep, and welcome to the Community,
    You will need to contact Skype Customer Service to request the acccounts be removed from the search directory.  Please note, you will be asked to verify that you are indeed the rightful "owner" of the accounts in question.
    Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Here are a few extra notes to guide you along the way ...
    You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the web-form and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail unless you are transferred to start an instant message chat session with a Customer Service agent.

  • Please delete two Skype Accounts.

    Would it be possible to delete two accounts for me? I don't use them anymore and my friends constantly contact them thinking I still use those accounts. These accounts are "[Removed by moderator]" and "[Removed by moderator]" thank you.
