  • Was the Method of Collection for Skype Premium a S...

    I have been a user of Skype since 2011, and have used it for single user to single user video conference calls only. In other words, I have never engaged in a group conference call, not ever.
    Approximately 1.5 years ago, Skype repeatedly interfered with one of my single user to single user conference calls. A message was presented, and I'm paraphrasing... You must upgrade to Skype Premium to continue with this group call.
    Group call. What group call? I had a client on the video conference, was embarrassed by the interruption, and agreed to pay to continue to keep the video conference going. Upon entering payment information, another window appeared, interfering yet further with my video conference. This second window required me to register for free long distance to a foreign country. As a matter of fact, I could NOT continue with the video conference until I acquiesced to the demand of the prompt. Reluctantly, I selected the UK plan.
    Today, 22 May 2014, I was refunded the most recent charge on my credit card via Skype, and was told to contact customer support for an explanation. Yep, just as easy as getting President Obama on the phone.
    After initiating chat support lasting for one hour, I was infomed that single user to single user video conferencing was, is now, and always will be FREE. I inquired as to the nature of the $120 per year charge for the past 1.5 years, and was told by Kristina G. the charges were for the UK calling plan. When I told her that I knew no one in the UK, nor did I ever place or need to place a call in the UK, she became rather annoyed.
    I still don't know with certainty what happened, however here is my PERCEPTION [noun] the act or faculty of perceiving, or apprehending ​by means of the senses or of the mind; cognition; ​understanding.
    Due to a system glitch or clear intent, Skype allegedly halted the FREE service of users making frequent single user to single user video calls, insisting that such users pay for Skype Premium to permit them to continue using the FREE service. This was allegedly done under the guise of enabling multi-user conference calls when no such calls were being made. To cover their tracks, Skype allegedly offered a free foreign calling plan to any/all users having registered for Skpe Premium.
    Once caught in the act of alleged fraud, Skype refunded the most recent payment for Skype Premium, allegedly figuring that such a refund would thrill allegedly scammed users, and thereby prevent inquiries into previous service paid for.
    What I perceive is irrelevant. What you perceive after reading the transcript is all that is relevant. Did or did not Skpe engage in alleged fraudulent methods of collecting fees from people under the guise of alleged alternative service they would never use?
    Due to 20,000 character limit, I'm unable to post the juicy transcript supporting this perception.

    Norman,
    All my software is updated the very day each new patch or update is released. Having a Ph.D. and a J.D. whilst teaching and conducting research at a major university, I am aware of the importance of updating systems and software.
    Updates are most certainly not part of this problem.
    Please let me pose a hypothetical scenario to you.
    Let's presume you've purchased software you saw advertised on the internet wherein clear and unambiguous claims were made. Once you paid for and installed the software, you're greeted with a message indicating you must pay a 20-fold upgrade fee to use the features. You're facing a deadline. What do you do? The upgrade was not part of the advert for the product, yet you will not be permitted to use the product until you pay the fee.
    This is the problem, and everyone knows it. Skype is in error here. They never presented me with the choice of paying for a long distance plan for a fee. Rather they demanded that I pay to upgrade to Skype Premium if I wished to continue with my << free >> single-Skype-user to single-Skype-user video conference. Once I paid the "ransom," they offered me a complimentary long distance plan however offered me no choice in selecting it.
    Back where I earned my Ph.D., we call that extortion, and it's never legal.

  • Support for Skype Number Calling ID Australia

    Hi there
    So I was wondering if there will be any support for skype number calling id in the future in australia. It is quite frustrating not having any support for ksype calling id in australia. Was wondering when support will become availible. I'm sure many of you are also feeling my pain. You pay enough for the number so you should be able to have the number as the out going caller id.
    Thanks.

    When will we be able to use the Skype supplied number for CID (Caller ID) in Australia?
    I've been trying to get a straight answer for this for over 3 years.  The closest I had was that the system can only verify the owner of a number by sending an SMS to it.  Well, if Skype supplies the number in the first place they already have me validated!
    Given that a mobile number can be used in Australia already why can't the Skype number be put into place? 
    Can a moderator or support staff please comment here?
    Thank you.  Daymo.

  • Day pass for skype premium

    After I make the payment (visa) to buy a day pass for skype premium, how long do i have to wait to make the group call? Does it work right away?
    Even after buying the pass do I still need the free trial to make the group call? what about after the period of the free trial ends. will it work only with the dy pass purchase? I don't need a monthly subscription, just need the group call certain dates...
    thanks...

    I WANT TO KNOW THIS TOO!!! Someone please tell us.

  • Paying for Skype Premium using a Purchase Order/In...

    Hi,
    Our University would like to pay for a Skype Premium account using a Purchase Order system - i.e. we send out a Purchase Order to Skype, Skype sends an invoice, and we then send payment to Skype.
    Would this be possible, or is there an email address I can use to contact Skype directly about this?
    Thanks,
    Massimo

    I guess you are talking about due date for a billing document.
    There's an FM Determine_Due_date for that. before that you'll have to use FM FI_DOCUMENT_READ with I_AWTYP as VBRK and I_AWREF as Billing Document Number. You will get T_BSEG entry.
      CALL FUNCTION 'FI_DOCUMENT_READ'
       EXPORTING
         i_awtyp           = 'VBRK'
         i_awref           = po_vbeln
       TABLES
         t_bseg            = i_bseg
      SORT i_bseg BY vbeln.
    READ TABLE i_bseg WITH KEY vbeln = 'Billing Document Number'.
      IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
        MOVE-CORRESPONDING i_bseg TO wa_faede.
        CALL FUNCTION 'DETERMINE_DUE_DATE'
             EXPORTING
                  i_faede                    = wa_faede
             IMPORTING
                  e_faede                    = wa_faede
             EXCEPTIONS
                  account_type_not_supported = 1
                  OTHERS                     = 2.
    This wa_faede will have due date in one of its fields.

  • Chromecast Support for Skype on Mac

    Please sort this one out. It's a no-brainer. If Microsoft are avoiding supporting Chromecast just because of the ongoing feud with Google that's frankly rather dumb.
    Please allow us the experience we want so that those of us without smart tvs who already have high quality cameras and mics on our macbooks can enjoy the big screen experience. If we can't invest in new tvs and cameras, and we're not gamers, we're hardly going to be shelling out for xboxes etc.
    Thanks

    I'd buy the monitor cable because it's inexpensive and works with everything.    If  you buy a vendor specific device, don't be surprised when it's support is limited in many ways to it's own products and services.  You chose to limit yourself by buying that device.  If I buy a universal TV remote I don't call to complain to the TV manufacturer that their TV doesn't work with the 3rd party remote.  I call the universal remote company for assistance with their product.  In this instance you purchased an item that didn't even claim to be universal.  They do however invite companies (at their own expense) to add support for it.  That's like me making a similar device and demanding Skype add software to make it compatible with my device.  It may be nice but unless money or favors are exchanged in the real world, it is more than likely not going to happen.  If I were to make a similar device I would make sure it did not require other companies to make changes to their software to cater to it.
    People have found unofficial ways of getting it to work on Android.

  • Can't purchase Skype Premium, something went wrong...

    I'm already a old style 'Skype Premium' user, with the old 'Skype Premium' features and unlimited calls to the US and Canada.
    Other than that, I have a one month new 'Skype Premium' subscription that is still active.
    Now I have credits in the accoun and I want to buy a 12 months new 'Skype Premium' for umlimted calls to over 50 countries, but it always gives me something went wrong error?
    And where is the online chat support for 'Skype Premium' users? I just can't find it on the skype website at all.

    So to answer my questions, 
    you'll need to click support first, 
    then either search or not search a topic for help, the heavily advertised "Live Chat" support is buried 
    in the bottom and with a different confusing name called "Get More Help",
    Then you will be forced to search your problem again first, 
    click "Get More Help" again, 
    login,
    then you will be asked to select a topic
    Select issue
    Problems huh? Take a seat and tell us about it. 
    Start by choosing a topic below.

    then you have the live chat support.

  • Skype premium wants me to pay for calls yet I have...

    I signed up for Skype premium with a annual plan paid in full. Yet it wants me to pay for calls. Can you assist or contact me at 413.770.1812 to change subscription.

    What would you do for transportation if you drove your car into a tree and had to wait while it was fixed? You'd need to rent, borrow or buy another car, no? The same applies to your phone. This is not Apple's problem; if the service center does not have replacements in stock for immediate swap-out, then it's up to you to provide a backup device or do without.
    If you're in a country where Apple provides direct service for iPhones, you may be able to call Apple support and arrange for advance replacement, where they send you the replacement phone and then you send back the old one. Apple offers such service in several countries, though you have to pay an extra fee for the service. If not, then you'll just have to wait for the service center to get in the replacement, and will have to arrange an alternative to use during that time.
    Regars.

  • Skype Premium for 1 month

    I wanted to use group picture calling to our account as prompted during a call so signed up and paid up for a monthly billing. Then all it said was group calling 'not available'. I am being billed monthly but when I check my account credit I have $0.00!!!
    So what am I paying for?? 

    Hi,
    Your account currently has 1 month subscription for Skype Premium: https://secure.skype.com/account/purchase/history/orders
    Skype Premium itself provides group video calls, not calls to phones. Subscriptions provide calling minutes, not credit therefore your balance will not be changed, when purchasing a subscription.
    I guess you are interested in Skype Premium bundle that comes with Unlimited US&Canada subscription: http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/prices/premium/
    As the website says, in order to get Unlimited US&Canada you need to sign up at least for 3 months.
    Customer service will help you correct this if you contact them as guided here: https://support.skype.com/faq/FA10656

  • Skype Premium and customer support is a bad joke!

    Just so everyone is aware, Skype Premium is a complete waste of your money! The company indicates that unlimited calling to a country of your choice comes with the subscription - but that's not entirely accurate. I had a premium subscription and chose unlimited calling to the US. Turns out, I was being charged a mysterious 'connection fee' to dial certain numbers that was eating away at my Skype credit. I was in touch with support on the matter and was given the run-around for about an hour. It was determined through that support ticket that when I purchased Premium, I had a remaining subscription for Unlimited US & Canada calling which is why I had not seen this 'connection fee' charge in the past until it expired. As you might imagine, we went round and round regarding the supposed unlimited calling included with premium but at the end of the day, it wasn't entirely true. There was also some confusion about the 'connection fee' which was reported to me as a "once per call" charge when in all actuality it was being billed on a per usage basis. Long story short, if you want unlimited calling, my suggestion is to purchase that plan and avoid the overpriced premium subscription that gives you virtually nothing for the money. The only feature that was even remotely worth a hoot was the screen sharing capability - but even that can be done with other tools free of charge while you place a skype to skype call. 

    Here is a brief excerpt from my "I paid for Skype Premium... why are you charging me to make calls?" chat today:
    You: Okay, thanks, I guess I got it. The Skype Premium I paid for entitles me to free group video calls until February, then, becuase they're free for everyone, they'll be free.
    Keynethe C: You are correct!

    Well I understand typically the Analog out voltage range is + or - 10V. I need some help regarding choosing a power amplifier ( if I need one).
    Here's a brief discription of my application:
    I have a electroactive actuator. I am trying to develop a VI which generates voltage levels specified by the user through a array. What I am trying to do is to generate a voltage spike, which is faster than the speed of response of my actuator. However, I am not exactly sure whether 10V would be sufficient amplitude for my spike. So I might need say upto 15V output. Since the DAQ cards have a maximum range of 10V, I suppose I will need a amplifier. So how should I go about in selecting a correct power amplifier or signal conditioner?
    Here's what I have planned right now:
    Labview VI---->DAQ card----->Analog out----->Actuator
    I suppose for above stated reason, I should look for a amplifier/signal conditioner between the analog out and my actuator.
    Please help
