Need to remove skype account ASAP

I had not idea that once you create a skype account you can not delete it.
I am getting stalked because my skype account is firstname.lastname
I changed the username but stalkers are still finding me by searching for my first and last name.
How do I stop this and do I need to have the police get involved in deleting my account.
please help me to hide me on skype.
thank you

unfortunately, it's not possible to change your Skype username. In your case, I think you can "block" that particular user or report them to Skype for possible abuse.

How to find out Skype account name

Preface: Sorry, I think this is really simple thing but I tend to be verbose when I'm trying to describe the issue. How would I find out what is my Skype account name? Or more precisely the login name? (I mean of course my own name is on the accout, but I want the "account" name, not the name on the accout, heh) I have an old hotmail account, which has become live/messanger/microsoft account and now after Messanger was removed, Skype account as well. I can login into any of these by logging from the Live/Microsoft account, but what is my Skype account if I want to login using that? On Skype program and website, both list my hotmail address as well as "live:hotmailaddess" part before @ character. But I can't login to Skype using the address, "live:address" or just "address". I can't find anything else on the pages. I tried logging out from the website and then using the recovery option "I want to find out my Skype account" (the website is in Finnish so my translation might not be accurate to what it actually is in English). I typed in the hotmail adress many times since the it asked it for many times a row and continued the steps, finally I typed in the address and capcha , then again it asked the address. I think I made a mistake there, because I think it actually wanted on the last time the alternative address. The website was not too clear about it specially since it wants the address so many times. It displays only a small portion of it and since my alternative address is practically identical to the main address, just an underscore is changed to hyphen, well...So finally it displayed "IF the account address is xxxx for whatever a code has been sent to it". Yeah well since I guess typed in the wrong address, I've received nothing on either. This whole ordeal started today few hours ago when I tried to login to the **bleep** thing. I updated the Skype program, since an upgrade have been around for some time now, and since it always resets the autologin information, I had to manually type them in, and it kept asking for alternative verification address or phone number. There was no way to bypass that. Just to make it clear, it wanted me to give such info, not use the alternative thing since so far I've never given any alternative ways to login or reset account.
Somehow at first I was able to finally get in without giving any alternative info, I kept trying to login over and over, occasionally I tried to login using the "Skype account", but since I don't know the account I could only login using the Live/Microsoft account. Then I logged off from the program, and after that I tried to login back, it wanted to manually login again, and it kept asking from the alt details and I couldn't anyhow bypass that. I also tried logging into Hotmail/Outlook.com from the website as well as Skype(from website), both ways wanted the info but to both I finally somehow managed to get in. I mean the websites, logging inside the program failed all the time. Anyway finally I remembered I had made the second account so I figured I give it as alt address. I got that thing in OK, the second address just has hotmail.com, so I could easily login there by another browser and that didn't want any extra verifications. But before this last attempt, I had used the same "I want to know my Skype ID" feature from the program. To clarify, before linking the second address to my main address. But since I was having so much trouble with getting into Skype(and as well as it's Messanger part) I think I didn't check them out. Plus I had trouble getting into the mail as well, although I finally got in. Soooo...the two mails received in the primary address, "Your Skype Name token" messages which have a link and verification number, they won't work anymore. I try either, and neither works. My guess is they got invalidated by the third request or by either finally adding the alternative address. AND, since the third time I mistook it asking the same **bleep** address for the third or fourth time in the last request and gave the main address not the alt address it probably didn't send the code anywhere. And now I tried again the thing but it refuses to go any further than the first step, because it says I've used it too often in the last 24 hours. So, surely the account name should read someplace?I repeat, I can perfectly login into Skype in web and the program, I know the password and hotmail addresses and all that, but the two types of accounts it lists after logging in, neither work for login. Or does it mean I don't actually have a Skype account, just the Live/Microsoft account which I can only use to login to Skype using that other option? I'm starting to think this is the case.

I am definetly starting to think I don't actually have a skype name. Now I tried again since the 24 hour restriction went off. First from Skype webpage ->sign in -> forgotten your skype name? ->there I enter my hotmail address ->send mail ->then it moves off from Skype and into account.live.com, where it's no longer asking anything Skype related: Why are you having trouble signing in?I forgot my passwordI know my password, but can't sign inI think someone else is using my Microsoft account
So I obviously choose the second option last time since it's the closest available option for my problem, but then it gives me options: Get back into your accountWe can help you reset your password and security info. First, enter your Microsoft account and the characters shown. So again it asked for my address and captcha, and after that I could choose to "verify my identity" by choosing the alt email, but since that is slight garbled and cannot be differented from the primary address, and I was already so pissed off from typing the same address over and over, so at that point I mistakenly wrote the main address again where it wanted to verify it by asking the whole alternative address and thus it never sent the account reset email for the Microsoft/Live account. But since I originally had no problems with that Microsoft account, all I wanted was the "Skype Name", and since the only way to try to find it jumps into the restore Microsoft account thing, I'm assuming I don't have one which I could use to login to Skype, so all I can use is the Microsoft/Live account.

My wife and I share our Mac OS 10.6.8 since downloading Skype on her account she can not stay connected to any web site she pulls up. I removed Skype from here account but it stll happens. What can I do to clear this up?

My wife and I share the same Mac OS 10.6.8 and since downloading Skype on her accout she came not asty connected to any web site for more than a few seconds. I have remove Skype from her account but not mine. I don't have the problem on my accout and I still have Skype loaded. How can I fix this problem?

O.k. Thanks for the clarification. I poked around in my TimeCapsule router's settings (TimeCapsule is an Apple Airport Extreme router with attached hard drive for wireless backup/storage). Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I can disable multicasting with the TimeCapsule. I can change the multicasting 'rate'. Settings are Low, Medium, High. It's currently set to Low.
I did a few web searches, and found an Apple.com article: <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3789?viewlocale=en_US> which explained how to disable Bonjour Service Advertisements. I believe this is the same thing as 'Multicasting'. The process is a modification of "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist", and a restart of the Mac is required afterwards.
I'm a bit concerned that disabling multicasting will interfere with my AppleTVs and iTunes music sharing, but I may try it next time I'm up for a computer workout. This task will require editing of system preference files, could require multiple restarts, might interfere with my AppleTVs, could interfere with my iTunes file sharing, doesn't have a documented relationship to my problem.
This is way to difficult for something that should just work. Did you say you had read something about a relationship between this bonjour multicasting and smb connectivity? If it was online could you post the link?
I'm currently able to connect to the drive using NFS, but I have to manually configure that connection each time I reboot (can't get the 'Disk Utility' configured to do it automatically). While it's working with NFS, it's not my preferred connect method (for various reasons).

How do I remove my account from Skype?

I have already contacted skype by e-mail. It has been over 7 days now, since my e-mail was assigned to somebody at skype. Nobody has responded yet. I have also tried chat support, but it just keeps me waiting for long periods of time. Why isn't there a form to fill out instead of waiting to chat with support? Also, i notice you want users to pay, just to chat with support. I think that's wrong.
The reason I want my account removed is because a spammer called my familys landline pretending to work for your company wanting credit card information. How they got ahold of the number is in question right now, because i have no number listed on my account. I feel as though my privacy has been invaded and wish for my account to removed from your directory immediately.

... and also, please review the information provided in this thread:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Security-Privacy-Trust-and/How-Do-I-Delete-My-Skype-Account/td-p/31461...
Skype accounts can indeed be taken out of service permanently.

Remove Skype's Technical Account

Hello!
When I first logged in to Skype using my Microsoft account, it gave me option to merge my existing Skype account or create a new one. I created a new Skype account, but soon I realized I was not given an option to choose my Skype name. Instead, it created a so-called Skype Technical account with the Skype name as "live:<my email address without domain>". Such name was very awkward to give to people, hence I decided to signup for a "normal" Skype account. I created a new Skype name with the normal signup procedure, and unlinked my Microsoft Account from the technical account which was created. Then again logged in using Microsoft account and this time, chose to merge my existing Skype name (which I signed up for manually). This worked, I was able to use my Microsoft account on Skype, and also got a proper Skype name.
But now, if someone searches me on Skype using my email address, it shows them both the Skype accounts, the one that I manually created (which is the one I use), and the old Skype Technical account appearing as ""live:<my email address without domain>". I want this technical account to be deleted permanently, or atleast don't appear when people search me using my email address. There is no way I can delete this technical account myself, as after unlinking my Microsoft account from it, there is no way to access that account.
Please solve this issue asap.
Thank you!

Removing my Credit Card from skype accounts I do n...

Hi There
It appears my sales people utilised my credit card for setting up multiple skype accounts. Unfortauntely now I am getting billed for 8-9 skype accounts each month. The other skype accounts are now surplus to requirements.
Currently I only require 1 skype account. Is it possible to scan all accounts that are using my credit card and only authorise my credit card for my personal account and remove from other accounts. It's adding up to quite a bit of money each month. I don;t have usernames and passwords to other skype accounts using my credit card.

Hi, Andrew, and welcome to the Community,
You will need to contact Skype Customer Service for assistance with this. If you report the purchases as unauthorized, all of the accounts - including yours - will most likely be suspended or "blocked" when the charge-backs are processed as an anti-fraud measure. You might also consider closing that particular credit card account number and replace it.

Elaine

Removing Multiple Skype Accounts against one ID ?

Hi , I need to get the procedure to remove multiple accounts generated against one email ID?

After 2 hours worth of searching with no answer, I decided to run a test and it worked. This is what I did to have multiple Game Center IDs on iOS7. (People responding may have over looked this detail because they assumed it was obvious, but it wasn't)
Answer: you MUST have multiple Apple ID accounts, however, you use the main one to log in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE.
1. I deleted the Alternate Email Address associated with my account
2. I created an entire new Apple ID with this email address
3. I login in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE with my original Apple ID (credit card on file)
4. I login to Game Center, iCloud, etc... with my kid's NEW Apple ID
So purchasing still goes under our shared account and game center, iCloud, etc... go under my kid's Apple ID.
^ ^ ^ ^ This is the simple straight forward answer I was looking for ^ ^ ^ ^
