Why does Skype suggest contacts to block?

Please help me understand.. PLEASE.. When a user goes to Tools>Options, selects Privacy>Blocked Contacts, there is a list of contacts blocked. Below that is an option to block a contact/s from a list given from skype. I wanted to know why those in particular contacts appear there. Why does skype suggest those particular contacts?/ What was done to make those in particular contacts be on that list?

Hi, misscrowley1, and welcome to the Community,
I never figured out what the logic is behind whose names appear on that list and whose do not. I once thought it may have been the most recently contacted names, however that is not always the case. I think it's random!
Kind regards,
Elaine

Skype account blocked and they won't unblock it.

I had this really old skype account, I believe I created it when they released skype, but I had like 7 contacts or less, and used it like once a month, sometimes once a year, I don't know. But I used msn messenger a lot, and my account was really old aswell, and when they merged it with skype, I had to merge my accounts, so that's what I did. but at that time, it was so complicated, you had like two contact lists, on the same software you could send messages as a messenger account, or a skype account, to messenger or skype contacts, and it was really not user friendly, it was impossible to use, even tried to clean my list, deleting duplicated entries, people i never talked to, but still didn't do it, so once again, I abandoned skype and went to facebook. so last year I went away and wanted to do a video call to my girlfriend, so we installed skype. I didn't remember what account name I should use, or wich password was correct, and for some reason my account got blocked. i'm not even sure that i entered a wrong password, but it got blocked anyway. when i tried to retrieve it, said i had to contact support and cmon, to reset your password you have to contact support???? no thanks, decided not to use skype again, and made a video call with facebook. but as of this week, I wanted to make a video call from my android phone, and decided to give skype another go, people told me that it was a good video app, so why not. and there was i trying to retrieve my password, when i ran through this form to fill with a lot of irrelevant information: if i "used credit card to pay for a skype service or if i used paypal." how the hell should i remember a thing i did once in my life and many years ago? i don't know if i used credit card or paypal, how should i know wich credit card i used? ok, next field: "what email address you provided when you registered." ok, when i registered my first skype account, or my messenger email wich i merged later? because i don't know what email i was using back when they launched skype, ffs. so i put my messenger email and procceeded. next question, when did i create my skype account (year AND month). again, my old account, or the one i merged later? and how the hell should i freaking now the year or even the month i created it??? was like centuries ago, cmon!!?! next question, "provide five names that are in your contact list." heck, I had hundreds of people on my messenger, wich i often deleted and replaced, and barely 5 or 7 contacts on skype, wich i never used, and when they merged, i reorganized my list, so i had no idea wich list they were talking about, or who was on it. next question, "what is the total cost of a recent order that you have made." you're kidding, right? next, on what date did you place the recent order (dd/mm/yy)? ... next, "please provide two phone numbers that you have recently called or contacted using skype." god, i tried to order a pizza once, and i called my mother another time, but how am i supposed to remember wich pizza place, and if i called mother at home, work, cellphone 1, 2, or what? jesus. I answered the other questions properly, but apparently they 'don't have enough information to retrieve my account" thanks microsoft. I really wanted to use that account, since it's linked with my microsoft email, wich is also my xbox live account, and some other stuff, and I don't want to have 2 ms addresses, but ok, i really needed to make a video call, so i tried to create another account. I was on my pc trying to solve this problem, so I opened skype website and clicked create account. luckily (or is it?) there was an option to create account with facebook, so that's what I did. and when I went to my phone to login, bam, no option to log in with facebook, and when you create an account that way, you just don't have a name or password to log in on your mobile. good job ms! thanks for ruining my day, and good luck beating apple, google or facebook when you keep treating your costumers like **bleep**.

I've recently noticed that my skype account has been blocked. I don't know what the issue is. I have the password, but it won't let me make calls. I have cash on the account too. But now it is requesting me to fill in forms. What year did I set up my account? 10 years ago or so, maybe 11, maybe 9, 8, 7, not sure. What card did I use to last put money on it.... not sure, it was about a year ago, debit or credit? Can't remember. But out of the 10 questions, I seem to have got one wrong, but it won't tell me which one. I have asked customer service for help, but the genius just asked me to refill in the form. I did again, same issue, something wrong (waiting for 24 hours for failure notification on both occasions) I've asked him to point out what is wrong, but genius refuses to. Honestly, a pathetic customer service experience. 0/100 score. Just some autogenerated BS from India. I've had to now set up an entirely new Skype account. So warning, if your account is blocked, don't bother with customer service. They are useless. Just set up a new account and forget about what ever cash is on your account. Thanks Skype!!

Skype blocks accounts and numbers without explanat...

Hei Everybody,
Just let you know about skype unbelievable behaviour with blocking
Accounts and numbers.
We have skype + skype kredit for many years and call mostly one family landline number all the time - from our main account.
One beautifull afternoon I was sitting in my room talking ti this number as I have done for years. Without knowing this fact, my wife from another room using same account i. e same skype kredit has tried to call her family.
Without any message / notice from skype that another person is using the account/kredit she successfully connect an begins talking - a landline number as well - so for 5 min we talk to different numbers simultaneously from same account / kredit without any alarm notice from skype and without knowing about each other Stupid , isn' t it ? But this is only a stupid mistake evrybody can do - skype must have a solution for this - we are living in 21 century.
But guess what happening - after 5 min simulaneoys talk - we have been thrown out from tjis account and the account + our main landline number is blocked by skype.
After several hours writing mails and talking to a several skype consultants providing proof of purchasing etc - our account was unblocked.
But guess what - the land line number we call 80 % of our credit last years is still blocked because skype thinks that this number is used for fraudelent attempts - any attempts to explain that everything is stupud mistake was receiving automatic draft mails that skype is investigating the number.
WHAT WAS OUR SURPRISE TODAY WHEN WE RECEIVED MAIL FROM SKYPE THAT THIS NUMBER IS BLOCKED FOREVER AND IF WE WANT TO CALL THIS NUMBER WE NEED TO FIND ANOTHER SOLUTION !!!!!!!!!!
Can you lmagine all this ??????
Тhe most funny / absurd / tragic thing is that rest of our family living in different countries also can not use this landline number (80 % of their calls are also to this number) - so all we need to change skype with some other solution - AMAZING AND UNBELIEVEBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try to reset all Skype settings.
Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
If you are on the latest Skype 6.5/6.6/6.7/6.9/6.10/6.11/6.13/6.14 version, then do also this:
Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
Restart Skype.

My call from Skype to landline phones are being blocked

I live overseas and the easiest way to make calls to the US is by using Skype. Recently, however, my Skype calls are being blocked as unsolicited calls by landlines. Of course, the instructions given by the recorded message, do not work (*82 followed by the number). How can I start getting my calls to go through to those who block unsolicited calls? -M

I am facing the same problem...When dialing from Windows PC, there is not even a ringing tone. But from Android phones, it gives rining tone only for me and the receiving side actually doesn't receive call itself. I am living in Dubai..Please suggest a soultion for us.

Hey guys, just got swindled by Skype, don't know w...

So a few days ago I discovered that Skype on my Windows Phone didn't have me logged in anymore. I tried logging in several times but to no avail, I was told that my account info was incorrect. I tried resetting my password, but both times I tried it told me to contact customer service. I sent an online form request detailing the issue and recieved this response back from support:

Apparently "unsolicited communications" were being sent from my Skype account. However, I am the only one with access to this account, and this account has only recently (within the last two weeks) been active again after being dormant for more than a year.
I sent another email to support and recieved an even more canned response:
Hello Stephen,
Thank you for contacting Skype Customer Support!
We're sorry to know that you can no longer access your Skype account. Upon checking, unfortunately it is not possible to restore your Skype account. As what we have explained in the previous email. We have applied restrictions to protect Skype users.

Needless to say I am quite fed up. I tried contacting live support via a new account and I had one of the most unhelpful conversations ever:
You are now chatting with 'Alberto F'.
Stephen: hello
Alberto F: Hello! Welcome to Skype Live Support! My name is Albert. How may I help you?
Stephen: So my other (primary) Skype account has been blocked for "unsolicited communications" but I have not sent any such thing from that account. I keep trying to get an explanation of what happened to my account but I am not getting much help through filling out the customer service form online.
Stephen: I would like to know what happened to my Skype account ([Redacted for privacy]) and why it can't be activated and what I can do to resume my Skype services (they are very important for my day to day activities)
Alberto F: I understand that your account has been blocked for unsolicited communication and want to get it unblocked. I'd be happy to assist you with it.
Alberto F: To make sure I am pulling up the right account, may I have your Skype name and first name please?
Stephen: Thank you, I appreciate any help you can provide. I haven't been able to make any calls for three days now.
Stephen: The Skype name is [Redacted for privacy] and my name is [Redacted for privacy]
Alberto F: Thank you Stephen.
Stephen: Yep
Alberto F: Thank you for waiting Stephen.
Stephen: No problem
Alberto F: We apologize, but for the security and privacy of your account, your account is restricted at the moment
Stephen: That is a canned response. Why can't anyone tell me why my account is blocked? I just activated it two weeks ago and I AM THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS USED IT.
Stephen: I keep getting the runaround from you guys. I am told that my account is blocked but nothing else. Not how to reactivate my account. Why it is blocked. What I can do. If I can start a new account.
Alberto F: As described in the Skype Privacy Statement (http://www.skype.com/en/legal/privacy), we are only able to provide account information or make changes in the account, in cases where we are able to verify the account user’s identity. Unfortunately, due to lack of information required, we will not be able to help you to access the account
Stephen: I am getting very very few solutions from you guys at all. I have payed you my money and I am not able to get barely any response from customer serivece.
Alberto F: Online verification form
Stephen: That doesn't make any sense: "Unfortunately, due to lack of information required, we will not be able to help you to access the account" you have not asked me for any information but my name and login. Ask me anything: what do you need to know?
Alberto F: Once you submit the form, the information will be forwarded to a special department for review. You will receive a follow up email within 24 hours.
Stephen: I have submitted that form three times now, I am not doing it again. This is crap. Are you a human or a machine? You keep typing out canned responses.
Stephen: Why can't I reactivate my account? <--- see direct question, it's easy to answer. Like this question: Q: what color is the sky A: Blue. See, easy.
Stephen: This is the response I am getting from you guys: What color is the sky? Answer from skype: "Please refer to our "sky colors" link to look at possible colors that the sky may or may not be"
Alberto F: I apologize Stephen, As much as I want to process your request now, we really need to go through the user verification form. This is to protect the privacy and security of your account. I assure you that once we receive the results of the user verification form, you will receive a follow up email as soon as possible.
Stephen: Yes, I received a "follow up email" three times now. And three times I have been told "we are sorry but we cannot reactivate your account".
Stephen: Why would I contact you guys again only to be told off again?
Stephen: Can you just take the remainder of my service and apply it to this account? I paid for a month of service, I still have 10 days that I haven't utilized (14 if you count the days I haven't been able to use the service).
Alberto F: That is because the answers you have provided regarding the account might not be accurate
Stephen: Bull
Stephen: I am the only one that knows the answers to the questions you guys asked and I answered all of them as best as I could. I don't know every single phone number and contact in my list by heart but I provided all the information that I could possibly provide.
Stephen: Three times now.
Alberto F: I'm sorry, since your account is restricted, we cannot access it at the moment.
Stephen: Okay, why was my account restricted in the first place? Huh, can you tell me that? I didn't do anything. So what is it that my account supposedly did? Did I send a threatening email to the president? Did I declare war on Russia? Did I offend Bill Gates? What? I have been given nothing but shoirt, vague responses from you guys.
Stephen: I have literally used the **bleep** thing for TWO WEEKS. I haven't used my Skype account in a year and all of a sudden you guys decide to screw me over?
Alberto F: The skype name you have provided is [Redacted for privacy] and it is currently restricted
Stephen: Are you really not a machine?
Stephen: You didn't answer any of my **bleep** questions.
Stephen: Yes you and I both know [Redacted for privacy] is restricted and I know what my account name is :/
Stephen: So why say it like that?
Stephen: Are you not allowed to answer questions or be helpful being a Skype rep?
Stephen: I asked why you blocked my account in the first place. Acceptable responses could be: "because we hate you", "because, haha, we have your money sucker", "because your account appears to have been hacked and we have locked it to protect you", "because we thought it would be funny". See these are all ANSWERS.
Alberto F: I'm sorry, we are only concerned about the privacy and security of your account
Stephen: What is your name?
Alberto F: I'm Albert.
Stephen: CONGRATULATIONS ALBERT! YOU JUST ANSWERED A QUESTION! Now please answer a question that isn't your **bleep** name. Why is my account blocked? Why reason? Details, that is what I want to know. It is only fair to me. I don't understand why this is soooo difficult for you guys.
Alberto F: Your account was restricted as it violated our Terms of Use.
Stephen: How did it violate the ToU?
Alberto F: Skype Terms of Use
Stephen: "UNSOLICITED COMMUNICATIONS"? AS PER PART 6 SECTION 3?
Alberto F: Kindly read through it. I cannot see on my end the exact reason why it was blocked
Stephen: See if this was a court case, the judge would ask the attorney: what did the defendant do" and the attorney would say "your honor he was speeding"
Stephen: Ohhhhhh, so you guys can block my account but not give me a reason? Just point to a vague subsection in a ToU?
Stephen: That is bullcrap.
Alberto F: What I would advise you is to fill up the Online form and answer all of the questions accurately inorder for your account to be verified.
Stephen: I am completely angry now. This is unfair. I have done nothing wrong. Not only has Skype customer support been woefully incompetent at telling me why my account was blocked, but I am not even given any options AS A PAYING CUSTOMER as to how I can resume my service, a very important service that I use and PAY YOU MONEY FOR
Stephen: I paid you guys money for a service that you decided to randomly terminate, and now you are giving me the giant runaround. I have contacted Skype via the Online form three times now and all three times I have received an unhelpful canned response telling me to kindly screw off. I am tired of this. I can't believe how much I am being screwed right now.
Alberto F: We can only answer your question and assist you if your account is authenticated.
Stephen: I have my social security number, I can send you a picture of my birth certificate, what else do you need? I sent you guys the form three times.
Stephen: "Thank you for your response Unfortunately, we cannot re-activate your account. We take the safety of Skype customers very seriously and need to apply certain restrictions to protect our customers' details.

Kindly let us know if you have any questions and we are happy to help you. Best regards, Jodelberth Q. Skype Customer Service"
Stephen: SEE!
Stephen: You guys are completely ---.
Alberto F: I understand. Kindly fill out the online verification form again and submit it to verify your account
Stephen: And how many times do I need to do this? Three or four more times? Is that the magic number for you quacks?
Alberto F: We need you to do it in order for your account to be authenticated
Stephen: I understand, but I have already filled it out. Why do you think that if I fill it out again that anything different will occur?
Stephen: I have recieved three responses from you guys telling me that my account is dead
Alberto F: It will be verified if you have answered all of the questions related to the account accurately
Stephen: And I have.
Stephen: At least to my ability.
Stephen: I would venture to say at least 90% of the questions are correct.
Alberto F: That is good to hear.
Stephen: Sure, I suppose. It would be good if it was acceptable for you guys. Apparently it still hasn't been good enough the last three times I have done it.
Alberto F: I would suggest that you submit the form now and wait for the response in 24 hours
Stephen: Whatever. I have to go. You are absolutely no help. Skypoe really needs to invest in some better customer service, seriously :/
So now I am unsure as to what to do. I really need Skype as I use it on my Windows Phone for calling out. I have tried filliong out another support request but I am sure I will recieved another canned response about how the account cannot be reactivated. Does anyone have any bright ideas?

Hi, Stephen, and welcome to the Community,

Stop Skype Automatic Update

I know there have already been threads for this, but I've looked, tried many solutions, and today skype once again downgraded itself to a newer version without my consent. Here are the steps I've taken to stop automatic updates:
- Disable automatic updates within skype options
- Disable Skype Updater services in services.msc
- Block 'download.skype.com' in my hosts file
- Delete any skype files in %temp%
After skype downgraded itself once again this morning (it does this every day now), the settings in skype options and services.msc had been reset, and there were more files in %temp% again. download.skype.com is still blocked in my hosts file, so I have no idea how it managed to downgrade itself this time. Did they change the download location since the old threads I've been reading were written?

Skype is now also updated by Windows Updates.

Urgent alert from skype???

I was interrupted while I was watching a video by an alarm that said - in a voice - that i needed to reactivate my computer protection and that i was to go to [invalid URL] and it came from a unknown user aklofenz21. That is was an urgent system alert. I have never heard of this. Is it a hoax? a malware? I felt Id better ask before I visited some strange sight.
I will be grateful for your input.

Ps this is a brand new pc...have had it for 3 days...and all in one - hp

Hi, mumademex, and welcome to the Community,
Unfortunately, this is just one of many known scams affecting Skype users. Please Block and Report as Abuse; please do not be alarmed or surprised if you have to do this several times as the scammers perpetually change their tactics. I recommend adjusting your privacy settings to allow incoming audio calls, video calls, and instant messages from people on your contact list only. For the ladies, I now recommend removing any reference to gender from your profile.
Remember to install an effective anti-virus/malware/spyware program on your new computer, and run it regularly using updated virus signature files. Keep up with patches and updates as they are available.
Best regards,
Elaine

Unknown caller and blocked caller

Keep recieving a skype call from *** MESSAGE RECEIVED! VIEW AT WWW.VIEWSN.COM *** why even after I have blocked the person?

These scammers appear under the same Display Name but with many different Skype names. You block one, but they continue under a different Skype name.

Skype How-To video ads

Help in banner ads. Seriously? I have been using skype since way before Microsoft owned it. Y'know, back when it was good and MS wasn't determined to kill it stone dead by trying to make it "trendy" and in the process accidentally making it unusable. (Hell I remember that ancient bug where you could steal being the host from someone. 06-07, good times.) I would go on a rant about how ugly and wasteful (of space) the new 7.0 UI is, but that's pointless as MS never listens to anyone with any amount of negative feedback. I kind of wish they would market the blinkers they're all wearing, would probably make the world a wonderful place to live. Anyway! Went off on kind of a tangent there. Like I said, I've been using skype longer than I can even remember. So now, the fact that the space at the top of my IM windows is being taken up with banner ads to beginner tutorial videos is their next master-stoke of crotch kickery. I have no need for these tips, and I run in split-window mode with each IM window at minimum size, so that space is at a premium... And right now it's being taken up by a banner ad that isn't even making anyone any **bleep** money. I don't need this help! It feels like because I block their actual ads their punishing me with patronization. xD TL;DRDoes anyone have any idea how to turn the how-to tip ads off? (Ironic, I know.) I don't really hate that they exist (unlike normal ads,) because I'm sure they are helping some people... Just not me. I don't need them, they're making my Skype experience worse. (Much like every update since Microsoft... Other than group video, that one was good. Didn't even mind paying for it.) The weird thing is, they weren't there yesterday and no updates have taken place... They'll probably disappear of their own accord soon enough, but I thought I may as well ask you fine people anyway. <3~ P.S. Yes I have looked through options, yes ads are disabled. I even have Skype's ad server blocked in my hosts file. If there's a simple option somewhere that I've just missed, feel free to make me look like a fool. But posting here was my last resort, so I'm hoping I'm not just that stupid.

This is a feature I probably shouldn't advertise here, but you may want to take a look at this plugin: https://github.com/dlehn/Skype-Utility-Project It should be able to solve your problem. Other than buying Skype credit, I think there is no "built in" option to free the space taken up by the banner ads permanently.

Skype bot malware?

Hi,
I'm not sure if there are other posts on the Skype Community that help with my problem, so I am posting a new topic. I have had issues with malware for a few months now. First it was my LAN settings resetting to manual connection to a local proxy instead of automatically connecting every time I restarted. Recently, the internet has seemed slower than it should be. I suspect that the most likely source of the malware causing this issue is from the website that I visited from a bot on Skype.
I have kept getting requests from different Skype bots, and have blocked and reported it each time.
Since I didn't actually download anything (IIRC) when I visited the website, I don't know how I might fix the problem. I have already done many things, such as installing and running malwarebytes, and doing a quick and comprehensive scan.
Kind regards,
James

I hope you dont mind randomly chatting for a minute... I found your name on the skype search (angel) lol... what kind of girls do you like?

Blocked account, no notification and customer service.

My Skype account suddenly got blocked for no apparent reason, without any notification whatsoever. I have run all the options mentioned here on the community such as checking spam folders, opening ports to allow Skype emails to be received, changing password etc... I have eve made an folllow up with through the customer service system almost two weeks ago and still have not yet received an reply. The Live chat and refund form also does not work for me. I am truely disasppointed as I have been a loyal Skype customer for many years now and this how Skype returns the favor? If anyone of the support team is able to read this, please reach out to me as I have tried everything and this is my last resort.

By the way. I am posting this from my husband's account, because I CAN'T ACCESS MY OWN!!!!!

Skype Scam????

Hi, My skype account has been blocked for no reason. I contact skype support who send me an email sending me to this 'Customer Support Chat';
[Edited: Please don't post links if you have a suspicion that you received a scam link]
The 'Online customer support' person tells me I need to give them the first 6 and last 4 digits of my credit card, the name on the card and issuiing country. The chat is in subpar English, unprofessional and pushy for me to give them my credit card details. I ask them for proof they are really skype by telling me something - anything about my skype account but they cannot do so. Any ideas of what type of scam this is?
Thanks

Can I Use Skype Free Minutes From a Mobile Phone

Can you use Skype free minutes (provided with Office365) to call FROM a mobile phone? When I check the free minutes online, I see that they are active on my Skype account, but my Android mobile app does not show any Skype credit?

If your iPad Mini is a cellular model, you can use Skype (and buy a block of minutes). If only wireless, you can also use Skype on a wireless connection. It saved the day when I forgot my iPhone and needed to make a call. Skype sells phone numbers, but I've never gone that route.

Messages from blocked users

I have a, let's just say horrible person as a contact on skype. I've blocked him and he has blocked me, however he continues to spam me to this moment through a group chat. I agree with what others have said. Why is he still able to contact me?

Blocking a person does not apply to group chats. If you block him, then he is not able to send 1-to-1 chat messages to you, but can still send messages to the group chat.
