Website providing IP of any skype account to anyon...

I am shocked to find a website that is currently allowing anyone for free to find an IP of any Skype account they type in. It finds my IP and my friends and is correct. It also then goes to allow you to flood the IP to bring the users internet to a halt on another website. Is this website known by Microsoft? How do I protect myself from this? Here is the link.

Hi, Jaminy, and welcome to the Community,
Report this incident to your local law enforcement agency. The police have the resources to obtain the information you seek from Skype directly; Skype's Customer Service representatives do not have access to this information.
Here is a link to start with: contact customer service

I cannot connect any skype accounts on my Eurostar...

Hello. I have tried for a number of days now to connect 'preloaded' skype on my Eurostar Smart TV. I have used my existing account details and also tried with my Microsoft account, but no joy. I have also tried to create a new skype account on my tv.
All these things respond with the message 'cannot connect to skype at this time, please check your mobile settings and try again'.
I am connected to my wireless router and have a good internet connection.
Can anyone help? This TV was bought for my kids playroom so they can skype their grandparents as we live a long way from home.
Thank you

Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
Can you pleaes share the exact model name of your Eurostar Smart TV? This way we can verify the support situation for the Skype for TV app used on that model.

Refused to pay scammers. Got skype account banned.

Several days ago received a letter on my email, he asked for 70$ or he will ban my skype.
If I ignore his email or refuse to pay he promised to ban my account.
He guaranteed that he can ban any skype account through bug in the system and asked for any skype login if I want him to proof his ability.
I refused to pay and my skype was blocked. Support says that my accounts are under investigation right now.
This person explained how he can block any skype account:
They send a message to their friends asking to spam report any skype.
After 20-50 such reports your skype automatically blocked
Instruction how to block any skype step-by-step is published on various websites, for example largest IT website in Russia: http://habrahabr.ru/post/183302/
Currently both of my Skypes are blocked : login: "s---" and "a---"
I have used s--- for business chat with clients and now I don't have a possibility to work and my work completely stopped.
I have used a--- for personal purposes on my iPhone and it is blocked too.
I guarantee that all who reported me on spam never recieved any message from me
Also our news partner and largest Diablo 3 fan-site was blocked almost the same time as our skype. There is already about 150 likes from readers asking to unlock his skype.
http://community.skype.com/t5/%D0%97%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BA%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%...

Do you know any solution how to protect myself from scammers?
Right now I registered new one "[Removed for privacy]" and they already ask money again and promise to block new skype as well, as they can trace my skype on website which is widely known because of my work and I need to place my skype on my website.
I suppose premium skype does not help from scammers? Maybe Business Skype will help?
I think it is very bad idea that anyone can be blocked forever by spam reports from people that never wrote to you and you never wrote to them.

Should I download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash to use with Lion? My need for Flash is very basic: Google Maps, YouTube, and content on certain websites. Thanks for any help you are able to provide.

Should I download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash to use with Lion? My need for Flash is very basic: Google Maps, YouTube, and content on certain websites. Thanks for any help you are able to provide.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I have read so many comments about Flash being incompatible with Lion I was wondering whether to download it or not. So many sites on the Web still require flash, however, you almost don't have a choice but to download it even if it is incompatible. I gather a better version of Flash will be available for Lion soon. Again, thanks for the help. I will download the latest version of Flash.

Hello and welcome to the Skype Community!
The reason you can't make calls is because you are calling from the UAE which blocks all outbound VoIP traffic including Skype to protect the state monopoly. Accessing the internet using a VPN to avoid the block may assist.

Is there any way to log in using a skype account, not a Microsoft one?

I can only log into the app using the Microsoft account, however I have most of my skype contacts in my old skype account, is there a way to log in to the app using the skype account instead?

Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
I'm afraid you can only sign in to Skype Translator using a Microsoft account. You can - however - link your Microsoft account to your "old" Skype account and then juse Skype Translator that way. Keep in mind though that you will lose the contact list of your Microsoft account based Skype account that way.

How Do I Close My Skype Account?

Dear Readers,
This question is asked a lot here in the Community, particularly on this message board. Perhaps this topic added here will be helpful.   This FAQ article explains the process of how to remove your Skype account (the blue type is actually a "link" to the FAQ article): https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA142/how-do-i-close-my-skype-account
First, remember to cancel all active subscriptions. If you think you might be entitled to a refund, please see this FAQ to determine this: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12147/when-can-i-get-a-refund?
Second, remove any saved payment methods from your account dashboard.
Third, remember to change the account status or presence setting to "offline." For your convenience, an abridged version of the FAQ article's text - specific only to removing a Skype account - is copied and pasted below:
How do I close my Skype account?
If you want to close your Skype account, you’ll need to contact us so we can close it for you.
First, make sure you’ve cancelled any subscriptions or recurring payments, and used up any Skype Credit you have. Everything associated with your Skype account – including contacts, purchases and history – will be lost when your account is closed.
Next, contact Skype Customer Service and tell us you’d like to close your account.
It might take up to 30 days for your name to disappear from the directory, but after that, no one will be able to find you in Skype. Your name will still appear in your friends’ contact lists unless they remove it, but they won’t be able to contact you.
In the meantime, you can remove your personal information from your profile to prevent people from finding you based on those details.
Remove your profile information
This will make it more difficult for people to find you in the Skype directory. You can remove or edit all of your details except for your Skype Name.
To remove your profile information:
Change your profile picture and mood message.
If you have a profile picture that identifies you, you might want to change it. In Skype, click Skype > Profile > Change Your Picture… (on a Mac, click your profile picture and then Change Picture) and browse for a different picture.
You can leave a status message saying you’re no longer active on Skype, or giving your new Skype Name if you’re using a different account. Go to Skype > Profile > Edit Your Profile… and then click Enter mood message. (On a Mac, click your name or profile picture and then click Add Mood Message.)
Sign out of Skype.
It’s a good idea to set your status to offline or invisible, and then sign out of Skype on all your devices. Type the chat command /remotelogout into the chat window to sign yourself out of Skype on any other devices you might be using, then sign out on the one you’re using now.
Go to your account.
Sign in to your account on skype.com
Can’t sign in? Find out what to do if you’ve forgotten your username or password.
Go to your profile.
Scroll to the bottom of the page and, under Settings and preferences, click Edit profile.
Edit your profile details.
In the Personal Information section, click Edit.
Remove your information from the Personal Information and Contact Details sections. Some fields are mandatory - replace the info in these with random characters, because you won’t be able to save it if the fields are empty. Click Save.
Please remember this is a one-time request which cannot be reversed.
One more point to keep in mind: removing your account from the Search Directory will not "pull," "remove," "delete," or "retract" instant messages or file transfers that you have previously sent to your contacts. Your account name will still appear on their contact lists, although they will no longer be able to contact you using the account name you have requested be removed.
The last step of the process is to file your request to remove your account with Skype Customer Service.   This final and required step in the process is often overlooked, and we here in the Community are not authorized to process service requests. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
Skype is aware of sporadic website issues. Temporarily enabling scripts, disabling browser add-ins that might disable pop-up dialog boxes, and temporarily enabling pop-up dialog boxes may help get you through to Skype Customer Service. If you still experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser.
Look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.

Elaine

This FAQ article provides next steps:

Please see the section titled, "Hacked Accounts." Please also sign on to your Skype account dashboard to ensure that your account's registered e-mail address is correct and accurate. Change your account password if you have not already done so - the easiest way to accomplish this is from within the software or app. In the Windows Desktop version, it's Skype -> Change Password.
You will be directed to contact Skype Customer Service for assistance. These tips may be helpful as Skype is experiencing continuing problems with the websites: If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented.
Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.

Cannot login with my Skype Account name,

I have tried to login to Skype and the following error returns:
"Sorry, we didn't recognize you sign-in details. Please check etc. etc."
My account does exist as I have asked my friends if they can see it. Why has this happened? I have searched the Skype so-called knowledge base and cannot find an answer. Does Skype disable accounts if inactive for any period of time?
Any help is appreciated,
Solved!

Skype is useless for this.
They will claim that you the user are responsible, and that they don't need to do anyhing.
So....
Do not allow Skype to autorefill your account when it runs low on balance, and do not store a creditcard, or other payment info with them.
Each user is liable for whatever the hackers can steal.
As this is from recent personal experience, I recommend you to never keep payment information on file with Skype.

Skype account restricted

I bought a skype unlimited call to India. I am using it for calling relatives, local call and my friends. Suddenly I got an email stating below:
Fair usage policy violation blocking
We have noticed some prohibited usage of your Skype subscription.
As a result, your subscription will be terminated within the next 24 hours, moreover, you will no longer be able to use or purchase any of Skype’s paid-for products.
The suspension of your access to Skype paid-for products is permanent and you will be unable to transfer any existing paid-for products to a new Skype account, or receive a refund. However, you will be able to continue to make Skype-to-Skype calls and send instant messages.
No explanation and nothing.
Is this fair to block my paid subscription without even a single warning? In the middle of my ongoing subscription?
Please note these points :
1)     This Skype id is maximum login on three devices – my two smartphones and a Pc.
2)     Mostly long calls are on selected approx 5 numbers which are of relatives,my wife.
3)     Mostly short call are to my big circle of friends and my wife also uses to call her relatives as this is our family account..cant we do it?
4)     Total no of calls I don’t know is how much but its our account and me , my wife our kids all like to use what we bought. But surely there are not millions of calls we do from this…..
This is so sad and irritating being a such long customer of skype iam facing this. Earlier we used to use the calling option from PC so the calls may be less in number last year but these year we started using skype on smart phones via wifi so our numbers increased….but is this wrong? We are using our smartphones J
Iam real wondering what should I do as I have left around 25 euros in my account and iam the person who was till date so impressed with skype that I have recommended it to all my friends , relatives’…I was a big fan but then this happened…
Please skype customer service team I couldn’t find how to contact you so please consider all the points I said above and before kicking me out let me know my fault..
Pleaseeeeeeeeeee….
My id – [Removed for privacy]
Email – (removed)
Full name : (removed)
phone : (removed)
"Skype fair policy:
Using subscriptions for telemarketing or call centre operations;
Re-selling subscription minutes;
Sharing subscriptions between users whether via a PBX, call centre, computer or any other means;
Calling numbers (whether singly, sequentially or automatically) to generate income for yourself or others as a result of placing the call, other than for your individual business communications (and subject to Section 4.1 of the Terms of Use); and
Unusual calling patterns inconsistent with normal, individual subscription use, for example, regular calls of short duration or calls to multiple numbers in a short period of time.
I am wondering which clause I violated????

Skype Account Hacked - Will this affect my Microso...

Last Wednesday, I received an e-mail receiving confirmation of my password change, and confirmation of my new e-mail address. Of course, I had changed neither and contacted Skype to let them know that someone had hacked my Skype account.
Several exchanges with them later and things are still being sorted out (after six days). I have reached the stage where I have the link to reset my password, but unfortunately that takes me through to the Microsoft website and it is not the Microsoft password I need to change, but one associated with my Skype Login. Anyway, I digress.
I was wondering, if someone has got into my Skype account, using my Skype password, is there any chance he may be rooting around in my Microsoft Account (Outlook, OneDrive, etc). Or would he have needed to also get around my Microsoft password to do that. I suspect the latter, as that is where I am being sent.
Would anyone like to put my mind at rest?

You can try to retrieve the sync key from that mobile device.

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!!
