SkypeWTF

Up until now, I loved Skype. I thought it fantastic to have. It has been nothing but a pleasure for me to use.. until now..
Through some screwy problem they reset the account passwords for a lot of people. Mine was one of them. I also have moved to a new e-mail address and didn’t even think of updating my skype info that is required to retrieve a lost password. Well, my friends, for the last 6 days I have been waiting for them to fix the problem. Their support sucks. I have SkypeIn and SkypeOut .. so I am a paying customer. I gave them all the information they have requested.. but to no avail..
The worst part of this story is that there are no current competitiors to Skype. I can’t go elsewhere…
I guess I will have to post about the booze situation in Norway tomorrow.

Ha! I was wondering what the hell was going on, but didn’t have the patience to deal with it. I too have a Skypein and Skypeout account. Your story exactly mirrors mine in every way. Let me know when you get a meaningful update to the wonky nonsense. I am back on iChat, which is keeping me happy as always.
