So… this is *super* lame.
I signed up for Skype back in February. I haven’t really had much need to use it, but I may here in the near future.
Back in Feb, I decided to buy $10 of credit just so i could do SkypeOut and such.
Well, upon finding my credit balance at $0.00 I started to wonder what was going on. Check this little gem out:
Your Skype Credit balance remains active for 180 days after your last successfully-connected PSTN phone call.
Skype Credit balances on accounts with no activity during a 180 day period will be lost.
- Skype Help
B.S. if you ask me. I see if you want to buy there is a “Credit expires after 180 days of inactivity”, but it is something that you could easily just skate by w/o really noticing .
Skype, a reminder email or something would’ve been helpful. Instead of just sucking my money.
