My Skype window currently says there are over 8 million people online.
Knowing that often, you "Get what you pay for", I guess I can understand why
Skype has now not replied to my 3 requests for help in over 5 DAYS, but
it's unbelievable to me that I cannot find anyone in 24hoursupport.helpdesk
or uk.telecom.voip who knows WHO, HOW, WHY, WHERE or WHAT can cause "Your
Skype Account has been BLOCKED!" One person suggested multiple account
problems. I have only one Skype account and pay with Paypal!
