Comment on A Sad Story of a Stolen Skype Account, or the Worst Support Ever

Comments

With all due respect, you used a weak password and don't remember what email address you used to sign up to Skype? If Skype was of any importance to you then surely you'd know what you email you registered with at the very least.

I sign up with Skype seven years ago. I changed my email multiple times since then. In the end, I found the right email, though.

Remembering the email you used seven years ago is not the hardest thing. It's much worse with the registration month and year. No one remembers that.

Anyway, I submitted both the email and the registration date, but Skype support still doesn't verify me, so I guess it doesn't really matter.
