Hi,

Many things in the past, such as Skype me! Were taken down because of
misbehaviour and abusement. So this change was made for the same reason in
my opinion. Many automated Skype accounts were sending links containing
viruses or inapropriate visuals. Now the user have more control of who can
contact. But as I said, very unfortunate for commercial accounts. My
webhosting company provides live chat service through their website and
Skype. So if a user wants some help and chooses Skype as a live chat method,
they should first add them to their contact and wait for a reply start a
live chat session. That is amusing.

Regards!
Salih

I agree. In my job we exchange contact card in skype when I have to sub.
I'm already aware of this, however I don't like this idea as well. I'm
beginning to get a bit worried that skype are going down the tubes. I agree
with where they are coming from, however this could in my humble opinion ben
handled better.

Hi,

Exactly, I can say that it's nothing to do with your friend's computer
or phone. This is how it is. I think this change is also really odd
for commercials handling chats with Skype accounts, because you could
chat with them right from the find a contact screen by finding them,
now you have to wait for them to accept your request. Also bad for
commercial Skype account holders because they have to accept everyone even
for a simple question.

Allright Salih, thanks for your reply. So in short, no ways to get
through this, right?
Bye!
