Why Was My Skype Account Suspended?

You found your Skype account partially suspended? It has happened because:

  1. The platform’s security system detected some suspicious activity
  2. You may have committed some form of the violation of Terms of Service
  3. You’ve activated a chargeback process

Whatever the reason is behind the partial suspension, you’ll lose access to paid products and the ability to transfer these products to another account. You won’t get a refund either, while free calls and messages will remain available to you.

Skype Account Temporarily Suspended Due to Suspicious Activity

Suspicious activity is viewed as a safety concern primarily for the user. This raises concern that someone else has access to your account, so Skype suspends any account that shows signs of unusual activity to protect your data or account from potential abuse.

Skype Account Suspended Due to Terms of Use Violations

Skype can partially suspend your account if you’ve violated Terms of Use in some way. Check out the list of prohibited activities:

  • Engaging in any illegal activities via the platform
  • Using the platform for any activities harmful to children
  • Engaging in fraudulent activities such as embezzling or impersonating others
  • Using the service to share inappropriate or harmful content, such as hate speech, graphic violence, pornography, nudity, or offensive language
  • Intentionally sending harmful software (malware) to other users
  • Violating other users’ rights, including rights to intellectual property
  • Violating other people’s privacy
  • Stealing private info from other users (phishing)
  • Spamming, i.e., sharing unwanted content in bulk
  • Using subscriptions for purposes such as telemarketing or providing call center services
  • Calling different numbers with the aim of generating profit as a result of placing a call
  • Unusual activity that doesn’t correspond with an individual's usage of our service for private purposes. This includes regular short calls or a large number of calls over a short period
  • Reselling subscription minutes
  • Sharing your subscription with another user
  • Circumventing the restrictions that the company imposed on your account
  • Helping other users break these rules

Skype Account Suspended During the Chargeback Process

Besides the listed reasons, another one for partial suspension is an ongoing chargeback process since this means there is an issue with your payment info or method.

How Do I Unsuspend My Skype Account?

If your Skype account has been suspended, you’ll see a message below the Skype to Phone subscriptions line on your account. The message will contain a link to the support ticket that you should open. Take a look at the whole process:

  1. Log in to your account from a web browser
  2. Look for the banner with the message saying that you have been restricted and containing a link titled Fix your account
  3. Click this link
  4. Choose the payment method you used on your account
  5. Fill out the form that opens
  6. Click Submit

Keep in mind that your complaint may get lost among all others, so don’t be surprised if you don’t get a response for days.

If you’re wondering how to get unbanned from Skype, you can only try to appeal the company’s decision via a support ticket. If they don’t accept your complaint, they will notify you only of the decision. You won’t have info on the reason for the ban nor access to further communication with the support team.
