@Cypress Hill - I use this method for several years now and not see what the problem is in my post.

Please share your comments so as I can reply to it.

Requirements for option 3 (I not married):

I can understand from a technical point that it is not always possible to DELETE accounts but at least you should have the option to CLOSE an account so it is not visible anymore.

Also companies can now claim that they have 15.000.000 users while actually they only have 9.500.000 users as 5.500.000 users can't delete / close their account!

Oh well, then I just leave it like it is and just change all my account details.....

This is heartbreaking.....

Unfortunately it is not possible to entirely delete a Skype account. So you cannot learn how to close Skype account permanently.

However, you can remove all personal details from your account profile, so that people cannot search for you in Skype using

any of this information.Mar 16, 2013

How to Delete Skype Account Permanently - YouTube

Already done that but still I want to remove it, it's my name and I want it removed from the Skype database.

That makes no sense whatsoever. Even if the account could be closed you would still always be associated with it. The company would always have that record and your name (or alias) would always be on it. Your reasons (if we can call them that) are purely emotional and not based on any demonstrated harm or benefit. It's not like a credit card account where keeping it open actually constitutes a liability for the account holder. Keeping a skype or email account open (but just not using it any more) doesn't obligate you to do anything or charge you with any liability.

But if it bothers you that much, just change the name on the account to John Doe and change the password to a random string of text that you'll never guess in a million years. Voilà! It's not your account any more.

Double post - please remove

It has become pretty standard practice for some time not to close or terminate service-based accounts like email and such (and skype is a communications service tied to your MS account), because companies that do this are only setting themselves up for the inevitable onslaught of service requests and complaints by customers who will eventually want the account opened again. Therefore, the standard suggestion from most providers is to simply stop using the service.

What does closing the account accomplish anyway?

I just want my name removed from their database.

Press "windows key" + "space bar" and you can toggle between all the keyboard languages.

I have several Skype accounts that I want to close but it seems to be impossible to do that, you need to talk to a Microsoft representative and of course that doesn't work.

Anybody any idea how to close them??

Thanks for your help.

Maybe there is a crossdressing party at the temple?

Get an account with "a hoster" install for example Wordpress and you are done. If you are technically enough there is no need to hire a third party to do it for you, except (as mentioned before by chrisinth) search engine rating, that's a different field!

Thanks for all your opinions, still strange that it is available in Hausa, Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, Pashto, Sinhala, Somali - didn't even know these languages existed.....

When I look at the BBC website, I see a lot of languages - even languages I have never heard off - but NOT Thai, why is that?

This is something you can't buy with 'money' in Thailand - Internet is as it is, sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Just look at all the cables in your soi and I think it is still a miracle we HAVE internet in Thailand :-)

<serious mode> Just check in your area what people use and if it is reliable or not </serious mode>

Looks like his friends in the bar will miss him for a while....

Does Thailand also receive condolences letters from the Indonesian Government every time soldiers die in the South of Thailand by road bombs caused my Muslim separatists?

Lovely story and God willing will have a happy ending.I Wish a speedy recovery to you Lucy,lassie from Lancashire.

If God want this to have a happy ending, why did God want her to have an accident in the first place?

Sounds very selfish to me....

You never KNOW in advance what you will get - it is just a surprise when you arrive.

This is exact the reason why I do not book in advance anymore!

In my opinion "Thai for Beginners" from Benjawan Poomsan Becker together with the MP3 files is still one of the best ways to learn the language.

Who is the girl in the middle?

Very well explained at:

I lived near the sea for 30 years and people have no idea how dangerous the sea but also rivers and lakes sometimes are!

..and the world is silence as usual. They still want me to believe that Islam is Peace
