Since 2 days ago, Skype no longer works within Thailand on multiple ISPs and on at least 5 different account holders I’ve checked with.

Is this a global/regional issue or are we experiencing some form of local blocking/censorship?

Any other PPruNers in the area?

It's a global issue that they're working on, check their website for details. It affects the ability to log in.

Bushfiva,

Thanks for that.

KC,

And thanks for offer - seems nothing to be done until Skype fix their problem.

However, some countries are blocking Skype, including the UAE (Abu Dhabi, Dubai etc.). All Voice-over-IP software competes with the local telecoms monopoly, so they block them. (No, I'm not exaggerating.)

Had the same problem in the USA, was a skype thing, all OK now.
