    cant connect to skype with window 10

    Ive recently updated to windows 10 and have had issues with skype not working correctly. When I eventually managed to sign in I now am unable to change my status to online. The only status it is allowing me is offline. Where I cannot call any contacts.
    This issue is I believe down to skype not being fully compatible with windows 10. Does anyone know if I need to change any settings on my surface pro 3.

    Issues with Skype status and calling

    People across the world have been unable to use Skype today due to "issues" with the popular video-calling service.

    Affected users are unable to start Skype calls with their contacts, who show up as offline even if they have signed in to the service.

    Users in the UK are suffering the most, according to The Inquirer.

    The problems are reported to have started around 9.15am UK time.
