Since around 18:00 GMT, we've been having some problems with Auto-recharge and recurring payments.

Auto-recharge and Recurring payments aren't working as normal, so your balance may fall below the minimum amount without being topped up and your subscription will be renewed with delay. You can still buy Skype credit as normal.

All delayed payments will be made with delay after the issues have been resolved.

We hope to have things back to normal in the next few hours, and we're sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime.

UPDATE: Issue was resolved 2009-02-05 06:00 GMT and payments are processed as normal again.
