Trouble making a skype for sales

[2jz]

I can make a skype account but I can't set up a unique username? Is this something that you can no longer do? Customers are having trouble looking me up by username

Microsoft account

You can use the above link to make a skype account with a username. Skype no longer has this option on their main homepage, however.

Are you having trouble with the link? You need a phone number to create a skype username these days. The link should take you to the set up page.

On the desktop application, you can provide your phone number and make a Skype username. So try using your laptop. When opening up the application, there should be an option to "sign up" so just click on it.

Idk much about this problem, but have you tried contacting their livechat here: What is live chat support?

You need to sign in to your account and from what I see you can do that but it doesn't make a unique username? Lmk if you need anything else

 

I believe you should be able to set up easily with an email (Hotmail or otherwise). If you use Hotmail I believe it comes with live: on the front of the name?

I recommend doing what sneaky fish said and if all else fails let me know I'll investigate the issue for you in high detail
