NB: Deleting your Skype account will not revert or erase any history or messages you had sent from the recipients account. Then click ‘Next’ and follow the on screen instructions to delete your account. Select ‘ Account and Password‘ then ‘ Deleting an Account‘. You have to contact Skype support for this on the support request page. Unfortunately, there is no direct way of deleting your account. If you just signed up for a Skype account directly from the Skype website or app, then the process is a little different.

Follow the instructions on that page until the Microsoft account together with your Skype account is deleted. To delete your Microsoft account click on Close your Account. If you created a Microsoft account just for Skype, then you can delete the Microsoft account itself and your Skype will get deleted in that process. Remember to change the account status or presence setting to “offline.” The process of closing a Skype account does not change your “presence” setting.This will prevent any future payments that could be recurring.

Remove any saved payment methods from your account dashboard.Once your account is deleted from the Skype servers, you will never access it again so before you delete your Skype account, make sure you cancel any active subscriptions associated with your account.The process of deleting your Skype account mainly depends on how you created it.

If you have made the decision to permanently get rid of your Skype account, you must be willing to go through the ‘not straight forward’ steps I’m about to show you.
