Skype call history

BigEasy · Post by **BigEasy** » Mon Apr 02, 2012 9:24 am

Hello everyone,

From what I can see it's not possible to print/export/view any kind of call log from Skype unless the call is made using Skype credit, meaning the free video calls don't get logged.

Can anyone confirm if this is true and, even better, if it is not true what the method is for getting at the data.

I've seen a few posts on here talking about using Skype history but it seems to me that the only thing I can print is the instant messaging.

Many thanks,
Scott.

As far as I'm aware the best way to do it is to take screen shots of your history which is available if you click on the contacts name in Skype. Then just paste these into word.

You should be able to show calls history together with instant msgs. They are in same history. Just do print screen, copy paste and print them all together, and let them read if they wish. The more evidence like this, the better... If you have mobile phone texts you may submit those as well. I exported that and submitted.

hi i was also thinking of using one of these programs to print off skype print screens. But what put me off is the format it might display the call history in may not be familiar to what the ECO is used to seeing.

do most people just do print screens? and is this the norm? or is there another way

Print screen is the popular way

Hi ,

I had my visa accepted and i provided

all skype to skype (FREE) call history- using a program called skype export, this exports it to Excel and gives time spoken dates etc.

I also screen printed our chat history for the start/middle/end of each month (bit un realistic to give them every days worth because it would be so much to print)

She may be right, but you still need to submit evidence of genuine relationship. So it is absolutely up to you what you are gonna share with UKBA and what not. I was rejected spouse visa on this basis, and i advice everybody to not hesitate to share their privacy, if that can help.

To be honest i was not comfortable either, but it was either show them we communicated every day or put doubts into there head that we didn't communicate, at the end of the day they are just doing there job so If i were you i would supply them the info !

I agree - I'm not particularly keen on sharing my bank statements with them but them's the rules, and it's not worth jeopardising the application over a reluctance to share information, however personal.

They need to tick boxes so it seems foolish to deny them one.
