This wikiHow teaches you how to decline and block a new Skype contact request when you’re using an Android. As of June 2017, it’s not possible to block all unsolicited contact requests--you'll have to block them individually as they're received.
Steps
-
1Open Skype. The app has a blue and white icon with a large “S.” You’ll find it on your home screen or in the app drawer.
-
2Tap your new notification. You’ll see it at the top of the screen. This opens the new contact request.Advertisement
-
3Tap Decline. A confirmation window will appear.
-
4Check the box next to “Block.”
- If you believe the message request is spam, you can also check the box beside “Report as spam.”
-
