Skype Spam Sucks!!!!!

I lodged a complaint to Skype, and I shall also post it here as I discourage people form wasting money on this company.

I have decided not to renew any of my subscriptions, telephone numbers, etc, and also to let my Skype credit run to nothing and not add more. I am also considering uninstalling and never using Skype again. The reason is all the Add Contact spam I'm receiving. I can't stay logged in for more than an hour without getting at least 30 requests. I've set my privacy to not allow anything from people not in my contact list, and I still receive these. When I log in, I set myself to invisible. I still receive these. There have been several complaints logged on the forums, and it has only gotten worse over the last few months despite multiple complaints and an update. Also, finding any way to contact you on this site required multiple hoops and a lot of searching. All of this leads me to believe that Skype does not care for the privacy and satisfaction of their customers. Until this changes, I am not at all inclined to use this, and will furthermore send this complaint to my entire contact list, my twitter folllowers, and post this to my blog to encourage them to discontinue use as well.
