Skype: withdraw contact request - is that possible?

If you have sent a contact request to Skype, you will quickly not be able to withdraw the request. We'll tell you if there is such a function at all.

Withdraw contact request from Skype - is that possible?

• Unfortunately there is currently no way to delete a contact request. If you have sent the request, it will go directly to the relevant person.
• The message within the contact request can no longer be changed. Contact inquiries and their content should therefore be carefully considered.
• However, there is an alternative to withdrawing: if you block the contact, the contact can accept the request but cannot write it back to you.
• To do this, right-click on the person in your contact list and select the "Block" option. You can find detailed instructions here.
