There are literally hundreds of comments, questions and bug reports about this on Skype's forum ( one example among many) with no useful response from Skype. I've had major problems where a client has tried to call me about some urgent matter, and I've not even known that they called until weeks later. Even worse, it doesn't notify of missed calls until you next open the app window.
