Thank you for your report.
I wasn't able to reproduce the issue (so at least it's not a global problem).

Could you tell me more about how the error happened? Are you using authentication with simple credentials (skype login and password)? Is it a temporary error? Is it a new error (were you able to connect to Skype before)?

Since he is using https://github.com/matrix-hacks/matrix-puppet-skype I can answser a bit: (I am unable to reproduce his issue, too, and told him to make an issue here, since it appears to be within the skype-http library itself)

This is authenticating using username / password,

skypehttp.connect({
    credentials: {
        username: "blah",
        password: "blah"
    },
    verbose: true
})

Thank you.
I would have expected a 403 error to happen earlier during the login process. When the error happens, the user is already logged (as the logs show it) but is forbidden to register an endpoint for polling. Registration allows to later query new events.

I'd like you to try a few things.

Here is the JS version of subscribeToResources (in dist/lib-est2015/lib/login.js):

function subscribeToResources(ioOptions, registrationToken) {
    return __awaiter(this, void 0, void 0, function* () {
        // TODO(demurgos): typedef
        // tslint:disable-next-line:typedef
        const requestDocument = {
            interestedResources: [
                "/v1/threads/ALL",
                "/v1/users/ME/contacts/ALL",
                "/v1/users/ME/conversations/ALL/messages",
                "/v1/users/ME/conversations/ALL/properties",
            ],
            template: "raw",
            channelType: "httpLongPoll",
        };
        const requestOptions = {
            uri: messagesUri.subscriptions(registrationToken.host),
            cookies: ioOptions.cookies,
            body: JSON.stringify(requestDocument),
            headers: {
                RegistrationToken: registrationToken.raw,
            },
        };
        const res = yield ioOptions.io.post(requestOptions);
        if (res.statusCode !== 201) {
            return Promise.reject(new incident_1.Incident("net", `Unable to subscribe to resources: statusCode: ${res.statusCode} body: ${res.body}`));
        }
        // Example response:
        // {
        //   "statusCode": 201,
        //   "body": "{}",
        //   "headers": {
        //     "cache-control": "no-store, must-revalidate, no-cache",
        //       "pragma": "no-cache",
        //       "content-length": "2",
        //       "content-type": "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        //       "location": "https://db5-client-s.gateway.messenger.live.com/v1/users/ME/endpoints/SELF/subscriptions/0",
        //       "x-content-type-options": "nosniff",
        //       "contextid": "tcid=3434983151221922702,server=DB5SCH101121535",
        //       "date": "Sat, 14 May 2016 16:41:17 GMT",
        //       "connection": "close"
        //   }
        // }
    });
}

1. Replace interestedResources by an empty array. If you get a 403 even with an empty array, we'll have to investigate further. If the request succeeds, try each resource individually to find the one which causes the error.

2. Instead of emitting res.body in the error, please log the headers (JSON.stringify(res.headers)).

function subscribeToResources(ioOptions, registrationToken) {
    return __awaiter(this, void 0, void 0, function* () {
        // TODO(demurgos): typedef
        // tslint:disable-next-line:typedef
        const requestDocument = {
            interestedResources: [
            //    "/v1/threads/ALL",
            //  "/v1/users/ME/contacts/ALL",
            //    "/v1/users/ME/conversations/ALL/messages",
            //    "/v1/users/ME/conversations/ALL/properties",
            ],
            template: "raw",
            channelType: "httpLongPoll",
        };
        const requestOptions = {
            uri: messagesUri.subscriptions(registrationToken.host),
            cookies: ioOptions.cookies,
            body: JSON.stringify(requestDocument),
            headers: {
                RegistrationToken: registrationToken.raw,
            },
        };

I hope I understand correctly. I did so. and got the same error as in the beginning

Thank you, that's what I had in mind.
Since you still get a 403 error, it means that the issue was not with a particular resource but the whole registration process. I guess that the official web application works for you? (this library acts as an alternate client mimicking the web application). If it works, I'd need some logs to compare which HTTP requests the web app performs for you. I'll take some time this evening to test it myself and tell you what I need exactly.
