I cannot remove Skype advertisements

There is an old thread in /r/pcmasterrace but it's not working for me anymoe http://ift.tt/2cpaQK4 I have added both apps.skype.com and https://apps.skype.com and still see the advertisements. I even tried changing the region to Antarctica but it still didn't help. Screenshots of how it looks - http://ift.tt/2xwNSwl

I also tried editing the config.xml file and either changing the tag <Advertplacement> to 0 or removing it completely, it didn't change anything apart from the fact that it wanted me to provide login credentials again. I tried making the file read only after the changes, that didn't do it either.

Any ideas how to solve this? I am not an administrator on this computer. I could get it for 24h if needed. It runs Windows 7 64bit enterprise edition.
