Yahoo Complaints Continued... (Page 4)

We have had Yahoo.com as our E-mail server for a few years and I have to use the home page to access e-mail. I read many news articles on the home page however it has become more difficult to read ANY story because of all the pop-up ads. My computer is slow so it is very frustrating to read one paragraph of a story then have to click on the read more, wait for all the pop-up ads again, read another paragraph, then repeat again just to read a story that leads you on to more ads. I realize yahoo makes it's money in ads but this is ridiculous. Recently yahoo has changed to the "read more" tactic of pushing ads. If I cannot read a story after one or two "clicks", then I will not pursue it. As of today, all stories you click own takes you to another paragraph and you wait for downloads. Screw this, will be changing to another server.

Much of the time when I access a news article and start to read it, I have to click on "Read More" to access anything past the introductory paragraph. Then in doing so, I'm usually denied reading the article because I don't subscribe to the source. Why post an article in your news section if I can't read it.

What was Yahoo thinking? The new format is unmanageable, and not at all "user friendly." No wonder you have a one star rating. I do have sympathy for those that have to read these complaints, as I was in customer service. Friends and family that use Yahoo are all up in arms, and will likely go to other sources. One star. What was Yahoo thinking when it altered the e:mail format so drastically? Friends and family that use Yahoo are rethinking.

Have been receiving mail supposedly from Yahoo informing of my intention to terminate my yahoo mail service. A form is provided to fill in my yahoo mail user name and to key and confirm the access password. Having submitted the above with provided writings that I did not make such request, the next day I received a mail from Yahoo informing me that there was an attempt to log into my mail in Turkey. A few hours later I received a similar mail informing me again of my intention to terminate my yahoo mail service. Kindly confirm if this is a spam mail.

It is frustrating to start to read something then get a "to read more notice" and when you to that page there is a statement that if you want to read the remainder you need to subscribe to a news paper. If I wanted a subscription to the New York Times, the Miami Herald or the Los Angles Times, I would get it. I depend on Yahoo for my news from other sources besides my local newspaper.

When I open my email inbox, there is a narrow column listing the emails I've received, but three-fourths of the page is taken up by a square with a small icon representing an envelope in the center. Why would anyone want that much blank space on their screen? Your "improvements" are getting worse and worse. My e-mails are not in my box for 3 days now. No pass word gets me in my e-mails. There was a number popped up too help me, and it was the same program as before when they hacked me the first time.

They use a worm program too scare people into letting them in their computers and too buy their fix it program too get me back into my e-mail and clean my machine up. I hung up on them 3 days ago now. and they have taken my e-mails from yahoo, Incredimail and gmail. I can't get in no e-mail in these places. And no pass word works of mine. and trying too get help from yahoo help pages is a joke. sorry, but send me a code?

How can I get that code if I can't sign into my e-mail? Please, and I don't have a dang cell phone. That needs too change, I only have a home phone like million others that I have read their complaints about the same thing. I tried making a new account, no good either. But I really do want my e-mail address and the pass word I can change if you all can help me get this all back too normal for me. There use too be a page years ago, where you could change your pass word without such a dang hassle. Please redo your lost password settings and correct the mobile number. Not everyone has a dang cell phone. If password isn't acceptable, how can a yahoo person get anywhere in gaining back what was lost?

A few weeks ago I couldn't sign in the my yahoo mail. We tried all our passwords and nothing worked. I am finally not impressed with yahoo e-mail. besiders our e-mail doesn't work anymore because of the virus or whatever
so I don't know how you can help with our problem. I have since order another computer because of this and I don't know if its been shipped or not. Thank you very much for screwing up my computer.

I thought my e-mail site was secure. I have pop-up ads AND videos Now in my supposed secure e-mail. Not only do I not want those ads and videos, you've completely slowed my internet! You advertise speed and deliver poorly. Please take care of this.

When I am trying to type an e-mal message the pop-up ads keep blocking me from continuing. I get the "Bling" sound, and the little blue circle going around on my screen. I am unable to type at this time. This is not a casual thing. It is a continuous thing, that makes it hard to complete an e-mail. It takes at least three to four times as long to complete an e-mail, which is frustrating. I hope you can resolve this for me. Thank You.

I totally dislike the e-mail login separated as it is now. Your e-mail name on one page and then you have to go to another page to use password. It's time consuming and inconvenient, especially if you are in a hurry. Why was it changed? Is this the CEO's fault, I thought she would be fired long ago for running Yahoo! into the ground. Can it be put back the way it was so all you have to do is tab and your cursor is moved to the password line?

Yahoo Arabic edition "maktoob", the politics news always speaking with Muslim brotherhood way (terrorist organization by law in Egypt) as they keep on mentioning Coupe in Egypt even the election raised new president and no one calling coup anymore except this terrorist organization. We are expecting neutral politics site as I'm using yahoo for long time and always yahoo is my homepage.

My Yahoo Mail is giving me a problem. When I start typing an email, after a few words it freezes up the typed words show up after some time. The cursor freezes up and then starts up after some time. It is very frustrating and embarrassing as sometimes you think you have typed the word only to find that the word does not contain some of the letters after you have sent off the email.

What happened to the ability to make articles disappear? I don't want to see photos of animal cruelty-- I don't want to click through to this, I don't want my children to see this. This is awful. Please bring back my ability to disappear things like this.

I'm tired of Yahoo continually changing the Yahoo Main Page and email formats. You just start to understand them and are able to find your way around and boom! They have changed. I'm a very busy person and don't have time to sit and read all the articles on the Home Page. I loved the fact that you could use the arrows to scan through all the recent new items in the little boxes and stop on the one that interested you. Now there are only three. Of course you have to see an add for everything you want to look at. I think I will go back to the printed Newspaper and forget Yahoo. At least I can scan it and read just what I want.

I am going to find another email solution to yahoo mail. The scroll of video ads on right eat up my process time and I can not type. Need a solution, tired of dealing with it or moving on.

I called yahoo customer service because i lost my password to my other email. The customer service representative was very rude, she didn't introduce herself when she answered and she immediately put me on hold. After I told her my problem she told me it would cost $120.00 to fix my problem I thought this was absurd. After I declined she immediately hung up on me. I still cant access my email and all she had to do was reset it. I am now changing all of my email traffic to googles gmail. There is no excuse for this type of service.

I am constantly overloaded with update down loads that can lock up my computer for hours. A recent occurrence with 75 downloads took 14 hours. This is followed by a period of not being able to open my accounts, having to confirm my identity, change passwords and other inconveniences. Please do not tell me this is necessary to to preserve security. In Malta last year my Surface tablet got completely frozen up because you had 'noticed some unusual activity', simply because I was traveling in foreign parts.

No one could unlock it and to continue my travels I had to spend NZ$1000 on a new computer. (eventually, in England I found an expert who opened it up and got it going again but in the process I lost all my data, simply because you could not accept I was out of my home territory. ). Then in Hungary you again asked me to confirm my identity by getting a text from another account, Gmail, only to have them do the same thing, so locking each other up. The only solution was to open new accounts, again with the loss of access to data essential to travel.

Perhaps the internet and your systems are not intended for the casual user such a myself, elderly, not interested in Facebook, YouTube, and other social media. But you being in the communications industry and have acquired a virtual monopoly by default, and design, should take account of a larger range of user capabilities, many who do not have familiarity with much of the terminology and jargon or have ready access to solutions when problems arise. So many of my problems are a direct result of your shortcomings. I have wasted three hours today with having to constantly identify myself with verification texts, and changing my password four times, to say nothing of problems trying to find out what my Microsoft password is. You probably have a better idea why my password of the moment is than I do.

I would for one thing like to know what all the updates are for, and why my use of my computer is blocked while this is going on, regardless any urgency I may have. I have tried to anticipate this and initiate the downed loads at a time when I know I am not going to need to go on line. This does not work as expected. I could go on. I have in similar vein done so in the past, to no avail. I have challenged a reader to respond but it has not happened. I do not expect this to be any different. It will be scanned by a computer and deleted. Its only value had been for me to calm my anger at so much wasted time and mental energy when I feel like smashing the computer as a futile gesture of dubious value only to myself.

The only thing that has stopped me trying Apple or Android or some other system is inertia; I would have to learn to find my way around another complex of problems. I lament the loss of Windows XP. That was a pleasure to use. Everything since has ben a dogs breakfast. I hope I have not wasted someone's time with 'this. If I have, surprise me and respond.

I've been with yahoo many years and never had a problem until now. I have had to change my password and I've completely forgot what it is. I have tried everything to get into it to change it again. When the screen comes up showing my phone number, the last two numbers are wrong, so I have not found out where to go from here. I am giving you permission to send me a message to my husband's email account.

A Yahoo! technician tried to extort me, told me I would have to pay $179.99 to have Yahoo mail restored. He said my system was infected by a virus through Mozilla Firefox refresh and that everything was wiped out. He said my computer was ruined, including the modem. When I asked him what he meant, I was not understanding what he was saying, he said " before you understood me, but now that I mention money you don't understand me".

Our school, Morningside Academy at 901 Lenora St, Seattle WA is listed as CLOSED. We are not. Yahoo! needs to do a better job of getting these things right. Tried to call the support line to contact Yahoo! but no answer came back. We do not have a high school, but our school is NOT closed. Thank you for spreading the word so they can hopefully start making this change.

What exactly happened has been happening for 7 years or so. Yahoo is the worse regardless of who is at the helm. I can't open my mail to view, I get a response "having difficulty loading email-try again. I try again and again and again. I will be leaving Yahoo and transferring everything to GMAIL. They seem to have it together. It's always one thing or another with Yahoo. I receive my business emails through Yahoo, and it's nothing but a headache. You don't deserve 1 star--minus 1 star because you don't do your jobs in improving the customer's experience.

I hate the new Yahoo mail format. It's just rubbish. The main reason I always used yahoo was because I liked the way email was laid out. Please please change it back I don't really want to change my mail address and go back to gmail but I will if I have to.

Someone is using my email address. I, myself, am receiving 6 to 8 daily. You can tell who bought you by the fact Yahoo no longer has a customer service who can help you solve your problem. The 3 time I tried for assistance I actually got someone who tried. They had access to my computer and saw the emails (which every email is selling something else) and had me change my password. Still getting emails. I have also sent letters to the two names that was posted on one of the emails your staff opened. Address no good and were returned. How do I stop this. I shouldn't have to change my email address - it is your site and it is up to you to find and report the person who is doing this.

Every time I use your weather forecast service it is at least one day behind and the hourly forecast predictions are from one or two days in the past. Really hard to imagine a high tech ( supposedly) company with such a pathetic programming error. Fix it or cancel the service. It seems like something mundane to repair and it is hard to believe this simple program error has been allowed to occur for this long. Try to have some pride in what you do.
