Yahoo! yahoo mail

I am unable to send emails from my phone to other Yahoo email users. It used to work and now it does not. I just get a return error email. I don't want to have to adjust anything or screw around with my phone settings. I have also had many issues with needing an authorization code when signing in on my computer, the one I have used for a decade. I just want it to work without doing backflips. Funny how my phone is ok for receiving an authorization code but unable to send emails. Arrghh, so sick of Yahoo bs.

Yahoo! hacked again

Hello Yahoo, on the back of having all my contacts hacked a few years ago I have tried to shut down my account but the hackers have my contacts. Yesterday, they sent a blanket email to my contacts and used my name as the name of the email address. The address was not mine but people thought it was from me. Is there any way to address this?

I am extremely frustrated

Yahoo! a company advertising with yahoo with additional content called outback vision protocol

As a practicing Eye Doctor for more than 32 years, I was shocked to see an advertisement today on my Yahoo page which contained a video and much more content information from a company which calls itself Outback Vision Protocol. This obvious scam "company" is making claims and statements that are absolutely false and dangerous to the general population all for the purpose of selling a "scientific smoothie" whereby they claim falsely will cure Macular Degeneration, Glaucoma, Cataracts in addition to Nearsightedness, Farsightedness and Astigmatism...not to mention Presbyopia (focusing issues which occur after age 40-45). The statements made are so outlandish and dangerous to the community...giving them false hope...and having them seek a "snake oil" so-to-speak that can keep them from having actual medical treatments which are designed to save as much vision as possible. Yahoo cannot and should not tolerate grossly dangerous individuals...when discovered...to advertise and place such grossly false and dangerous material on its search engine. I implore you as a caring eye physician to please remove this content immediately. Please contact me with your response asap! I can be reached at [protected]@att.net.

Thank you!

Dr. Andrew Soss

What carries weight is basic science, anatomy and physiology. At this time there is nothing short of a miracle that will instantly cure eye disease that causes blindness. And plain common sense would inform one that anyone who claims that some obscure, difficult to obtain ingredient, is the only thing that can cure blindness is bogus. Anytime you see an advertisement that is as long as this one, and tells you that big Pharma is going to try to take it down immediately, that everything is a conspiracy, then it's pretty much a guarantee that it's junk. Preying on the desperate and naive is a time-honored way for charlatans to make money. While there may be more on this Earth than we understand, miraculously curing blindness does not exist at this time. I wish you well.

The practicing eye doctor is offering no rationale for his conclusions or statements. The fact that he claims to be a doctor carries no weight with me. Doctors have always been trained by Universities who get paid by Big Pharma to create a curriculum which educates the medical profession to be ignorant to the truth. We all know that no matter what occupation you are in, or what business you own, you are not going to contribute to the demise of your employment or business whether it helps anyone or not. In the end, everything is about earning money. It is not about helping people. It is not about curing disease or finding extremely cheap alternatives to fossil fuels to power our vehicles or manufacturing vehicles or any other product to last for 50 years. It is about creating a continuing revenue for whatever the business is and you do not do that by providing what I listed below (yes providing, because it has already been created or discovered). Yes, I can say the same thing about the program offered above. However, I am saying that the doctor's credibility, isn't any better than the advertiser he is complaining about. This is true whether the doctor believes what he is saying because that was how he was trained, or he more interested in there being higher demand for physicians.

Yahoo! yahoo news

When is Yahoo going to start with fair news coverage? All I see is articles by Huff post and Newsweek which are clearly mouth pieces for the Liberal community. It was disclosed by Donna Brazille that Hillary Clinton rigged the primary election with Bernie Sanders and of course, Yahoo never reported. Yahoo quit being Liberal and start being American

Yahoo! yahoo news

I read news from various sources but Yahoo is A trick playing joke. You can clearly tell you're an anti trump news source but even non political articles are a joke, any headline I check into to read is about skincare, what a joke Yahoo is

How about the media get serious about what it publishes and act a little professional, how about adding some truth to what we publish and if it's an editorial, how about more than one leftist leaning side? How about we as a group care about all people of Amer a not just the ones who feel they are the educated elite? How about we just start caring where our country is really heading, and caring about each other?

Yahoo! customer service - account locked

Hello,

I have a yahoo account that is locked - I don't know why as I know the username and password - and the only way to unlock it is to enter the key received on the secondary email. Unfortunalty the secondarily email is a mailbox from my former internet provider I don´t have access any more.
In yahoo help there is absolutely no way to solve this situation and there is no other option (as direct contact to a support center for example) available.

As I am the owner of the account and can prove the personal data, yahoo should give me a way to access my account.

Yahoo! mail

I have not access my mail for a while and even after going through the verification process from another email account I still have no access to my mails. This is [censor] ridiculous. The help sections are absolutely useless, I can't login in from another location, I have enabled cookies, I have no spyware, I'm living in a dorm so how am i suppose to have a private wifi? And regarding using another supported browser, I have tried using two different browsers (Firefox and Xiaomi Browser) both are experiencing the same issue. SO none of the solution help a bit. This is the only email service I know of that has this kind of error happen. Very disappointing. Would have removed my account should it not be I have been using this for more than 8 years.

Yahoo! email interruption service

I have requested numerous times that yahoo stop sending me unwanted spam email. Each time I do so it stops for a week and then picks back up again. Your spam emails lock up my computer and cost me lost messages, frustration and cause me to try to unlock my computer by shutting down. I often lose multiple applications because my computer locks up and I am lucky if I can unlock in within 30 - 45 minutes. I am filing a complaint with the better business bureau in new york which apparently is the only office that accepts complaints against yahoo. If I would have known that yahoo was so restrictive, controlling, disgusting, I never would have chosen yahoo as my provider. What do I need to do to stop these invasive emails I receive from you other than paying the ridiculous cost of $34.99 a month? That has to be against the law to charge a customer such an insane amount of money to prevent advertisements or to frick up their computer because we do not want to bend to your ridiculous charges for advertisements that you throw upon your customers. I have never received a response from yahoo but totally require one today. Thank you in advance.
