Yahoo! incorrect search information

When doing a Yahoo search for "Purolator Nanaimo" two results come up.

The first:

A Purolator Courier; General Transport; 3607 Shenton Road, Nanaimo, [protected]

This information is incorrect. This depot closed prior to 2013. The [protected] phone number is our home phone number and we get calls at all times of day and night, often abusive. We want it to stop.

The second:

B Purolator; Reception and Management of mail; 2040 Boxwood Road, Nanaimo. This information is correct to the best of my knowledge - it is the location they moved into after Shenton.

Desired outcome: Remove our home phone number from the search result

Yahoo! email updates

The updated yahoo mail leaves a lot to be desired. Used to just type in where to file. Now you have to scroll down, find the file, click and then click apply. Width of the file you're looking for only wide enough for the beginning. Better know which one you need before you scroll. Many more, but I need to get back to work. Have someone else make changes, the last one did a lousy job.

Desired outcome: Update

Yahoo! Increased Spam & fees for reducing Spam

I recently noticed an exponential increase in spam in my inbox. This increase was followed by a notice which in effect reads, "Notice an increase spam in your inbox? You can reduce this spam by upgrading your account and paying for this service." This is outrageous.

Desired outcome: Reducing spam without added fees

Yahoo! Hiring practises

It has just been brought to my attention that Yahoo has made Omid Scobie the Royal Executive Editor. over the past 3 yrs Mr Scobie has proven himself to be one of the foremost purveyors of misinformation and downright lies with respect to the British Royal Family. The veracity of Yahoo News has always bee suspect. It's now officially garbage.

Yahoo! currently.att.yahoo.com email

I am constantly being disconnected from my email. There is never a reason given. No outages reported. I cannot access any website from the currently.att.yahoo.com home page search box. After shutting down the computer for the night and turning on the computer the next day, low and behold, the problem no longer present. I did nothing to correct the problem.

Desired outcome: All I want is to be notified the email or any attempt to open another website from the currently.att.yahoo.com home page.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

In todays world Artificial Intelligence supposedly made work easier for Yahoo and Social Medias but in my opinion has caused hate to increase instead of decreasing. It seems people can write as much fake news as they want and it's OK but to write the truth you are tagged as hate, against policy and a list of everything else but pea soup! For instance I...

Yahoo! Magical metal wind spinner sold by sionpong advertised by yahoo

Advertised as “Made in USA” AND 100% satisfaction guarantee return.

Shipped from China by a vendor who has given us the runaround for over a week. Directions state screw the posts together BUT there are no threads.

Vendor emails me and states to push the posts together BUT they are the same diameter. Vendor first offered 10% refund AND we could keep their cheap product. Increased to 15% then twenty then stating it will cost $20 to return it AND STILL haven’t provided an address.

We have filed a complaint with PayPal, the credit card issuer and now Yahoo. We will be filing complaints with the BBB AND State Attorney Generals in BOTH Ohio AND California AND because it crossed state lines the FTC.

Social media is next.

Why would Yahoo advertise misleading cheap products?

Desired outcome: Want a refund AND for Advertisers like Yahoo, Google, Bing, etc. Show some responsibility. Thanks in advance for your timely response.

Me too! Sold me a bra that had threads pulled out and size falsely advertised. The C cup is more like an A cup. Vendor first offered 10% refund AND we could keep their cheap product. Increased to 15% then twenty then stating it will cost $20 to return it $5 refund on $27 charge is not acceptable for something that does not fit!

Yahoo! Yahoo finance plus

I responded to an ad that was sent to my email regarding yahoo mail plus in which, for a monthly fee, they would eliminate all advertisements coming with my email.

Wow, that sounded great till I get my credit card bill. Agreed, I signed up for the yahoo mail plus for $5.00/month but not for yahoo finance plus for $31.50/month.

Finally, I reached the yahoo finance plus department and was told I signed up for that service. I argued the point, but he insisted I did. Not true! If I did, it was because of something associated with yahoo mail plus in which potential customers are fooled into thinking they are receiving a service not knowing there is another costly service associated. Seemingly, its like the used car salesman!

In any event, the yahoo associate absolutely refused to refund my money and the only proof given to me for signing up for the yahoo finance plus service was to go online and look it up. But, where do I go to look this up?

The federal trade commission should look into these bait-and-catch schemes!

Desired outcome: Refund the three-month service charges of $31.50 per month!!! This is absolutely stealing!!!

Yahoo! Yahoo news

Woke up today to find “ Willow Smith has a new tattoo .” Kendall and her Boyfriend…. Etc. Tell me Yahoo - who writes this NOT news? Why don’t you hire someone with. Intelligence. Too Liberal with appeasing Hollywood. Breaking it down for you, yahoo has NO genuine news. I doubt many care about these two . Try writing real news. May attract a more intelligent crowd. Could give two cents for how stupid Alec Baldwins daughter looks when stressed out! Really? Who writes this junk?

Desired outcome: Try true news , not gossip.

Yahoo! Email

Boy I hit file a complaint and think everything I typed is gone.

I have not had an email account with Yahoo for over 10 years but they keep charging me for an email account.

I am tired of this and each year before I was working so they told me they would fix, and at the end of the year when doing taxes I would catch again and they would tell me it was fixed.

However, I am newly retired, can't afford this and found again today they have changed by card 34.99 for an email account. They won't help me unless I put in my password. I don't have a PW as I don't have an email account.

I have the charge on my card on 3/29/21 found when doing taxes. I need help or at least tell me who to call. I am thinking possibly the attorney general as this is fraud for charging for services that I don't have.

Desired outcome: Want them to stop charging my card each year for an email I have not had for over 10 years.

Yahoo! No help/failed customer service; David Filo

2/7/2022) Can't set up an e-mail account for my niece as she does not have a Cell Phone. Yahoo has no option to Confirm the Account via e-mail; they only want a Cell Phone.

I have tried to contact Yahoo, but is all "make-believe Customer Service" from a computer. No human beings working at Yahoo in Customer Service.

Yahoo Customer Support is non-existent. If you are poor and can't afford a cell phone Yahoo tunrs you down for a Yahoo Account.

Yahoo discriminates against Poor People.

Desired outcome: e-mail account for my niece who does not have the money to buy a Cell Phone and Cell Phone Service.E-mail Accounts for all "poor" people who do not have a Cell Telephone.

Yahoo! Your news

Feb. 3 2022 I have had an email account with yahoo for almost 30 years, heck my password was 4 letters for years. I read a lot of the news tickers almost daily and I am sad to see the one sided bias news reporting against the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa. It shows me that your freedom of press and freedom of speech lacks integrity. I am thinking about cancelling my account.

Desired outcome: report the news unbias and show the truth

Yahoo! Not allowing people to comment on an article

Why is it that yahoo can put in an article with only their opinion. It seems to me when you stop allowing people to comment on the article you are suppressing free speech. If yahoo was only allowed to talk about what everyone else approves, they would be the first to complain about the 1st amendment. To use the following statement in place of letting people comment is a cheap excuse for not allowing free speech and for a news outlet, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

"Our goal is to create a safe and engaging place for users to connect over interests and passions. In order to improve our community experience, we are temporarily suspending article commenting."

Desired outcome: Bring back article commenting for your articles and stop being hypocrites.
