AOL

Long ago...months... years ? AOL band my comments. I'd like to be reinstated . Please guide me thru the process and I'll give it a go. Thanks ! I didn't record my ban date but it seems like a year or 2 or 3.

I've turned to Aol, just to get heads up on relevant news, but it has increasingly become biased news coverage, but more so, have of the click-bait is revenue sources for AOL. Unless you/yahoo focus on unbiased news, and more of it, and start correctly labeling sites mainly to deluge clickers with ads, I will actively give such reviews on the internet. I don't face the same problem anywhere else. Come clean, at the very least.

Horrible and mean customer service!

Despues que ellos confirmaron que efectivamente yo era el dueño de la cuenta, me dijeron que si yo queria recuperarla tenia que hacerles un pago mensual para supuestamente tener mas seguridad en mi cuenta, cuando en primer lugar mi cuenta fue hackeada gracias a que ellos no tienen seguridad ni protocolos para que alguien que no sea el dueño de la cuenta, no tenga acceso a las cuentas de sus clientes o cambiar las contraseñas en vez de sencillamente cambiar mi numero de telefono. Yo uso ese emai to work and I would also lose all the data I have in my email of many years.

Account holder since 1995. Was recently hacked and the account was closed.

All customer service is in India. Not a problem. But they told me they can't open the account again, because I didn't provide "enough information." When asked what information I failed to provide, was told they are not authorized to tell me that. I'd have to write to AOL's legal department.

The woman was very rude and insisted there was nothing AOL could do.

F*ck off Verizon...or whoever owns you this week. You've cost me hours of lost time and thousands of email contacts LOST.

I'm disgusted with your political comments! I'm not on this site for ANY of your biased views!

Can't log to comments in after 25 years as an aol customer. I would dislike changing but I will move if access is not restored, I will be forced to move to the ugly breitbart.

Someone hacked into my email and am unable to get any resolution from the company. The account was created over 15 years ago with a landline that I have since stopped using many years ago. I have made at least 4 calls to aol with no resolution or even care what so ever from their staff. They use a security of the name on the account which obviously was changed but they could care less again and just can't seem to grasp the concept into this issue.

Have had a verizon.net email account for moer than 25 years and went thru the iterations of aol and yahoo and now experiencing their issues with Microsoft outlook. It will not connect and they want to be paid to make it work ($39.00 Per month). Their support is in the Philippines and English is somewhat of an issue. What a way to exist in the US. Can anyone suggest a solution short of doing away with AOL and their email. It works fine with Google gmailify if you know the double secret work around.

AOL Customer Support Team Number: 1800.827.6364

Description: Called the AOL Customer Support Team number regarding emails not sending. The representative Ken kept ignoring questions and request. Had to repeat request and statements a three plus times for Ken to understand. Therefore, I asked for a supervisor ( three plus times) but had to wait on hold for 50+mins for a supervisor named Ella/ Eleazar. This supervisor also ignored my questions and could not assist. Eleazar response to my question asking why the 50min hold for a supervisor was "What is your concern". I asked for Eleazar manager name and was told "the information is internal only". Supervisor Eleazar also advised "I respect whatever". AOL is horrible and there's no need to continue to use their service.

Desirable resolution: AOL should send our emails in a timely manner. The Outbox folder is only viewable on the AOL app but not the desktop online version? This make no sense as to why AOL is not sending emails in 2021. The wait time for a supervisor should be less than ten mins. Every response from Ken was "I don't know". How do you not know how many supervisors that work for your department?

My AOL mail account was terminated 12/30/2021 without notice. I called their 800 customer service number which could only escalate the issue. The escalation department called me back and said there was nothing they could do because they could not adequately verify that I am the account holder. Apparently with AOL the is no solution.

AOL changed and locked me out of the account abruptly September 16, 2021. This was not a change on my end - as I had not (in years) attempted to login to my aol account directly, everything is forwarded to gmail. Now, fast forward after they have locked my account - the password I have they are saying is incorrect (it isn't as I write the passwords down) and it will not allow a reset or sending to a backup email. Called AOL support the free version - and was still transferred to the paid version service. They would not reset a password unless I sign up for a $10 subscription plan. How does a company with so much history end up treating customers this way that have had AOL accounts since its inception. How after all of this time is the only way to re-gain access to my account through paying $10 - what the heck, all support and appreciation for this platform ... lost. Horrible customer service, not just the wait time, and complete ineptitude - just horrible business practice. Reset customers password, lock the account so it can't be recovered, then charge to reset password. Just wow.

I was censored without notice. No warning or anything but you manage to charge me each month. Reinstate me.

find attached a copy of a blackmail email from AOL.COM. Do something about this user!

to me

I have been monitoring you for years, you never stop astounding me by your love for intimate delight.
U are a real superman of sexual stimulation)
You don't look like an ugly person who is unable to find a girl, but still you do abhorrent stuff.
I bet, there are a lot of similar men like you, but come on, it is not for me to blame humans for their private life.
I'm confident this is about ur hand and u really love it so much.
When u go about something like this, you have to stick up ur web camera.
So that you understand the magnitude of the problem, I have copied the contacts from ur electronic-mail and I'll send ur video to ur loved ones.
In case you neglect me, within 88 hours ur homemade video will be distributed on the net.
1052 usd, LTC Ld7PqUyrSmwfD3dkySYKVAbXW2osVptcbc is a sensible proposal in this situation, considering ur stalemate. 48 h will be more than sufficient to address my requisitions.

Today at around 0740, I posted a factual statement and questioned the moderator twice on what community guideline that I violated. I was stationed in Washington DC and I can assure the Moderator that the speaker of the house is responsible for the security of the entire Capitol complex.

Also Fox News and Trump, JR are not in the Presidential chain of command.

Jan 6 so called rioters are being denied due process and Discovery of Government Informants in the crowd which be disclosed 45 days before trail which is in the spring of 22.

I come from a security background and never open unsolicited emails. I mark all of them as spam and delete. However, I am being overwhelmed by spam and phishing attempts as well as commercial email from Southeast Asia. Per AOL's instructions, I mark each email as spam and delete it. I also report it to a site called [protected]@aol.com. I have attempted to contact AOL [protected]) only to be asked to pay for tech support.

My screen name is [protected]@aol.com about a month ago my posts on AOL stories are all blocked. WHY? I did not violate AOL guidelines. I would like to know why I was suspended from posting.

Recently every time a post of comment AOl rejects what I am posting. For example The article "Hillary Clinton predicts Trump running again in 2024, calling it a ‘make-or-break point'

My comment was : I would not support Clinton for any government office and this was rejected by AOL

Yesterday there was a article about a soccer player flooring a fan that ran on the field and the game had to be stopped. The REF give her a yellow card.

My comment was :I would take a yellow card for that. Some people must have there 15 mins of fame. It messes up the game waiting for security to clear them off the field

Dear sirs

Having been with AOL since the 90s, all of a sudden, I cannot seem to post a comment that stays on 'AOL Today'. Sometimes it is visible, but it rather appears that nobody else can. I can select the REPLY Box, type a reply and it appears. Later on, it disappears. Also, I do not receive any 'Thumbs up' or 'Thumbs down' Feedback from my posts.

I have requested that you help me fix this issue many times, and so far your response has been totally unsatisfactory. Surely this must be a quick fix?

When I see my name next to a Post...when the actually stay there, I get a Circle and a small green dot in it. Why is this. If you hover over another poster's name, it comes up with how many posts they have made. With me, nothing at all appears. Please will you fix this for me for once and for all.

Thankyou

After 26 years as one of the Original AOL account Holders, and a US small business owner, I am finding I am completely unable to post any type response or reply on any AOL news articles. ONLY allowed to post a thumbs-up or thumbs-down to them.

We have called several times to no avail, after long wait times to get someone, and always told there is nothing wrong with my account. Initially it started with my Main Screename of 26 years and noticed this occurring. The Business name was working fine. Now as of last couple weeks, even the Business Screenname posts are rejected immediately.

Anytime I try to post even a single letter, within say 10 seconds I get a "rejected" warning and my post goes shaded?

What is going on here with AOL? This is NOT right.

They seem to be a contradiction to their monicker "American Online" after all these years, and now becoming like Other online services who seem to be trying to control and censor anyone who is not for a socialist/communist agenda for the United States.

Aol discriminates against low income handicapped seniors who only one phone and it is a land line — [protected]. I do not have a cell phone! [protected]@aol.com
please advise-I am 76 years old! almost blind is why I use all caps

JUST RECEIVED THIS MESSAGE FROM AOL!

Hello,

My name is Greg and I work on the AOL Concierge team, a small internal AOL support team that represents the highest available level of AOL Customer Care. I am reaching out to you regarding a case we received where you state you would like to cancel paid services. I would like to thank you for reaching out and allowing us to review your concern.

After reviewing your request I see the 2 paid services (SafeCentral and System Mechanic) have both been cancelled so you will no longer be billed for those services. When you contact our support, before any adjustments are made to the account, we must verify ownership. To do that, we need to use the information you provided on the account. If you are unable to verify ownership with a smartphone, I recommend using an alternate email address we can send our verification code to.

If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact me back.

Regards,
Greg
AOL Concierge Team
