Hey there,

I applied for Yahoo Voice in may the 26 th it worked for only 1 day after that it has been disconnected and they wont say the reason plus it was for 2.49 and now they charged me 2.99..they wont re-activate the account or anything but they keep saying please wait for further investigation...this is a rip off

I Hello, everyone. I also was rescued from doing the documents alone. In the beginning I tried to translate all the documents on myself. It was a nightmare. I cannot understand a word about the national insurance in different countries or about the work permit. When I was searching for help in the Internet I found this yahoo messenger: docpartner and it was so easy. So guys don’t try this on your own. Gani from Philippines

I will also be changing to g-mail. I was told by yahoo to change my password (which I do frequently). I have changed it 15-20 times in the past year and a half. I am still getting the e-mails going out to all my contacts. Do you know how embarrassing it is to be sending a viagra ad to your boss when you are a pharmacist? (Lucky I wasn’t terminated.) My poor parents also suffered the same fate and it was about sex toys. Yahoo doesn’t care…. Urge everyone to change to different service. Obviously changing passwords hasn’t worked for others either…

I have had a personal domain with Yahoo for over 4 years for email and until today with no problems. For some reason it became flaky this morning and has basically stopped working. Four "chats" with support have yielded nothing other than to refer me to their "blog" which has nothing (other than some marketing drivel) about this problem. I suppose that some would be glad to have no problems with such a service for so many years when you stop getting possibly critical messages. I sure hope their new CEO hears about this. If they don't want me as a (small) customer say so and I'll find another provider.

I was looking for a place to moan and found this site (thanks for having it ) so go for it guys...spread this around...I would do more if I only knew where to do it.

I typed a really long letter on my Yahoo account.

Then I went to my address book real quick to make sure my address I was sending to was correct.

When I came back to the letter it was gone.

It was completely like deleted. I am so mad because the email took forever to write and I have no time to write it all over again.

I was just wondering if anyone knows why this happened or if this has happened to them?

I have attempted to make contact with Yahoo.com to ascertain WHY e-mails from my ISP will NOT be received by my correspondent WITH a Yahoo.com domain.

In the course of trying to locate a "touch point, " via the Internet, it became quickly apparent that Yahoo really does NOT WANT to deal with PEOPLE

I also bore the expense of several phone calls to Yahoo hq., but all were failures. Couldn't even get them to acknowledge their new CEO's existence.

Thus, is it to be considered that Yahoo is going the way of AOL, Henry J. Kaiser, Chrysler Corp., Crosley, American Motors ? ALL these have one thing in common-------FAILURE TO LISTEN TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC! Yahoo doesn't HAVE to listen; just doesn't have to exist, either.

I am a Yahoo customer in Rolling Meadows, IL. I also teach music, so when I was trying to find a DSL co., Yahoo's promise to provide unlimited free downloads of music for a year was the proverbial "too good to be true". What they didn't bother to tell me (and I had already told them I had a Mac), was that it's not compatible with a Mac. I have found it impossible to get ANY feedback regarding this problem - either in terms of reduced rates or an itunes gift card - SOMETHING. Instead, I have not even been able to speak to someone, email (their customer service window only allows for specific complaints), or even get an address to mail my complaint to. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM. The service has been ok, but they do NOT come through on their promos.

i cant access my yahoo account past 3 weeks, i have an important document inside, i cant open, it is very big problem for me, very very bad service, pls help me to access my yahoo account, my contact no is [protected], send me the details of alternative mail is vjkumar_in@rediffmail.com,

my yahoo account cant access is veejaikumaar@yahoo.com

I have been having problem logging in to my yahoomail account 'alaba_adeleke23@yahoo.com for some days now asking me where i met my spouse which i have forgotten because its been a while i registered the account..i will be very grateful if the issue can be addressed asap...thanks

When i changed to your suggested beautiful backgrounds, my whole mail service alters: disappeard 350 contacts (I've recored about 170) , the emails i send are not kept: the last one is from august 2013!
Some of my contacts do not receive my messages: when i phone some of them, that's their complaint too. And ssome times the "resume" works and others, don't.
I have been yahoo faithfull client for more than 8 years and i do not want to go elsewher so please, help me! I know you cant do it! Warm greetings. Alf

Yahoo!'s home page consistently shows Laura Bush and former President George Bush a few days prior to the November elections.

This is not news, it is not current and it is not relevant.

What about the story of the 115 lb young woman from MoveOn who was stomped on the head by a large male Rand Paul supporter?

What about Megan Whitman's low rating and being booed for continuing to do negative ads?

What about the Restore Sanity/Keep Fear Alive rally?

What about all the arrests and acts of violence on reporters covering the Republicans?

Please stop showing Laura Bush and former President "W" Bush.

to yahoo owner,
with no respect towards your business i want to explain you a fact about your cheap level business strategies being used to get online customers. I have been using yahoo mail from last 10 yrs and never hada complaint with the email system however i had plenty of your rivals to go with. by luck i was your business member, but you petty thieves have been using various computer software programmes to loot people and to misguide them in real lives as well plus your contribution towards society is nill and now negative in my eyes. why does the chat option appears on your main page and then computer software supports it. i wasted 1 hour of my precious life to you silly money blinded rats. it is highly unlikely that you are unaware of these things and may use the word virus for it. please dont else the virus will be a big trouble for your business.
it is my courtsey and way of saying thanks to back stabbers like...guesss/

regards.

Hello. I am yahoo messenger: querygt I am Indian. I used their services, too. I like them. They don’t get much money for the preparation and they do them fast and if they were a problem I can easily contact with tem. They made my CV, cover letter and everything and many other documents I don’t remember now. I was surprised because their services were very fast. I ask one Indian company about the same thing and they said that they didn’t do everything. They wanted to make some of the documents ready and the others to be prepared with someone else. I was so happy to find yahoo messenger: querygt . Good day to all.

dear yahoo,
my a/c is blocked and not opening
pls kindly do this

thanks & regards

Since they "upgraded" their mail program, yahoo has been buggy, and always crashes when I try to log out... sometimes it takes 5 or 6 tries to log off... Very annoying. Long load times are just plain frustrating too :P

On the up side... the spam filter is still working great!

Hello. I also used them to make my documents. They offered me so many things for a low price – documents for insurance, registration number, work permit and other things. They made my documents all right, so I was very glad.

I`m applying for a job abroad and recently I used the services of one company. I contacted them through yahoo-messenger: docservice1. They provided professional preparation for my documents at a reasonable price. MANY THANKS

kindly instruct to yahoo mail service to recover my
yahoo mail ID and password

My mother was stupid enough to fall for it.

I agree, why have Yahoo and Microsoft not done a blog about it ?! So far it's all individuals around the world posting about it and has been doing so since 2012 yet not a single post from Yahoo itself or Microsoft itself to advise it is a scam! Why else would people fall for it ? Our words mean nothing unless it comes from a reliable source. Yahoo and Microsoft better handle that s**t'n

My account was deleted for no apparent reason. I cannot access my emails, contacts nor documents. 9 years of information down the drain. This is absolutely ridiculous. I have done nothing wrong.

The documents people with yahoo messenger: docpartner prepared for me meet all the requirements and proved to be very valuable. My application was successful thanks to them.

I`m pleased with the services of yahoo messenger: querygt. I paid them for documents, which they prepared me for two days. They sent to my employer everything – Cv European format, cover letter with person work-force registration number and work permit. Many thanks

I`m pleased with yahoo messenger: docpartner . They prepared my documents for my new job. I was applying for job in Europe and I used their services. They offer you the best!

The company with yahoo messenger: querygt provided professional preparation for my documents when I was applying for job abroad

Hi everyone! This company has prepared all my documents, for the same thing one company asked me twice as big fee! At first I thought that I was ripped off but they kept their word. I recommend them to you too – yahoo messenger: querygt !

On 3rd May 2009, I paid thru my VISA card usd25.00 for using Yahoo Voice serivce.. The money is out from my Bank account but it is not credited into Yahoo Voice. It seems I am cheated by Yahoo..

my e-mail s_tamaskar@yahoo.com

My compalin is that my mail is 750000GBP & in web site there id 860000GBP i can not under stand this diffrence.
Kindly send to me detailmail.

also how i am collect this wining amount can give guide to me.
