Yahoo!
reviews and complaints

Hey I just wanted to say that for 4 days now I have been trying to log in with my yahoo account. I know the password but yahoo doesn't let me log in. The only thing that happens is that were you type the password, it turns yellow .please help me, I need my account back as soon as possible . I forgot my Snapchat password and the only way to get it hack is through my yahoo account .

in the news there is a lot of political correctness towards Muslims but no political rightness. The news articles seem in favor and support Muslims. I was reading an article where there was an anti -Muslim protest in Peel and it was frowned upon that this protest should occur. I don't hear to much about anti- Christian or anti western civilization protests. No the Muslims don't demonstrate peacefully that they hate us they act out there rage in violence.

I'm getting very tired of making up new passwords because one of my devices won't recognize my new password.
I write my passwords down in a notebook. I enter what I wrote down (as I made the new password.) Then I have to log in to my devices with the new password but it won't recognize the new password.
This makes me want to delete my Yahoo account. The problem is, it is my primary account. I hope you can help me log into my account without having to constantly change my password.

What do you mean?! Select a category.
Where is the Yahoo Email category?
Company Website? Individual!
Getting madder and more frustrated by the second!

I am currently locked out of my account due to the service that yahoo has provided for passwords which is account key and that is hooked up to my cell phone number which is not in service so due to that fact there isn't any other way that I will be able to log in to my account [protected]@yahoo.com please get back to me at [protected]@gmail.com.

The "be proud of who you are" and multi color logo is something I do not want to see every time I open a web browser. To be reminded of what I consider a poor choice in life, a negative outcome, a curse to those afflicted. See it how you may - to me it's negative and should not be advertised on first page of the Yahoo web browser every day. PS. Its offensive that that group took the notion of rainbow colors hostage and made it their own. Puke on them.

To whom it may concern.

Please be informed that since today morning dated 24/06/17 @ around 0800 someone is trying to sign in into my email acc. which is : [protected]@ymail.com.

I would like a feedback at soonest on this scam who is trying repeatedly to do so.Also I do have a notification alert on my phone which shows if someone had sign in into my email account.

Please respond to my complain at soonest.

Thank you.

Regards,
Yoganathan

I can't believe you would put the story entitled "Comic's Trump Bit Is Hard To Watch Now, " as the number one story on your homepage. I clicked on it and was immediately confronted by profanity and offensive content. The NetFlix promo contains the F word and jokes about masturbating. Do you realize that people of all ages might click on the so called story? I wish Yahoo had more class than to include R rated content on the featured "story" on the homepage.

Thank you,

Annoyed Customer

I have copied and pasted below the email message I received today, Wednesday, June 21, 2017.
After you read it, please let me know how am I or any Yahoo! Mail user can tell if this is a legitimate email and statement from Yahoo! Mail.
As we Yahoo! Mail users, do not have Yahoo! Mail's policies, and this may in fact be a legitimate policy of Yahoo! Mail.
I and I am sure any other Yahoo! Mail user, do not want to open up what we may believe to be a legitimate email from Yahoo! Mail, that in fact turns out to be a virus email, that then infects our computer/computer system with a virus.
I would have addressed this directly with Yahoo! Mail or Yahoo, but they wish to remain unreachable via email and phone.
Yahoo! Mail's help/answer section does not for most issues I have with Yahoo! Mail, including this issue, give or supply the answer/solution to the issue/matter. Nor does Yahoo! Mail's help/answer section allow us upon not finding the answer to our issue/matter, to send an email on to Yahoo! Mail for Yahoo! Mail to read and respond back to us with an "official" Yahoo! Mail answer.
Please send any answer to the above issue I have described, including the email I received that I have copied and pasted below, to my Yahoo! Mail email address: [protected]@yahoo.com
Thank you.

Dear Yahoo,

I was looking at your new user page featuring and article about Bill Cosby's accuser the evening of June 20th about 9:10PM. All three of the comments/tweets featured below the picture headline were some version of "This woman is ugly and Bill Cosby was crazy to sexually assault her". This isn't an article about a public figure it's about a woman who is (probably) a victim of a crime and otherwise a private citizen. You are subjecting her to broad public humiliation by featuring these comments.

I can understand that you can't screen all your comments, but by choosing to place certain comments on your front page you are aiding and abetting your troll friends. When its on the homepage and above the fold, its no longer free speech, its your speech.

Put a filter on the comments you feature. There are only 3 at a time. I think you can handle that.

For the past few weeks yahoo's site has been crashing on my phone. "Tab has crashed reload". It appears to be all the ads you are forcing through the mobile website. This happens multiple times during the same search. No other sites give me this error. Yahoo Get your act together or your future is doomed. Been a user for 18 years and I have no problem switching due to this issue. I beg you to figure out this issue and fix it.

I absolutely hate the new Yahoo home page that I just started getting on my iPhone. The previous home page where I could scroll across or scroll down was so much better. I have been using the Yahoo home page for as long as I can remember and this new screen is horrible. I may have to find a better home page to use. Go back to that screen or give us a way to select the one we want.

https://uk.news.yahoo.com/photos/carnage-as-explosion-blasts-through-home-while-woman-was-walking-dogs-1428401814-slideshow/

These photographs were taken by trespass into my garden. They are invasion of my privacy. The contents of my home could only be seen from private property.
I have complained to the news agency that took the photographs and they told me they would remove all the photographs from the web.
I would like to know how much Yahoo paid for the photographs as I entitled to the gains made by the agency by illegal activities

Here they are!

Hi Dennie,

Your account is currently not enabled to sign in from apps, that do not meet modern security standards (ex. Older versions of mail and calendar apps such as Outlook). As a result, we prevented a sign in to your Yahoo account (dennieball).

Date and Time: Fri, Jun 16, 2017 10:12 AM EDT
Location: United States (IP Address: 24.47.168.6)

We strongly recommend that you switch to Yahoo's apps such as Yahoo Mail on desktop and mobile and remove your account from all other less secure apps.

If you still want to use an app that uses less secure sign in, go to https://login.yahoo.com/account/security#other-apps and turn on "Allow apps that use less secure sign in". This is not recommended and may leave your account more vulnerable to compromise. To learn more, please visit our help page: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/account/SLN27791.html

Yahoo blocked this sign in attempt, but if it looks suspicious to you or it’s not from an application that you’re using, go to https://login.yahoo.com/account/change-password and change the password for your account.

You are receiving this notification because [protected]@optonline.net is listed as a recovery email for dennieball.

Sincerely,
Yahoo

My account has been hacked this week and on my account page a fraudulent AT&T page appears for me to change my password. I do not have AT&T service of any kind. I was locked out of the account for a few days and more extensive branding of AT&T appeared on my email account page. I've had this yahoo email address for 20 years and it has much vital information.

I've always signed into my account through the Yahoo page, changed my password through Yahoo, but now I have this bogus AT&T page showing for password change.

I've repeatedly reached out to Yahoo customer care sections to tell them this and they keep telling me it's a AT&T account even though I've told them I don't have AT&T service and that's its a fraudulent AT&T page that is trying to create a new password so it can steal that information and lock me out of the account. I've read on Google where this has happened to other users. Yet, Yahoo customer refuses to help me and just refers to get help from my alleged provider AT&T, which I do not have service with! Yahoo customer service is worthless and sucks! I'm being forced to abandon a 20-year-old email account because of Yahoo customer service.

I Received this mail from Yahoo. Scammers trying to get my information?
Please advise.

I have been emailing for a week, trying to get into an old account with an extremely important email in it. I went through the sign-in helper and multiple forums of frequently asked questions everyday since last wednesday for 3+ hours. All because the only recovery method for my account is a number that was changed. I know that I should have looked into securing my account more as I've been told multiple times over the past few days however, there were not the same luxurious security options 6+ years ago. Even then I specifically remember setting up security questions that are not an option available to me through the sign-in helper. This email is very important to me and I would like if somehow I can be directed as to how to get back into it, thank you.
