Big Graphic change in Email
As a member of several graphic groups, we have always been able to see all graphics included in the email. Now all of a sudden you have completely changed it. As usual without a warning or explanation, you are making us work much harder and take extra steps!!! Why is it that it appears to be your goal to take all the good and popular things we've enjoyed for years away and make things so difficult..... WHY???
can't you return the way we showed our graphics just a week ago??If the issue still persists please give us a call at 1-800-827-6364 and one of our technician will assist.

mail
I do not like the new version of email started in July 2020. When I click read, the email comes up blank.I close it, click read again and it comes up with the contents. I then have to go to top of email and click "allow xxxx" to be able to open anything in that email. More steps and nothing is improved, please go back to the way it was.

Mark emails as being read within your file structure after you actually open them up and read them!
When I see an email in my Inbox, and move it to an email folder of some kind, then click on and open up the email to read it, and then back out - the email still stays bold, without the red "checkmark" on it, and there is NO indication that it has been read. The system always worked the way I just described, but changed today (7/15/20) and no longer works the way it has for years. Whenever one clicks on a "bolded" new email to read it, it should always change state and become unbolded so that one…

Please fix the copy/paste function - it seldom works and now has a copied bit of text stuck in the copy memory so it's messed up other sw!
In GOLD, the copy/paste function in Write does not work correctly. Usually it doesn't copy at all; now it is holding onto the last thing I managed to copy in AOL several days ago so that I cannot copy anything else from any application. I just keep getting that same bit of text from an AOL screen. I see others have complained about copy/paste, but you've closed the issue. But it is NOT fixed yet!! Please reopen!! Thanks

email out
Email is not working. They say customer support is available to paid subscribers 25/7. I call & get no answer. They say chat is not available due to corona. What about social distance requirements would be a problem with having a chat representative available. It's just an excuse for AOL's terrible service. Why am I paying $18/mo for AOL? Guess I'm stupid, but no more. Time to cancel after 35 years.
Wait times for reaching our call center may be longer than normal due to COVID-19 health and safety considerations for our employees. Thank you for your understanding and patience. If the issue still persists please give us a call at 1-800-827-6364 and one of our technician will assist

Is the constant sign-in on my iphone AOL app being checked out. Is this the reason when I am asked to get an email confirmation code or email confirmation response is not going through? I couldn't e-file because of the inability to receive a confirmation code.

Emails take forever to receive. I will have someone tell me they just sent me an email and it takes maybe an hour or more to get it.
Emails take forever to receive. I will have someone tell me they just sent me an email but I might not receive it for hours. And I'm not getting emails from people that are in my address book or replies to emails I have sent to them. WTF is up with AOL. Ever since net neutrality was blown out of the water, the service has deteriorated completely and we pay for it.
I’d like to have one of our Technical Support agents investigate this. Please call our AOL Desktop Gold team at 1-888-265-3733.

Mail and mailbox slow to load
Last update has broken the mailbox. Messages in folders are extremely laggy - slow to load, load out of order and then reload, deleting messages is slow - everything was working great and now it's a mess.
The spam folder has had an issue for awhile. Clicking on "this is not spam" causes the message to disappear completely. It does not get transferred to the inbox.
Let me put you in touch with one of our Technical Support agents to investigate this. Please call at 1-888-265-3733.
