  1. Browser does not bring up pages-I cleared by browser history. Still no good.

    You told me to clear my browsing history which I did several times to no avail. I even signed off and then back on. I am still getting this on most URL's I try to access. I do not have this problem on other browsers. I do not have the time to call AOL and wait an hour only to get no help:

  3. AOL Gold members need a report on what's being fixed after all of these suggestions at this point.

    After all this time collecting feedback, AOL Gold admins should issue a report listing what features have been fixed to date and on what is definitely going to be fixed. It is this lack of communication that caused Gold to be release a program without the essential features of the previous program. If such a report has already been issued, I never received it in my email. At least tell us where to find it!

  7. SPAM FOLDER

    Often times things go directly to my SPAM folder which is fine. I usually just delete them and then they used to go to "my recently deleted" folder. I had a way to second guess myself in the old AOL. Now they just disappear from my Spam folder. I would like a second chance to delete them as in the old days. Please bring back that feature at least as an option.

  8. Add commas to addresses

    If I create a new group and paste a list of addresses in to it, I have to add commas manually to each address. This used to be done automatically.

  11. I hate GOLD!

    I am unable to organize my saved mail folders by the date I have given the folder! Needs to be MUCH more flexible. I would like to be able to save and organize my mail the way I wish. No boundaries.

  15. Return Sports as a topic. Your list now "*******." return to old wedssite!!

    Return Sports as a topic. Your list now "*****." The old system before the "gold" charge was much better. How can we effectively return to the old system of Topics, and service.

    I agree with previous comments. What a scam.

  17. My husband& I have the same problem: Not able to actually REPLY to emails w. images attached.Unable to "send" reply unless we delete images

    I cannot believe we are the only two people with this problem .We aren't using the same PCs (his is desktop, mine is laptop). You told me to contact Tech Support and then you closed the issue to comments. I'd like to see if others have the same problem. This is an AOL problem. My husband WAS able to reply w. attachments recently when he went to AOL thru Internet Explorer.

  19. Cannot return to New Mail tap once I'm already in an AOL what I call cloud stored file. Also when I open an AOL stored file which I created

    When I open an AOL file in mail a special tap should show, not the new tap. Allowing me to go from this tap to "New" should be easily accomplished by just clicking on the "New" tap.

  20. AOL Gold is Terrible need a new browser. inbox not necessary. cursor cannot open anything sometimes.my2018 emails disappear at times

    why do you need inbox , new and old mail. inbox is redundant. liked the old way. my cursor at times cannot open anything and then i have to reboot or restart my computer every time. my 2018 messages disappear at times and then reappear at another time. Lower my price. I am paying for a inferior product. Like the old browser that was replace with Gold
