  1. When are all these corrections going to be made?

    No offense intended, but my patience with aol gold has worn pretty thin. I saw where an aol person mentioned in their answer to a complaint that it is updated every two weeks. I am still having issues from when aol gold went live that are not fixed!?! The least aol can do is to allow us to use 9.6 until gold functions without a hitch.

    Let me put you in touch with a technician to see exactly what’s causing this. Please call our AOL Desktop Gold team at 1-888-265-3733. Our experts are available 24/7 by phone.

  11. Lighten up on customers having to prove who they are to you!

    Using a variety of online devices is NOT unusual and is NOT necessarily a security risk worthy of being challenged! At home I have a desktop AND a laptop. At work I use yet another computer. And my cell phone is yet another online device. So PLEASE don't make me run around to a second device just to prove to you that I'm ME!

  13. I can no longer send blind copy emails as I have done for 20 years to a closed group

    For 20 years I have sent blind copy emails to 300 or more people that request them. I did this in groups of less than 150. Now AOL won't permit me to send these emails

  15. Computer processor is working too hard

    My Computer processor is working too hard, making a lot of noise when ever signed on with AOL Gold. What is your software doing to my computer? The processor is constantly working as if it is computing some complex program or downloading / uploading a huge file/ Even if I am doing nothing. As soon as I sign off or shut down AOL Gold the noise goes away. Earlier versions of AOL did not cause the same symptoms. I am being exposed to harmful noise and my computer is being overworked. WHY?

  16. allow Land line is Voip to be on Desk Top Gold

    I have had the same land line phone number for many years and has been VoIP for most of that time. Your software change has now indicated that I can only register wireless phone numbers. This will be a real problem for many of your customers, including me. This needs to be fixed ! ! !
