  1. What's the point in removing features for paying customers?

    Still not having received photos and messages sent from not only my own phone but those of family members from nearly a month ago, I decided to message my phone from my aol mail yesterday. I got the message but my phone informed me that "this user does not support replies" so, for years as a free member I was able to receive messages from my family to my aol mail, but now that I am a paying member again I can't?

  11. What has happened to my e-mail? I am getting e-mails dating from 2014 in my inbox mixed in with todays. I have to sort through them.

    I am getting e-mails from 2014 in my new mail...all mixed in with today's e-mails. When I go to sent mail, I am getting e-mails all the way back to 2009 and cannot find the e-mails which I sent today. There is no rhyme or reason for how they are coming up as to the date...it skips all around. I am really disappointed in how the service has been since we have begun paying each month....many problems!

  12. Apparently

    My OLD AOL desktop program would automatically disconnect from the braodband if the computer was silent for 10 minutes. AOL Gold does NOT do this. If I forget to sign out, it comtinues to be connected and use my broadband minutes for hours and hours or even days and days. Very VERY very frustrating. We need this to re reinstated into the Gold desktop.

  14. Keep being prompted to buy an additional aol desktop gold subscription

    I keep being prompted to pay for a desktop gold account for one of my user names. Why must I pay for another account when I already have one? It goes on to tell me that I will have to retrieve my email from aol.com if I dont purchase another gold account. Isnt this double dipping?

  16. Once again tech gave me the wrong info

    See your reply below. This does not bring up AOL Gold on my hard drive. Please give me the correct info. I need to know where to find AOL Gold on my hard drive:

    (No Status) → Responded
    The AOL Desktop Gold is installed in a different location, then the old AOL Desktop. To access the AOL Desktop installation folder, first, open the Run box (press the Windows Key + R), then type the following path inside it and click OK: LOCALAPPDATA\AOLDesktop

  19. AOL Mail snafu

    On Friday 5/27/2018 I saved an email to my "On AOL folder" in a sub folder
    On Monday 5/28/2018 not only was my "On AOL" folder empty, my address book was gone, and all sent/saved mail after 2014.
    WTF is going on with AOL.
    The only reason to keep AOL, is so much data is archived on it.... if I can't retrieve that data, there isn't much point in remaining on AOL, now is there?
