Tell us how we can improve your AOL Desktop Gold experience.

← AOL Desktop Gold

Give us back the 9.8 features in Gold

Bring back desktop themes, stationery and emojis for mail, allow us to set up Favorites like we want them, make icons for toolbar available. Most of the time when I'm typing a e-mail, the type doesn't keep up with me and thus missing letters or words. Give us back all the features of 9.8 because Gold is seriously lacking most everything.

    Don't understand why I will have to pay monthly for a very flawed system. AOL Gold is overwhelmed by pop-up ads which interfere with my ability to read what I have selected. And you should seriously consider bringing back Instant Messages. I am really thinking of going to another free site.

    Bring back some of the features AOL dropped. Ex: the file upload progress bar and photos in email. Gold is slow and sometimes stop working.More thought and testing should have been done before the release of this software. It is definitely inferior to 9.8. I have used AOL since 1998 and I am not happy with the present build and I am considering using Gmail.

    AOL Desktop worked fine. AOL Gold is erratic, slow, and inconsistent. We were forced to make the change, now we are stuck with AOL Gold. Don't blame my computer...It works fine everywhere else. I can't even type an email without slow and erratic response, even right here.

    What was the thinking in this upgrade? Why did you not tell and prepare the public?

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I Shift + Del to permanently delete many emails. That feature is no longer available. It is now a 2-step process. Not good. Thank you. This version is similar in look and feel to the FREE version.

    Very unhappy at missing features from Gold. Missing Wallpaper, POSTCARDS, many extras for which I chose to pay a monthly charge to keep. Case # 04065203 (Cez), a very nice lady. I am also requesting a refund for application failure. Thank you..

    Just go back to AOL 9.8 and charge for that. It is a superior software to AOL Gold and most member would be happier. It is as if you guys are trying to sabotage AOL Gold, hard to believe any tech company can be this incompetent. Wake up.

    Go over every aspect of Gold and correct evertything that doesnt work

    I think Gold is becoming a joke like New Coke in the '80s or Edsel in the '50's, where the corporate parents needed to eventually pull the product while consumers were either laughing or crying at them. AOL needs to bring back a tried and true product like I enjoyed the past 21 years. Scrap Gold NOW!

    It is inappropriate and distracting to see advertisements when I'm reading my email. I pay for this Gold. How do I turn this off?

    Newer is not better. Kindly Give me back what I had. Not Gold. It is very poor, almost disgraceful.

    because AOL "RUST" is like going into a blind man's home and re-arranging all the furniture!!!! HE'S LEFT BRUISED WITH BROKEN BONES...... It's the same trying to navigate this piece of s**t you call "gold".

    Gold is a big disaster - I use AOL a lot but now you are trying to charge me for my secondary account which my wife uses to log on about once a week, sometimes less - why should I have to pay twice to log on either of my accounts from MY computers - also you used to have a feature in 9.8 that would make you invisible at sign on - so without that feature are we now all vulnerable

    Gold doesn't remind you that you have mail waiting to be sent.
    you really are going backwards

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I hate Gold!!! I can't believe you charge people for this version.

    You made a mistake with Gold. Cut your losses and OUR PAIN. Put us all back to 9.8, bring back the programming to the USA and let people who know what WE need fix it.

    Bring back the fonts and emoticons. The choice of pictures, sound,background and other holiday inserts was excellent. It is boring now. Also even though it is checked my history does not disappear after I sign off.

    Takes to long to send mail when photos are included. Previous version of AOL was much better.

  • Marti commented  ·   ·  Report

    I liked the ads on open email to be on the bottom of the email the way it was, it is annoying on the side and makes the email squished so I can't read it as easily. Thank you!!
