AOL PROGRAMMERS ARE "TOO LAZY" TO INVESTIGATE ERRORS. AND JUST ASSUME THAT MEMBERS ARE TOO STUPID.TO USE THE PROGRAM.
THEY JUST GIVE YOU TUTORIAL & CALL CASE CLOSED WITHOUT INVESTIGATING.
THESE CANT BE AMERICAN PROGRAMMERS. IT HAS TO BE 3RD WORLD.

NEWS FLASH:
MOST AOL USERS HAVE BEEN AOL MEMEBERS BEFORE YOU GUYS WERE EVEN BORN. DONT INSULT OUR INTELLIGENCE. & TELL US THAT CLEANNING THE BROWSER IS REASON WHY VISITED URL'S ARE NOT STORED.
YOU "EDIT" IS FULL OF BUGS. FULL OF ERRORS. AOL GOLD IS PURE GARBAGE BUILT BY AMATURES WHO RIPPED OF VERIZON.

I am a long time AOL Customer, my husband and I pay $29.99 for AOL. I am very unhappy. My husband and all my friends no one to change to AOL Gold. Now, I have just learned that I cannot use my printer/scanner/fax with AOL Desktop Gold which I have been able to to use with AOL Blue.THIS IS WRONG. Help me as a loyal and long time customer. Why I have been punished? This is bad business most specially to those people who are paying.

When using the address book in the previous version of AOL, it was easy to enter the first letter of the name I was seeking and it would jump to those names beginning with that letter. It works that way in almost all other programs such as word processors, etc. Not in AOL GOLD.

How long do you project we have to wait to restore our 9.8.2 or greater version?

Gold is HORRIBLE! There is no background image for your desktop (I loved my Scottish flag and purply toolbar), you can't see anything about your other accounts in the 'switch screen name' bit whereas with REAL AOL you could see your other account names and how many emails were in them, it's just a totally TERRIBLE idea and execution. Where is the background image for my emails? I loved having stationary! I've been PAYING for my AOL account almost 15 years now, what did I and other AOL customers 'do' to you to deserve such trash in response?! This is just as bad an idea as when you took the boards to html format (you totally killed them off in just a year or two because of how bad the change was), and getting rid of Hometown pages & the server we saved everything on, lost to us 2008-9? Why do you ALWAYS manage to do the WRONG THING and generally go backwards in offerings and quality?!

Go back to the old AOL

Bring 9.8 back, scrap the the Gold, it is junk

I ask questions about non working items and how to items and never get a good or logical response. AOL Gold is really a POS.

AOL Gold is not usable as the previous AOL version. It seems as the current owner wants to destroy AOL. If this is the goals, it is being accomplished.

It seriously questions the capability of AOL and it reflects poorly on the leadership of AOL. It is total disrespect and no appreciation of its paying customers to release an AOL version of such a poor quality.

change the name to aol lead ****....that name fits perfectly. also fire the brainless toad that came up with this. you'll note I now have a new email address

Just keep 9.8 as it was, add your extra security if you must, and just rename it GOLD but changing all the program is going to drive us long time users away,, this **** thing don't work right, and threatening us with a 1-17 deadline for a program that dont work, is criminal,,
If this about charging 5 bucks for the service, then just charge it and let us choose 9.8 or Gold,,, but dont force us to buy a program that is incomplete and still being tested , by us users,,,,
I hope the government intervenes this is just not acceptable

I especially hate it when I'm typing an email and AOL slows to a crawl, takes several seconds to fill in the words I'm typing. Often it freezes completely. I often have to close it with Windows Task Manager and re-open it , only to have it freeze again. Sometimes it freezes the entire computer and my only recourse is to power the computer off.

Bring back the old AOL or I will use another provider.

It sucks that you can't "save" your "saved e-mail" folders anymore with GOLD, works fine in 9.8!

There are so many problems with this release of the product. So many things do not work the way that they used to work in 9.8.2.

Such poor quality control will contribute to the increased popularity of other mail systems! ... and the demise of AOL

I CANT STAND AOL GOLD

aol gold is a joke.i am paying for ****.

The best way too improve AOL is go back to old AOL NOT THE GOLD.
AOL GOLD ****............ Favorites is all messed up. Go back to old favorites. You can't add to toolbar, has no icons for it either. The biggest thing is IT IS VERY SLOW EVER SINCE I SWITCHED TO GOLD.
AOL go into my pc tried to help it. All AOL wants to do is sell you a package deal to try to fix it. Its all about money. I cleaned up my pc and defraged it also to get rid of junk files. It is still much slower than the old AOL. Why so you give us a broken program, that should have been corrected before you tried to make us take it. Now all you want to do is sell us more junk. I think you all slowed down our PC just like the cell phone people did. Hope you can sleep at night morons.

I am about ready to DUMP aol after 20 years. I very much dislike AOL GOLD

Give US a choice. Let US decide if WE want the new Gold or the PREVIOUS Ver. 9.8. MOST of us who have been with AOL for years HATE your new and 'improved" version....which it is NOT! Let US decide WHICH GUI....WE want...!!! GOLD is buggy and sluggish. Also, WHY must we constantly have to CLEAR footprints in order to make GOLD work sluggishly? This is the WORST version, EVER! I have been with AOL since Ver. 2.0. Started where AOL stated in Northern VA.
