    Your ads are becoming very tedious!!! Especially the ones at the top of the news page that CANNOT be closed!!! And they are popping up in the middle of articles selected to read in the browser and then, they DON'T stay at the top!!! They will block the article!!! This has happened before and then gone away but NOT Today!!! We have to put up with enough pop-ups (even when we block them - so what good is that options?)

    I try to read a story and a damned ad plows into the screen and flops around. So I quit reading. There is no enjoyment here at all these days. I don't know how you people can stand all the silliness. I sure as heck don't watch to know what the ads are hollering about, so It is doubtful that I buy their product unless it is something that I have been using for years.

    GET RID OF THE DAMMED ADS ON TOP OF THE LEAD PAGE! ANNOYING AS ****

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Article on Kidneys. Appeared to be informative. Each time you had to click on CONTINUE. Kept clicking on it and never got close to a answer. If you have something important for your customers, like this one, then why tease them with the COINTINUE. Just tell them I gave up! Paying customer since 1995.

    When AOL was free it was better! Please take it down a few notches with the ad's. There is more spam than content!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    As a paying customer, there are too many ads bombarding my usage of AOL in general. How can we reduce or eliminate all these ads?

    I AM A PAYING AOL SUBSCRIBER FOR OVER 15 YEARS. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF EXTREMELY ANNOYING FLASHING ADS ON MY EMAIL PAGES. PLEASE, STOP THEM!

  • Chuck Rogers commented  ·   ·  Report

    I do not need a bunch of ads coming up on the Welcome site each time I look at a new item.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I second this! AOL listens to nothing we complain about and does nothing about anything that is wrong.

  • MARGARET HULSE commented  ·   ·  Report

    I recently received notification that a topic of many complaints had been closed. Many people have complained about the stories posted that require the reader to keep hitting "next." The purpose seems to be getting more clicks for more pages of ads. We asked that it be stopped. Just publish a story in one piece. So that complaint, which was active for over a year, as been closed and it's obvious that AOL ignored the pleas and will continue the practice. So be it. I will continue NOT to click next. I'm tired of AOL not listening to those of us who PAY FOR THE SERVICE.

    TO MANY ADS, I thought paying customers did not have ads. the ads cover up the printed material on the pages, news items, etc.

    any way to get rid of the ads. I hate to seek other portals, been with AOL for the very beginning!

    when you sign on to AOL...you get the main screen that changes to the next news article...but to the right of the main screen you get the annoying live stream ad that you can,t get rid of. I've done the ad choice thing about a million times. Anyway to get rid of that.????

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    The use of Next to read you way along is horrible. It waste time, and worst at time you mean to click on Next but the screen is not yet filled in with ads completely so off you go to an ad you never wanted to go to. Then you have to X out of whatever ad popped up to get back to what you wanted to read. Terrible design, waste of time, and getting to the point I won't bother reading with the Next icon.

    This is why I rarely go to the AOL news. The constant ads that jump around are infuriating. There are many news sites that don't do this.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ads I am not interested in keep popping up flashing or in the way of reading an article.

  • cheryl commented  ·   ·  Report

    Is there some reason you cannot read a news article without having to dodge soooooooo many ads in the middle to actually be able to read it? Ridiculous to have to hit the continue button time and again and then dodge even more ads.

  • c1coop commented  ·   ·  Report

    It's still #1 even though it has been taken down!! Still an issue !! Still a hate issue!!! Give us a break!!
