    Gmail and Yahoo may have less ads then AOL. And they are free. The reason I pay for mail is so that I don't have ads. Find a less invasive way to display ads. Not in my mailbox. And... Give us 'news' and not the news where I have to scroll through 20 screens to find out if it really is news. I have had AOL for 20 years or more. I would like to see some better options with calendar and other features and functionality like in Outlook.

    PLEASE.......I've all but given up reading articles anymore as it's too difficult to to get past all the pop up ads and having to click continue just to read a small paragraph. What happened to writing just 1 page with the whole article??? In the older versions it was simpler and is it really necessary to have and use so many ads???

    your application is a deceiving program that directs you members to view unwanted advertising while trying to a view news stories.Very unethical while also charging for member for use of AOL Gold. You should be paying us for the same.

    I can no longer even try to read any of your stories with 4-5-6 ads popping up covering the content. Aren't advertisers smart enough to understand if people aren't watching they aren't seeing the obnoxious ads?

    Stop posting stories that require "next" to read. Get with the real world. Everything is faster...everything. If I am paying (which I am), you are discouraging me. I don't see the benefit.

    Posting repetitive, old stories, and more ads than news make me feel as if you think I can't see or read. I don't need all the interruptions. I literally stop reading things like Honest Paws stories and Google the results.
    You are slowly but surely losing a former anchor, reporter, and loyal fan of your service because you are not keeping up with what you used to give us for free; and/or taking the time to get some writers on your team! Pull stories I can read in minutes. Watch TikTok, Instagram, the use of Texting, television commercials, and You Tube. They have all caught on to the fact that people just want the facts. If I wanted a newspaper I would buy one.

    put the articles on one page and stop the NEXT PAGE in order to read the article.. I have stop reading all of the cause it takes to much time and is annoying to do. keep it simple

    I ordered two zen-Boosters and decided to try and return them within the 30 day guarantee period. They are not responsible to my request. They advertise that the boosters can be returned and they failed to mention in their ad that the booster is only a single band booster. As far as I am concerned they are a bunch of thieves. AOL is loosing credibility by letting them advertise.

    Too many google ads cannot read anything I open, I am a gold vip but may have to find another site to avoid all the overwhelming ridiculous ads.

    It's getting extremely frustrating to read a story on AOL...the constant shifting so that one lands on an advertisement is ridiculous!
    I have given up reading any stories offered by AOL.

    My experience is that the picture flashes -- it enlarges and contracts continuously. It is ******* the eyes. It is very annoying.

    The rotating, strobing icon for the Bingo Blitz ad at the top of the email screen is about all I can take. If it continues, I will cancel my account and just use gmail. Additionally, this pulsating visual could actually induce a seizure in someone with epilepsy. Therefore, you should discuss this with your risk management department.

    The AD on the AOL Desktop Gold above when opening the mail is always showing. The spinning wheel ad for the Bingo game and it cannot be removed. Please try to remove this ad.

  • MICHAEL PAPUC commented  ·   ·  Report

    The AD above the mail is always showing and hopefully it will be removed from there.
