    Hello Team, I just noticed this has been under review since January of last year. Has there been any additional consideration on bringing back AOL Instant Messenger? We look forward to hearing new updates on this topic. Thanks so much!

  • Adam Farley commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes I agree. Please bring back Instant Messenger and Chat Rooms. I would absolutely pay to have a subscription service of AOL again if this was brought back. There is a lot of people who miss those days and the nostalgia alone, people would certainly utilize it.

  • Alex Stephens commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please, I would love to see this come back. Even if it were a paid premium-type subscription, I think it would do very well. People have gone back to using messenger applications, so there's definitely a demand for that type of solution. I can assume that at least 3 generations would sign up day one if this came back into production.

    Yeah i wish they would bring it back and also the chatrooms.

  • Debbie Joseph commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes bring it back. AOL you want to charge us for what??? Half the services are gone.

    I received an email today, a "security message" supposedly from Chase Bank warning that my account would be closed if I did not click on the e-mail's button where I would enter in my account number, otherwise I would be unable to use my ATM card. for withdrawals or purchases.
    To me it seemed like a scam. so I checked the FROM and it was rusty@churchthatmatters.com"".
    Obviously an attempted scam. but when I called Chase Bank to report it I w was brushed off and they were not interested in taking any action against the sender.
    This seems like a need to report it to AOL so they can perhaps block this address, and perhaps follow up with law enforcement. I could forward the message easily.

    Anyway, I feel that someone should follow up because thbis type ofd scam needs to be stopped.
    Do your have an address that I can forward the scam attempt to?

    I hate the current format. Photos are small or chopped off. Very visually unappealing.

  • Jane Rhodes-williams commented  ·   ·  Report

    I miss sending short messages to other AOL members as well. It was one of the reasons we went with AOL in the first place, so my son would be able to IM with his buddies. Please bring it back, along with a bunch of features that were lost when AOL went Gold.

    Yes! Please bring back the old version of AOL ! I can not stand the new one and I am paying for 20 years for AOL, but you leave no choice to people to switch to OLD VERSION ! This is unacceptable !

    aol don't care they get paid for those pop ups they care less about their members

  • James Sullivan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Today many platforms like TIKTOK, Facebook has live chat rooms. Please bring back AOL Buddy box (Instant Messenger) on the AOL Desktop Gold. If you bring back the instant messenger on AOL Desktop i think lot of members will come back to AOL.
