  2. Mailbox won't display *new* mail

    Why do I even have a "new" mail folder on AOL Desktop Gold, if I can't view only new mail when I open my inbox? If this is a new FEATURE, I don't like it! I'm paying for this service, and expect it to work at least as well as the mobile app!!
    note: before you suggest I refresh, open/close/exit and reload AOL, been there, done that!

  6. PLEASE PUT YOUR PAYING CUSTOMERS FIRST FOR ONCE (AFTER YOUR 35 YRS ONLINE)

    Hello. I've been with AOL SINCE 2003. Yes, over -17 years- now. Why do I put up with all the service issues, advertisements, SPAM, lost benefits, and wasted time and money?? Because AOL holds all my folders ******* that I've created since 2003 that contain many emails I want and need to save.
    I don't need to write about all the individual issues and frustrations because many of your other customers below have already done that well. I see many of the posts have not even been responded to with a simple or short comment! Acknowledgement and communication can go…

  9. Screen doesn't return to home (Welcome) page after internet search page is closed.

    What the f....?? I have to reopen the "Welcome" page after using the "Search" bar. The "Welcome" page then returns to the beginning (page - 1), not the page that I left (i.e. page 40). So now I need to scroll thru all the pages to get back to where I left off. ****** me off. I'd rather use Internet Explorer or other solution, and cancel AOL.

  13. AOL? Truly amazing they can get away with fraud for so long.

    Where are the courts? Where is Ralph Nader when we need him? Maybe if all paying AOL Gold customers contacted their local ABC News "7 on Your Side" consumer advocate reps, maybe AOL would at least be globally shamed into not being such obvious, fraudulent crooks and deliver an honest product. Really tragic and malfeasant.
    I predict AOL will eventually have their ***** nailed to the wall.

  14. Fraudulent advertisers

    On February 23, 2020, I ordered and used my ATM card to purchase a top from NINACLOAK.Com who continues to show the same attractive tops as being in stock. My top has never been sent. In searching for their web site there are multiple links to reveal this is a scam advertiser. My bank is doing an investigation. I used their posted phone number and was placed on hold for over an hour with no response. These people are stealing the order payments from all who order their advertised tops. Please refuse their advertising.

  16. Automatic address lookup

    When addressing a message, why all of a sudden do I get the address plus the contact name. Make it work like it did before, I don't need to know the person's name, i already know that. Just clutters up the works.

  17. "BLOCK EMAIL" made simple + easy!

    PLEASE, include a "BLOCK EMAIL" option in the drop down window when an email is clicked on. Having to type in the address(es) in the current block email system is VERY tedious and they change their addresses hourly. I AM SICK-AND-TIRED of all these, "I want to have *** w/ you." emails, etc. ****! Make it easy!

    I was informed that I need to use this feedback app for a senior tech to respond to my many issues that could not be resolved by the techs on duty.
