  1. AOL Mail in "Paid-for Desktop GOLD"

    Too **** slow in getting emails. Recommend everyone use the backup aol email and cancel Gold until aol fixes this!

  2. Let us customize our opening page

    The opening page of Google lets you "hide a story." This lets them know what people are and are not interested in. I'd love to see AOL do the same thing. AOL is quite slanted in their choice of stories and their "news" (I use that term loosely) are most often of no interest to me. I really wish there was a way to customize the opening screen.

    I have sent repeated bug reports and still have no resolution. I have contact support and they keep advising to send a bug report. Why isn't support helping their aol PAYING customers???

    I can't switch between new, old and sent mail tabs in aol gold desktop software without very long delays. Most of the time it just freezes. Secondly, all of my sent mail shows TO: before the email address and therefore I can't sort my mail. When is AOL going to respond and fix my issues.

  4. quickfind

    Quickfind - due to quickfind starting to search before I finish entering the parameter, it ties up the system and makes it difficult to completely enter the criteria. For example, I need to look for the word "insite" in my mail, and it gets stuck at "in", searching through mail for minutes before it finally lets me enter additional letters for the word. Additionally, because it is stuck, I cannot make corrections if I need to change the criteria or correct a misspelling until the search finally completes enough to make the cursor available to continue typing.

  9. Annie Cloth should not advertise with you!

    I'm very concerned about a vendor I learned about while on AOL Gold, called "Annie Cloth" because they are virtually unwilling to take returns and only willing to give me back 15 percent of what I paid as recompense for their merchandise that is the wrong size. Read about them on PissedConsumer.com and learn how dissatisfied customers are. If I continue to see Annie Cloth on AOL, I will know I cannot trust your advertisers. Thanks.

  12. AOL Gold? Are you kidding? If AT&T, PG&E, Dish, Direct, Cox or Disney acted like AOL, they'd be sued out of business.

    Amazing AOL can actually get away with this for sooo long and still be in business. Knowingly charging customers for a defective product, obviously defective product on a global scale is basically fraud. There are in fact at least two Class-Action laws suits brought against AOL, 7 against parent company Oath and 10 + against Verizon that I know of, now pending. AOL, will, of course, just pay them off without admitting any wrongdoing, as they always do.

  13. blocking emails from "host" server

    would be helpful if you could get a program written to block email that are coming with the designated server as "host" - i don't have any of my email contacts coming from "host" = they are simply coming from commercial entities that i do not need in my emails

  14. Get rid of all the upgrades you have made in the 4 months!!!

    In the last 4 months I have;
    1. Stopped being able to save mail with out opening.
    2. Stopped being able to open links from my face book without having to click on another link to to approve the link.
    3. Copy and paste pictures into emails. Pictures I paste do not come through on the other end and 50 % of the pictures pasted into mail to be sent later disappears when the mail is reopened.

    4. Mail in my send later file is sent with the date it was saved no the date it was sent.
    Please fix…

  17. passwords

    This is serious. Settings, or primarily PASSWORDS, should be
    under Password and or 2 factor authentication. This is really bad leaving passwords open with No Security. I am just realizing this, WOW. Who ever heard of leaving PASSWORDS OPEN with no security. Please put additional security in regarding PASSWORDS.

  18. Give us back the 9.8 features in Gold

    Bring back desktop themes, stationery and emojis for mail, allow us to set up Favorites like we want them, make icons for toolbar available. Most of the time when I'm typing a e-mail, the type doesn't keep up with me and thus missing letters or words. Give us back all the features of 9.8 because Gold is seriously lacking most everything.

    I have been a loyal aol user for > 25 years when everyone has gone to gmail. You recently ruined the system for me by not allowing me to alphabetize the recipients of my emails anymore whereas I can still do so by date, by subject and by sender, I want the ability to arrange by recipient as well -- there is no reason at all to remove this function arbitrarily. About 5 years ago you revamped the whole system which messed me up the first time. This time will be fatal for me. Please return this email function to…
