  1. NOTHING WORKS!

    My default fonts don't hold; everything is SLOW; my mail "marked as unread" doesn't remain in new mail; links take forever to open and sometimes it takes two or three attempts. Nothing about GOLD is better than the old AOL and none of your suggested fixes work. And the techs don't have a clue and I am certainly not going to allow some stranger on the other side of the world have access to my computer. I've been a faithful AOL user since the '80's but I'm convinced AOL doesn't really care about customers. Look at all the complaints listed…

  2. When it is going to end?

    Oh, here we go. I log on only to find that the welcome screen does not come up but gives a very strange message with some weird thing I have never seen before. You have to click on the message box to get it to come through.

    The email is all screwed up. Nothing is where it is supposed to be.

    Then while trying to read an article the entire screen goes blank.

    When is this nonsense going to end? Can it get any worse? Shame on you! I will be done with you soon.

  4. Figure out a way to move old mail folders on my Dell laptop, circa 2014,2015,2016 to my new HP laptop with windows 10. There should be a way

    Have your engineers figure out a way to move my old AOL mail folders on my Dell laptoP circa 2014, 2015, 2016 to my new HP laptop with windows 10. I was told this is no longer possible but that is an unsatisfactory answer. When AOL upgrades it should permit older info to be included, otherwise the programmers are not doing a good job.

  15. It appears you went in and wiped out all the passwords for previous screen names!

    You went and wiped out all the passwords from the old AOL! Don't deny it, because there are passwords I used for years on the old AOL. I knew that when Verizon got their hands on AOL, they would ***** it up, and I was right. None of the old passwords work anymore. I'm so close to dumping this new AOL, because you have no idea what you're doing. You think you are making improvements when all your doing is screwing it up. You have taken all fun out of the old AOL, with your **** censorship! I pay for…
