It is annoying & most inefficient, when a customer puts in RIGHT username & password, ONLY to have you deny it. What's THAT all about?
You need to explain WHY you choose to reject correct user/pw when put in and force user to CHANGE their password. Absurd & most inefficient on your part. Thanks for holding us "victims" of your incorrectness.

Whatever this new version is it's terrible
Put back the old version of email. I didn't ask for any updates or changes. I don't want to hit page numbers to read emails from yesterday. I want to scroll through all my emails like I always did until today for some reason. Please put email back or I may have to leave AOL.
Hi there. You might be using the basic version of AOL Mail. Here's how to switch back to the standard version: https://help.aol.com/articles/switch-between-regular-and-basic-aol-mail

Delete my account. I am dead. I will NOT pay for anymore service. *@aol.com
My wife died in Dec., 2021. I have been trying to delete her account. You are making that unnecessarily difficult. Delete the account of *@aol.com immediately. I will NOT be paying anymore for this "service".
*We're very sorry for your loss.

Mail
Support, how can I retreive all my messages for my account since I have not logged into in a long time? Thanks.
Hi. If an account is unused or dormant for 12 months, it is deactivated and its emails are deleted, more info here: https://help.aol.com/articles/reasons-aol-deactivates-or-deletes-an-account
Once emails are being purged during the inactivity period of the account, they are deleted from the servers as well. While your recent login reactivated your account, the data deleted is not recoverable.

fix the header boxes on the main page
First, please the header boxes on the main page, they spin past in a blur and I can't make heads nor tails of them. Also, please fix the main page so it remembers my location, it always defaults to NY and I do not live in NY. THANK YOU!
When you see incorrect local information (such as the news or weather for a different location) on your Welcome Screen, you may want to verify your location is correct. This can be done by making sure your correct City, State is in the top left of your Welcome Screen.
If it is not, please click “Update Your Location” under Local News and Weather, enter your Zip Code and press Save.
If this does not work, please clear your cache, cookies, and history.
Here is an article for instructions: http://aol.it/1KTJUg6
Then try adding in your Zip Code again. -
Fix the automated message PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE improve your outgoing automated message. They asked for the first 4 letters of my email address which I had to yell into the phone 5x before I was connected.

Is it possible for you to change, update or just plain fix the automated message?

AOL Email Incredibly Slow
AOL email has been incredibly slow for several weeks. Have to wait a long time for it to respond to alphabetical letters typed, opening an email, moving, closing, deleting emails and all other activities. It has become unacceptable. Tried signing out, closing and reopening aol but nothing helps.
Hi there,
Many times latency is caused by an unsupported or outdated browser. I would suggest checking your current web browser for an update.

delay in signing on.
When signing on after entering password geo.yahoo takes on average 30 seconds before continuing. Excess amount of time?
Hi there,
In most cases latency normally occurs when software is out of date. We do recommend. trying another web browser such as Chrome or Firefox.

You could help us dummies a lot by placing a 'back button' arrow yourself
Hi, older people like me often make the mistake to hit the back button of the browser while reading our mail.. which was not the intent. You anticipated on this because we get the Oh-No! message with a Go back option whenever we do (which is often!) You could help us dummies a lot by placing a 'back button' arrow yourself on the darker grey bar just above the email. This bar is currently only used as a link to AOL start page and not in use otherwise like the top 'light grey' bar. It would even be possible to…
Hi there,
