  3. As Usual AOL creates two problems when there is only one.

    I am a paying member so AOL offers live help. But one has to wait forever for the live help, so in addition to seeking a solution AOL frustrates the user by being forever creaky in its response.

    Suggestion #1. Since live help is wasteful of the users time, why not provide a link for email directly on the "seeking help" page.

    Suggestion #2. Why I'm writing this in the first place. I am getting increasing numbers of SPAM with the address that starts out UnknownSender@.... The remainder of the address varies. Is there some way I can automatically…

  4. Increase tech knowledge/level for Help Desk

    There ought to be a way for Tech Assistant on a call to refer a problem to a certified webmaster. We experienced a problem whereby the email auto-complete for an address would ONLY print BOTH the Contact Name and the Email address. This made it impossible to send certain group messages when I only wanted folks to see email addresses, not names. The telephone tech assistant did all she could AND received NO HELP from whoever the Level One person was. You really need to enable a referral (for a subsequent call, if necessary) so that some resolution can be…

  7. You sent out messages that might as well have been in a foreign language. I guess I will have to see what happens at the end of October.

    We're not all Computer savy. I can drive my car, but I can't begin to understand how to change oil, sparkplugs, brake fluid, etc. Think about it! I've stayed with AOL since the 90's, and have even paid for access all these years, even though I've been told by others I'm wasting my money. I've paid thinking you would take care of changes etc.

  11. Do you ever think it would be possible to actually get to a website when searching instead of going page to page to page.

    Open up a particular website and you have 10 other site possibilities show up on the next page. Open one of those and your have more websites. Open one of those and you have more. You just never get to any usable website. You could easily spend an hour or more opening website after website that just yields more pages of websites.
    It is truly an exhausting experience trying to get anywhere.

  12. Allow the "From" button work to alphabetize emails

    I was always able to keep my emails down to a manageable number because it was easy to delete emails once they are alphabetized. Now the From button does nothing.

  15. You can improve many peoples' experience by not having ads cover about 1/3 of the content of the headline articles. It's beyond irritating

    When I choose to read a headline article would like to read the entire article, not just the 2/3 of the page not covered by advertisements which apparently have no shut-off. At a time when national news is critically important, it shows clear corporate disregard for anything of importance that might be said in the second half of any article that can't be read through your paid advertising.

  20. Commenting Ban Question

    Why have I been banned from commenting on the AOL articles without so much as a notification? My last post was 15 days ago. I have been an AOL member for years. I see multiple people have this same problem. If you're using OpenWeb to control access. That may explain the reason.
