Hi. If there's something unusual about your sign in or recent activity, we'll ask you to go through another verification step after you've entered the correct password. This helps protect your account from unauthorized access. You may be prompted to get a verification code on your AOL app, recovery phone number, or recovery email address for any of the following reasons:
AOL notices suspicious account activity.
You're using an unfamiliar browser or device.
You're traveling away from your usual location.
You sign in while using a VPN or a proxy server.
You've logged in with a private or incognito window.
There are many attempts to sign in with incorrect passwords.
The "First time signing in from this device" message appears.
You've cleared your browser history or data cache including cookies.
We are sorry for the inconvenience this is causing you! If you need additional help, please contact us on Twitter at @AOLSupportHelp or on Facebook at our AOL Customer Care page. If you do not have a social media account, we are available at help.aol.com.
Thank you,
AOL team

Hallo Zusammen,
bei jede Anmeldung wird immer nach einem Code verlangt. Kann man das ändern?

Warum muss ich ein 2. e-mail programm benutzen? Die Frage: sind sie das wirklich? nervt ohne Ende, was soll der Scheiss? und dann muss ich in einem anderen Programm einen Zahlencode ablesen und bei AOL eingeben... Wenn das so weitergeht, benutze ich nur noch das andere Programm! Überlegt euch was - es ging ja jahrelang auch ohne eine 2. mail adresse...

The AI generated voice on the phone call is obnoxious and goes so fast you can't type in the numbers before it hangs up. I'm sure it's super cheap to do it this way, but not really usable. Truly an obnoxious "voice." Unless you are trying to get us to NOT use a phone call, but a text.

Your system has started, within the last few days, asking "Is it really you?". Once every six months or so is understandable. Every time I logon to check my email is far too often... it is a waste of my time, such that I am seriously considering using a different email system.

AOL like the other Email Inboxes and servers asks the User to jump, flip over and comply to various requirements when a password was working. maybe like Good you add the test message code. But to ask for the picture of the QR Code on the user's cell phone is going to far. I have to then erase history on all browsers on the mobile device. This is an Email company not a mobile, mail, phone #. Too much for merely looking at message. Besides this... it is an illusion of security for the User. Basic, don't share sign in information with others. Don't use an unprotected wireless system for going online. And dump your junk and spam -- flag it in the system. But soon, you will be asking for my favorite ice cream? Thank you.

The constant verification every time I want to read my emails is completely unnecessary. Stop it immediately!

Ich habe das gleiche Problem! Ich kann es verstehen bei Bankgeschäften. Ich möchte NUR meine
Emails lesen! Dafür reicht mein Passwort - diese doppelte Verifizierung nervt total.
Ich sitze IMMER an meinem Rechner zu Hause!
Was ist, wenn mein Handy mal weg oder kaputt ist??? Dann kann ich NICHT per Email das Problem lösen - Toll! -

I have to constantly keep a pc logged in to AOL because you refuse to offer any phone options for your incompetent 2 step verification. Please don't tell me to go to facebook. I do not use social media!
