How can we improve AOL Mail?

← AOL Mail Norrin

Inappropriate ads

Inappropriate ads- it looks like Google is closing some ads when I select that it's inappropriate. But then it just sends me more!!!!! I don't need to see half naked women in bathing suits. I AM a woman not a dude, so quit sending me this **** and when you say you listen, MEAN IT. DO SOMETHING!

    AOL, why do you allow ads (at the top of my emails) that are at best just lies and untruths and scaremongering and at worst are scams that will try and take bank details/money off users? Don't you police who places ads? Don't you take action against those placing misleading ads? I will not be clicking on any of this misleading clickbait garbage. It's the sort of thing I expect to find in the spam folder. Please stop those posting these ads.

    Examples include

    From: Drive Storage
    Your cloud storage is full - Click here to upgrade your storage and backup your data
    this is factually incorrect and how could the ad placer know anything about anyone's cloud storage

    From: Drive Storage
    Drive Storage Full - Upgrade to keep receiving emails
    More nonsense.

    From: Update Storage
    Cloud Storage Is Almost Full
    Nonsense. A previous ad said it was already full

    From: McAfee.com
    Your Antivirus Requires Activation - Click Here To Activate McAfee Antivirus License Now
    I haven't got McAfee and it's not necessary

    From: McAfee.com
    Your card payment has failed? Update Payment...
    I haven't got McAfee and never attempted to purchase it

    limiting our ability to block more than 1,000 spam addresses is not right. These spammers can use multiple addresses by changing 1 character and the 1,000 limit is quickly used up. Make this unlimited or 1 million, or start policing these spam addresses and block them yourself

    Why are you still showing email ads? They're annoying and distracting. Make them go away!

  • Elizabeth F. commented  ·   ·  Report

    AOL is not responding to mine or anyone else's request to stop these extremely offensive ads.

  • Brian Termunde commented  ·   ·  Report

    I cover the right side of the screen with key envelopes! I work at a hotel and don't want AOL to offend any of my guests with the awful ads that are shown! You're NOT getting any of my disposable income with ANY of those ads! If I WAS using one of THOSE companies, I would cease doing so!

    I live in Ohio Why am I getting ads for Businesses in Tennesse ?☹

    I always have my personal email running in the background even while at work. I have had underwear ads and dating sites pop up on my work computer. I have clicked to remove the ads and they keep popping up. I have never been to either of these types of sites and think it is totally inappropriate to take over my computer with this garbage.

    This is a work email used in an office setting, I do not need women in their bras and underwear constantly, use other advertisers. It is the same ads over and over and over

  • Elizabeth F. commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please stop indecent ads! The constant bombardment of naked bodies very offensive!

  • Orient Stars commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is my WORK email and I am MALE! Why am I seeing ad of NOTHING but women in their UNDERWEAR! Its NOT APPROPRAITE! It makes me look like a creep.

    I am tired of seeing sexual and racist ads on my news feed. You should be ashamed as a company for allowing such ads. There needs to be an option to report these ads to prevent them from being shown on an individual feed.

  • NANCY DONNELLY commented  ·   ·  Report

    aol needs to change the feed of advertisements so
    inappropriate ads will not be showing on the webmail

  • Jane Wurm commented  ·   ·  Report

    I have been using AOL/Compuserve forever but within the past few weeks i am getting some sort of hardcore **** on the right panel of my mail-i did not ask for this and i certainly was not happy when my ten year old grandson alerted me to this obvious unwanted images. I have filled out every possible form to stop these ads as well as reporting this to several government agencies as this is completely unaccesptable. I am not paying extra to have adds taken away-you should honestly do something about this on your own as i went the past thirty years without seeing this garbage and i do not know why nor do i want to open my mail and see some girl's bare spread legs. You should be ashamed.
