'bug Remove the right pane in a SEARCH result page with a Paid ad-free subscription' has been merged into this idea

Get rid of the pop-up ads

Get rid of ads when you open mail. I've dislikes the same ones over and over, and they keep coming back. Ive tried to opt out, but it only got rid of 15 of 48 locations.

    Stop putting ads into the email list. You don't allow us to delete them and it is almost worse than spam.

    For years Microsoft has placed Deceptive Ads disguised as something of interest, (or something distasteful you want to remove) but now they not only place these ads, but even if you just try to remove the ad, it says "You Clicked On A Deceptive Ad", NO! I clicked on the Box that should mark it as the Item I want deleted from my screen. I DID NOT attempt to open the Ad. Microsoft then Demands that you call their number and they will fix the problem. The problem is that this Ad has locked the computer controls & screen demanding you call Microsoft & FOR A LARGE SUM OF MONEY they will fix & restore your computer. IT's time for AOL to STOP ALLOWING THESE KINDS OF ADS, you are complicite in this SCAM! Users have paid Thousands of dollars, maybe Hundreds of Thousands of dollars since this has been a SCAM Aol has allowed for at least 20 years in one form or another. If not, then maybe you'd prefer a CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT?!?

    Exactly what the header says. I shouldn't have to pay to not see ads, and I am ok with ads -- but the flashing, moving, strobing ones are more than a distraction. They are overtly distracting, and trigger migraines and epilepsy. Does AOL want to pay for medical bills that they cause?

    pleas stop putting adds at the top of my email, The one that said, ,some has viewed your profile 3 times is a hacker, a alarm went of and flashing lights and I could not do anything with my computer. I had to unplug it and glad it did reload. scarry!! its back at the top of my email again today and I want it gone!!!!

    Apparently you do not want to hear my improvement idea because you refuse to post it. Maybe that should tell you something about those annoying adds

    Eleven Forest has spectacular pictures of clothing in an ad on AOL's email; however, the reality is they produce extremely cheap **** and not like the items in the ad. I'm trying to get a refund and they offered 20% of the actual cost of the ****. AOL needs to scrutinize who they accept money from for advertising and research the quality of the business. Apply some sort of standard to help protect AOL's reputation.

    With a paid Ad-Free subscription - the right pane is still present when you do a search (ex: clicking on the magnifying glass on an email item to show all similar items). Please remove the right pane (which is what I'm paying to have removed) during a search result page. If you are unable to do this, please let me know so that I can cancel my subscription. Thanks.

    This site was designed by women for women only. do not show men kissing or women kissing. It is disgusting to see grown up men kissing each other

    I tried to add this to an existing one but that didn't work. I will get an ad that covers up my content so choose to close it. yay! But then another ad just takes its place. Why AOL? Why? Please fix this!

    GET RID OF YOUR EXTREMELY IRRATING STYLE OF MOVING OBJECT ADVERTISING

  • Gerald Liebling commented  ·   ·  Report

    Stop including ads that cannot be blocked by ad blockers. You just want to sell your ad blocker

  • SOPHIE KIDIAN commented  ·   ·  Report

    I don't want to see your ads and do NOT want to pay more to remove your ads that I did not ask for!!! This is so wrong and annoying!

  • MARK LOGGIN commented  ·   ·  Report

    You often can't read emails easily on aol because there is so much 'on top' stuff you only get about 3 lines of your email. Sometimes when you are trying to read something you can't read all the way across without moving the scroll bar to the right. So please fix this. Either allow your users to open an email in a new window as it was before or to reduce the size of all of the bumph above, to the left and to the right of what we are actually trying to read.

    If you pay for one of the AOL monthly plans AD Free mail should be included.

    The same SPAM keeps coming back. They change a letter or a # and they keep coming. I get very little Spam in Gmail what do they do that you don't or WON't
