Yahoo! racism

I typed in a search and their top searches was the most racist thing I have ever seen. Yahoo is well known to be a liberal biased company, but this is unacceptable. I want this to be handled like other stories. I want the leaders of Yahoo to acknowledge they push this narrative for their agenda. They should post a warning that they support biased liberal agendas and hide conservatives point of views.

Yahoo! horrible news feed content about animal/human abuse

I have always used Yahoo as my homepage to open my computer. It used to be be great to catch up on the news before I start my work day. NOW,
I am sick and tired of the majority of the stories you show are about abuse of animal/children/adults! These stories are disturbing and there is no way to report them or change my preferences. This needs to be addressed!

Most of your news feed now reads like a grocery store tabloid, I'm just waiting for the story of "An Elvis Impersonator from Mars impregnated my hamster".

Get with the program Yahoo before you lose yet another customer!

Yahoo! click bait and fake news

When we are on our email page or any yahoo page there are constant side ads that are completely untrue news statements. E.g. Sweden adopts bitcoin as national currency, and sometimes sugesting people have died that haven't.
It's very irritating and whoever is allowing this to happen should be ashamed of needing to resort to such low behaviour which highlights everything that preys on the innocents on the internet. No wonder people are starting to use the Dark Web!

Yahoo! yahoo news

Is it possible to augment what I see when I go to yahoo.com? Your news stories are getting worse and worse, i feel like it's becoming a tabloid mag.

Your stories are just nasty and shocking...I feel I do a good job on not selecting them but they keep showing up. I don't see a way of telling you that I don't like the post, or want this organization banned from what i see.

At this point I'm searching for a new news source.

Yahoo! yahoo news page

I'm sorry! But I really do not like your one sided liberal anti Trump news every day that I see when I go to Yahoo to sign in to see my e-mail. New is not suppose to take sides. I remember when that was the way news organizations in the USA acted. Dan Rather tried to take sides on politics one time, and got fired for it. Please do not take sides on politics. Not all of your customers are liberals.

Yahoo! yahoo account recovery system difficulty

Hello, I am writing your company today to make a complaint and give my overall review about accessing my yahoo account. I think the new account recovery method is a very time consuming and horrible idea. The fact that we as users are having to receive a message in order to gain access to our accounts is beyond insane. Majority of the users who are utilize Yahoo for personal or business purposes would agree that the old method of just inputting our personalized password is easier and saves less time. For example, If I work in a office setting and I may need to gain access to my account to check my daily mail (and some jobs require that you donot power your phones on or utilize them on the job) ; I will not be able to do due to my job's policy. I am requesting that you all bring the old method of logging into My Yahoo Account back and make daily users of Yahoo lives much more easier, such as :mothers, business men/women, corporate america, and consumers all over the world.

Yahoo! zoom lens for smartphone from gadget supply company.com

Hi, I saw this ad in Yahoo webpage selling this Zoom lens for smartphones. I made the purchase on 6/20 and got the confirmation letter with the order number. After almost a month did not receive anything so I sent email to [protected]@gadgetsupplyco.com with no response. Sent 3 follow-up letters still no reply. Tried to call them but the phone number doesn't exist. Suspect this is a false merchant. Can you help me to get my money back? Thanks

The same happened to me. I order a drone from the Ad in Yahoo webpage on July 21. After I ordered, I was trying to contact them to make small adjustment to the orders. I have sent many emails but there was no response. I called them many times, but the number listed on their webpage is invalid and cannot be reached. After one week, I receive a confirmation email saying "the order is on the way" with no tracking number and shipping company name. I then sent them many emails to ask for the information, but it's completely quiet. No response. I suspect this is a fake company.

Yahoo! [protected]@yahoo. gr

I create an account about 15 years ago. My password was abc123... That simple! You made an upgrade telling to set a more complex password... I don't remember what password I set.
Now i'm trying to recover my account with whatever method you need.
I'm willing to give you a new mail account on gmail to send a verification code or to give up my phone number to send an sms or even talk to me, or give you my police id number but there is no option for none of these!
Please mercy!
Next time you'll choose to change your policy i'll go through this again?

Yahoo! my display name on my outgoing mails

My name is Patricia Ikponmwosa-Amadin. I have been using yahoo for years. But i do not understand how come when i end mails from my email address, people tell me they receive my mails from a certain UBA REFERENCE or UBA ALERT as the sender rather than my name. Its getting embarassing. Kindly look into this and revert pls.

What i mean is that the display name on my outgoing mails is not mine and i have never filled any form indicating that i am that person or that i know that person

If there is anything that can be done to restore my name back to Patricia Ikponmwosa-Amadin, i will br very grateful so that my recipients do not begin to see me as a scam who has a reason to hide their identity

Yahoo! yahoo news

Why is it that every time I go onto Yahoo to check a news article with a video, I have to scroll down pages and pages of absolute crap to stop another video that has started playing prior to the video I am trying to watch and ultimately drowning out the audio on the video. Then after watching the chosen video without interruption from the other crap that started playing prematurely, I want to check the comment section, but Yahoo, in it's infinite wisdom sends you to the next article that has nothing to do with the original content. Get your [censored] together you bunch of Donkey Raping [censored] Eaters

2. NO NOTIFICATIONS VIA EMAIL that action has taken place against a User.

3. Pushing an UNETHICAL AGENDA!

4. Proceeds to spam User's email account with Spam/Junkmail in response to opinions Yahoo employees disagree with

Yahoo! news

Why are news headlines being twisted? A Yahoo UK News story adapted from the Guardian was given a new headline that emphasised Trump as taunting protesters, making him the central actor in the story: "Trump Taunts Protestors from Gulf Course".

The choice of this headline empowers Trump in the situation. Surely a better headline would have been "Trump Taunted by Protestors".

Does Yahoo News have a pro-Trump agenda?

Yahoo! adverts

2 weeks ago I notified you that I no longer wanted to receive any adverts from a company called Jet2 holidays . This is because I have had a very unpleasant experience with them and as a result have under no circumstances any intentions to ever use them. Today despite me notifying you of this another ad from this company appeared on my home page. This I find insulting and demand an apology. Should this not be the case I would have to alter my home page
