Reviews and Complaints

Just today I hand typed 40 email addresses to the blocked list. Took a break and refreshed my mail, checked the blocked list and none of them were there! Why can't I find any of the emails that took me at least a half an hour to put in? Time to find another email that actually has a working block list. Yahoo is becoming worthless and security is extremely lacking!

Good day, I have a troubling in sign in my yahoo account and I have been sending a request to receive account key to my phone number because I don't have access to my alternative email address. I have been trying this for a long period but All the efforts had faulted. Please, rectify. My email is sale.[protected]@yahoo.com and my phone number is +[protected]. Thanks.

THIS IS THE MESSAGE I RECEIVED...

There has been a request to cancel your Yahoo account
benjimac48.

Sometimes these requests are made in error. If this deactivation was not requested by you, we ask that you submit your password in reply to this email.

Once the current password on the account is verified the deactivation request will be canceled and your account will remain active.

Be advised, once an account is deactivated it cannot be recovered.

Thank You, The Yahoo Team

ME: Can we find out who sent this message, and sentence them to jail? I would recommend 1 day in jail for each false message sent.

Here is a link.

Can any individual /company advertise without your checking that they're factual ? This ad goes out to anyone with a Yahoo email account. It's fraudulent on so many levels I wonder how it got past you?

If you're not prepared to validate advertising you put out, you should stop advertising!

Here is the link that flashed up on my email account where I am unable to disable it:

I do not like the new yahoo and I am forced to use it. How can I get back to my old one? When I receive an attachment it opens on the side and you cannot see all of it or you have to download it to view it and it adds to your hard drive bogging it down. When I want to go to the web page I have to go out if yahoo and go to google. On the previous version you had a choice on the search line. When I want to archive something it does not go to that folder.

I do not like the new version and I would like to see these things changed or I would like to go back to the old version.

Extremely disappointed in the new version.

Dear Vashu your question I cannot answer since they relate to a financial transaction with Flickr some time ago 2010. My Bank name is always Christopher Thomas Robinson so you should have a record of this. Though my daughter Grace Robinson also paid for me the last time. My albums will be /Burma /Grange Day Centre/ Dara Academy/Shri Lanka/ I am disappointed if not angry at Flickr Yahoo who have not done anything to save my account which I paid for. My ID is very distinctive as a Royal Academy Artist and who painted and met Aung San Suu Kyi. The flickr page states "I am an artist...a printmaker... and writer...I trained at the Royal Academy Schools London... Landseer Medal for Painting...exhibited at the UK National Portrait Gallery Royal Academy Royal Portrait Society...was a Buddhist monk in Burma...have met and painted Aung San Suu Kyi at her home in 1995 and 1996 ...have worked for the Body Shop and Amnesty International on humanitarian projects ...also for the Andrew Lees Trust and World Wild Life Fund in Madagascar's sacred forests... sometimes live in my houses in Chiang Mai Thailand...visit my family in Burma... work for Burmese refugees on educational projects...and Thai schools...I love to paint and printmake...have regular art commissions or sell here and there... my best skill are portraits and engravings / drypoints" I can show evidence of the Landseer medal and my portrait spork for Suu Kyi here are my Pinterest pages which relate to Suu Kyi the landseer medal etc. https://www.pinterest.co.uk/korinikeda/paintings-of-chris-breadon/ https://www.pinterest.co.uk/korinikeda/my-paintings-in-british-national-collections-bbc-w/ All my life's work was documented on Flickr and because of making other free Flickr pages and a mistake with sighning in Flickr have closed it all. Yours Chris Robinson

NO I am sorry that is my Flickr web page and you locking me out has destroyed all my life's photographs . These include the only existing photographs of my deceased mother. You have not even tried any of the information I gave you. Your responses are simply bot generated replies. How can I start another Flickr when you have locked away all my own photographs.Not only that but for years you invited me to store my photographs with you at a cost. I want a review of your procedure please. Chris Robinson.

Of course you have to include ads in order to make your business profitable;
But I have complained about some of the ads, continuously, for the past several weeks.
Somehow, some way, you got the impression that I wear women's clothes, and so you bombard me with these flashing photos of clothing, bathing suits, etc, of women's clothes, all the time. I click on the "I don't like" button, many times a day, to no avail.
You thank me for making Yahoo better, but the ads still come. Why?
The flashing makes me very uncomfortable, even irritable.
Please show me how to change the type of ads that I get.
Thanks.

Hi, I want to complain about the level of vile, racist trolling which is prevalent on the 'comments' section of your UK news posts. I've been onto a news posts just now about a couple murdered in Jamaica and the level of racism directed at those who live in the country is upsetting and deeply offensive. Yahoo should be either taking action against those posting or prevent comments altogether. What are Yahoo doing about this problem exactly?

Here is the link to the post. Please look at the comments and tell me if you think some of these comments are acceptable or even legal in the united Kingdom?

I formally complain about your vetting of the news stories that appear on the Yahoo page at https://uk.yahoo.com/?p=uk.

Notably a story about Prince Harry making a "Huge Announcement " which is linked to a page at

https://beap.gemini.yahoo.com/mbclk?bv=1.0.0&es=lESQHo8GIS._Gc0mBXQzY0b2DiI637l0gQg.BEFU_Y0QWOgLRiyJaV1FW6t_SmL.8iblIR8IAyOSP.fg6Whh.30P_Le8vdIelOopHdjl_EngQkcQ9cxjlfqeJjo11o9CvQzn4USqMpXBb4ejQL9sazoyccuFGqyLU1skQ96oIjN.6VfzqsVJlbUWshlvM9Vr3A7YeQOHph3njfjYlm09OQlmTGiNkU7YXMbzvlP6Bslh0_GPokAsZsFEEivFtx5UAS0dLRZ0BFJ8Nh03MfjpUbkDa2LVSkcQ2o8I5CYF8Az.U6xQhSnU1zS6CDXZy9YG5dkE.IbEnMBHbiHH7DV12jkrk9po2lx8LkURXkfqLBdVM9ZcCFhSYS3JVdvTDxf0sjpKI5F8.Ee2NxO8ONn5xFZQtnlUxgDbPMU.oFJQ_lxAbH8FQhAXSgJjuoqDo3X6Z9q5bIOAl.LwhkzEE.yWkqvj2b7n7WiD..z_5dxsmNxZ_nXffZ6kGtpAqap9maP1iDj7QXmJtyeEpNI_xfsWXQpmtmUMWQ--%26lp=

which in fact lands on http://storybun.com/prince-harry-makes-huge-announcement-that-hes-jumping-on-financial-tech/

which appears to be the BBC website !

It is actually a scam trying to con people into buying into Bitcoin Trader.

It is appalling that you accept this sort of "sponsored" misleading scam on Yahoo and I ask that you take action to prevent it

Many thanks

I trusted you to provide me with an email account and you have ceased my access for no valid reason.

My email account was [protected]@yahoo.co.uk
Apparently you have ceased it as you can no longer provide an account for people under 16. I am not under 16. I am 52. It has never and will never be used by someone under 16.

I understand you had obligations under the new law but this law did not mean that you had to irrevocably cease the account when you find what you though was not true.

You are demonstrating that you can not be trusted with any serious communications. As you might suddenly choose to misinterpret a piece of information and cease an account with no recourse. I am a Charity and wanted people to attend events organised through this account. All of our advertising is now wrong.

No wonder people are leaving the platform.

I will be complaining to the regulator about your behaviour.

About a week ago I opened up my yahoo inbox (an account I have had for 20 plus years) and found my emails in my inbox had dissappeared. I have since placed 2 requests to restore the inbox and heard nothing. There were some important email documents in there and I am very concerned that they have been lost.
Please respond and follow up.
Regards,
Delia

Someone there at Yahoo has messed up your ccs. All the links website pages are scrabbled up. On the websites u link to and on the websites the links are messed up as well. Don't u Yahoo folks QA your workers and their work? Also, your news sites that r anti-Trump post to much fake news. Also your writers need to go back to school and learn grammar and how to spell.

I would like to know why Yahoo is allowing their sponsors to use the images of the US woman's gymnastics team that were sexual molested in order to get clicks. This is unacceptable that your company is allowing this top happen. I would like a response on this matter and what your company is doing about this to insure this madness stops. Email a response to [protected]@yahoo.com.

I called in on Sunday to get help logging in to my email. I talked to Andrew Smith and Raymond Parker. They are two of the worst customer service agent I have ever dealt with. When I spoke when I to speak to a manager I was transferred from Andrew to Raymond who preceded to try and talk over me the whole time I was trying to explain my problem and then after I told him that he was doing so told me that I could [censored] off and then called me a [censored]. I have never been so disrespected especially from customer service and all my life I will never use another Yahoo service again and I will make sure every person I know knows how awful the helpline service is. I ended up losing out on close to $1, 000 for a phone that was apparently hacked into the email and sent to a different address I explain to Andrew and Raymond that the phone is the email that I was needing, they proceeded to tell me that the email was hacked and so knew there was a chance that this could happen. I cannot believe that Yahoo would allow workers to talk to someone like this that is trying to get help from them. Raymond told me multiple times that I could [censored] off, that I was a [censored], that I had no money, and many other derogatory things. As a manager and a customer service representative I would certainly hope that you guys do something to rectify this situation so no other client or customer has to deal with this kind of service.

I use internet explorer... Period! Yahoo now trashes ie because yahoo no longer supports ie... I have forwarded my email to gmail and will drop yahoo mail if yahoo refuses to support ie! Ms includes ie in windows 10... I use a desktop and laptop and not a [censored] cell phone for internet! Everyone I know is ready to trash their pc and go to mac as soon as their pc's go obsolete... Wake up or good bye both to yahoo and ms...!

Hi, I've been exposed for criminals who are attempting to blackmail me for money through posting of videos of me with obscene and incorrect heading on flickr. Even though I reported this almost 24 hours ago, the vide and profile is still up, which I find unacceptable. Would you please take action in this case as soon as possible, in order to limit any negative impact for me and my friends/connections?

flickr profile (fake, using my name):

I've used this company for several years for several websites. I even stayed with them when they messed up my accounts switching to aabaco and I had to start all over losing everything in my connected email accounts. Recently Yahoo cancelled both of my websites claiming I didn't obey the policies. I've done nothing new and none of the policies go against what I've done. I got a message claiming my information isn't current but that isn't true.

After canceling me I learned I can't get a refund nor will they give me the code to transfer my websites to another company. I feel ripped off and abused. I was doing business using those emails and now can't recover my information saved there and some accounts with other companies will not allow me to change my primary email accounts that were attached to those website. What worst is not even having someone talk to me about the direct infringement I supposively done so I can prove or be disprove the issue.
I'm mad about not getting refunds especially when one recently renewed but furious that Yahoo will not give me the codes to transfer my own domain names!
My websites are:
lscmm.org
sdavis-highdale.com

I think yahoo has deleted my account. I am not able to sign into my address because when I try, I get the message that they do not recognize the name. None of the measures mentioned in the help section on their website have helped. I sent several emails to the help line, but I get no response. I really need to have access to this account! Why do they pretend not to have heard of me, after I have had this account for at least 4 years?!
