Some reviewers were not happy with the customer service, highlighting a complete lack of helpful assistance or live agents when locked out of their personal accounts. Furthermore, individuals frequently complained about sudden arbitrary storage limits and mandatory account changes that resulted in permanent data loss and endless verification loops.

Would not even give it 1 star

Would not even give it 1 star

No access to accounts for more than a week.
Yahoo know there is a problem as I was told last Sunday by customer care after being on hold for 1.5 hours. Still not fixed

Texts not sent

second Codes not sent

Managing director and CEO have not even had the professional courtesy to respond once to email sent via another more competent provider.
Treated wit the upmost contempt.

Would not recommend. If business account would take it away immediately. Given my recent experience would not even be possible to run a business account.

You should give a 0 star

You should give a 0 star, they updated their app and it is not useful anymore, no way to attach file, it is a dead-end. Their developer did his best to screw them up.

Day by day YAHOO losts completely tracts and very serious abusive couldn't do anything like used to before. Yahoo Mail was the best and effective before and now forced pushed to clicked unnecessarily features updated messages then looked like not YAHOO Organised name's made critical Services. Also STORAGES full bussinness asked money fully loaded emails Boxes. So many Adverts never been read after opened to till yet. Altogether not really something I want to be rely. Also Mbl numbers WhatsApp Numbers pushed to send messages. Most of the times gets no Services couldn't opened the Yahoo Mail Account in anywhere. Please try to given Customers satisfactory Services. Thanks indeed.

It's a waste of time to post on Yahoo.

I used to enjoy leaving posts on Yahoo, but I've left very few posts on their site since they changed to the new system which is a total waste of my time. I have two master's degree and love to share my opinions, but Yahoo will reject well written articles for frivolous reasons. They present topics and then discourage elaboration on those topics. Actually, you can't espouse certain political points of view even if those views are presented in a manner that comports with their own community standards.

Great place to get a oil change

Everyone was so nice from the start to finish. I had a good talk with Joshua there were 2 new employees and they were awesome. They came and went over everything with me and that was awesome. I asked if they could check my rear wiper I thought it needed to be changed. They came to me and said that it was fine as well as my front wipers. Any other place would had said yes you need that wiper but not these guys. That’s why they have my business as well as my husband’s car. Good people. If you other locations were as good as this one then that’s awesome cause that’s what will bring the customers back. I hope they get recognized for a awesome job today.

Latest update is slower and far less user friendly. Do they not test at all? I don't want my email sorted automatically and folder configuration keeps getting harder and harder. Stop breaking things that work.

One more reason to look at other platforms.

Do NOT use Yahoo email I’m telling you because it is the most frustrating website I have ever used for emails, I can’t even access it anymore and when I do ask for help It keeps on telling me that a Yahoo specialist isn’t available like cmon? Just don’t have customer service at all if you work like this. Absolute garbage website, at this point just use Gmail.com it’s better in my opinion.

Tells you to set up a password, then doesn't accept it.

Yahoo went wrong about 5 years ago. When they removed my email forwarding, and replaced it with the premium plan. I didn't want to use Yahoo after that, but I was forced to log in. Normally they would accept my password. I would enter my username, then my password, and it would just log me in. But then they started doing things. Things that I have not consented to, and that I find intrusive. Such as constantly sending a code to my recovery email, just to verify it's me. The only problem? I have not enabled two-factor authentication. I attempted to contact support about the problem, only for support to tell me to face scan. I'm not giving this scheming company any PII ever. When this company decides to accept my password for what it is, my password, then I will consider giving them more stars. At this point I cannot recommend Yahoo to anyone. Who would? They tell you to set up a password, then it's not enough. I even attempted to generate this as an idea on Yahoo suggestions or something like that, and they deleted it. So clearly this is a constant issue.

I would give zero but need to leave a comment. The adverts in the middle of my email list was already annoying enough, now you get slowed down by streaks popping up every day. As if anyone wants to celebrate having to check emails every day. It's ridiculous. I'm going to start using another email because of this streak nonsense!

yahoo change sucks!!!

i am very upset that my old yahoo was changed to the new one. I HATE IT!! IT IS UGLY AND IT IS NOT USER FRIENDLY. I HAVE HAD YAHOO FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND I DONT LIKE THE NEW ONE AND I ALWAYS HAD TO CHANGE THE SETTINGS AND NOW THAT OPTION I CANT FIND. VERY UNHAPPY, THE NEW YAHOO IS UGLY
these days we cant control much, but i have had yahoo for years and prefer it over gmail. and i went into my email this morning to see that they changed it again! and i usually can go and switch to the old version and now that option isnt there. and for those of us who have had yahoo for years, we should have a choice. I dont like change unless it is what i want. and i dont want the new yahoo. I now will look for a new platform and i wont use the new one except to get my contacts and folders. technology always tries to change things to make them better, BUT IF IT ISNT BROKEN DONT TRY AND FIX OR CHANGE IT!!!! I am so mad and upset, eventully they are going to make it so you have to pay for it and I WONT.
