  1. Hallo!

    I've tried to write my feedback to you, but somehow it did not work out - so I am writing here in the hope that technical staff can see this.

    I usually check and send my e-mails from my home computer. It must have a permanent or dynamic IP or whatever you use to see my location.
    Today I needed to send an e-mail and I used my smartphone for this. The system did not let me! The message was something like - "it's not your usual location - try from another device".
    So, my question is: Why the ****…

  7. I do not like that yahoo asks me all the time to add a phone number or email to recover, nor do I like to be asked to change password

    basic email account should be simple and easy. options should be optional, and access must be guaranteed quickly and in the least complicated possible way.

  9. Why don't you allow landline numbers to secure an account? I don't have a cell phone, & went I try to add my phone, it says "no vip numbers

    Allow land line numbers for account security. I keep getting the message that you don't allow "VIP" numbers. I don't have "VIP", whatever the **** that is, I have a land line. I DON'T have a cell phone, so asking me to add a number is worthless!

  10. What have you done to my Facebook filter? I go away to bury my mother and come back to maybe 25/day - not even near the # of posts I receiv

    Fix whatever you did to Facebook Notifications; after being away for a week, I now get a fraction of what I should. I can see on my Timeline that there should be many more than the 35 or so you're letting reach my email; there should be a couple 100 as in the past. Fix it!
