Yahoo Mail Basic
Basic Mail provides base functionality like reading and writing messages, but does not include many of the advanced options. To use these features, we recommend upgrading to full-featured version of Yahoo Mail.

When I travel to Thailand (3 times per year) I use my AOL account to get your confirmation mail. Now AOL is doing the same thing. I cannot
I have a premium account with Yahoo. I travel to Thailand 3 times per year. On every trip I am required to confirm by getting an email at AOL. Now AOL is doing the same thing. I spend over 13 weeks per year in Thailand and cannot login.

"********* to the Outhouse"
You have turned the finest Email site into GARBAGE! I have had a yahoo account for 20+ years and I'm ready to dump it for Gmail. It operates so slowly I literally have to wait 30 seconds+ for it to respond to my keystrokes while it tries to load some "******** Ad".
I know I'm only one of your "millions of customers" and you probably don't care if I leave, but I don't have any problems with Gmail or Comcast mail, so you lose. I don't have to pay for ads on the other sites for fast service.

Why must I get a code EVERY DAY to sign into my mail when I have had the same account for years and the same computer for years.
Stop making me get a code every day to sign in on the same computer and same account I have been using for years. What's up with you guys now? Seriously, this is exaspirating.

yahoo has been hacked AGAIN - remotely.
9/20 - It started with being unable to read my mail messages, plus "temporary error 4" - so I went onto help and noticed that I have seen TWO other people's names where MY name should be (both male names, and I'm female) when i went to yahoo help to "troubleshoot" and get an instant fix. So i hovered over the names, then get this message: "your account data may be out of sync. Refresh the page to see your account.
People - DON'T. Change your password immediately. Not sure if this affects your security questions too! It may not…

I want my contacts back. Your changes are negatives. I hate your new version. Why do you think this is what we want? Get real.
Why do you make changes without thinking? If it ain't broken don't fix it. I lost my entire contact list and there is no option to fix on the basic site because your changes are messing it up. Stop trying to make something people DONT want!

Switch it back to the Yahoo Classic mail. The new version is the worst one available on the web...
The functionality is non-existent. You have to click through every thing. Nothing is intuitive or where you expect it to be. There are Ads below the buttons, which makes no sense at all. Things take forever to load, upload, and attach. You have a dumb pop-up confirmation window that you have to click through after sending the message (USELESS! Give me a pop-up if it is NOT successful.) It looks like *, functions like *, and makes no sense at all how the page, button, and things are organized. All that being said, the Basic version is leaps…

Can't change number of messages per page in Basic OR Full Featured Mail
Please make the number of messages per page an option with Basic AND Full Featured Mail. It is no longer possible. Options should be 25, 50, 100 and 200 at least.

Don't worry about my security!
Most of my email is just SPAM! When a site wants an email address or cell phone number (unavailable) for log in.
I use an email program because logging in to Mail.Yahoo.Com is pain, loading is slower, and there are no added benefits, like decent stationery.
Rumor has it that advertisements can contain malware and tracking. Are they delivered via SSL from a reliable source?

I think you need to supply people with actual live customer support for problems because, your help section is nothing but run around.
Add contact info (real info) not a 800 # with a recorded message telling you to go to your site for help. Your site is nothing but run around and offers no real help. Especially to people that have had their info hacked or changed making it impossible to fix or do anything you suggest. It's a joke you offer nothing in the form of support but robo responses. Add live chat support. A company this big who has been buying up others services can surely do this and afford it. Show you truly care about the people who use…

Fix Please!
So now I can no longer select and move emails into My Folders. I get a message saying "There was a problem! No folder selected. Please select a folder and try again." which is not true. Lately it's one thing after another with Yahoo mail. Please correct.
