Remove the ad from the bottom of the preview screen!

Please remove the bottom ad that blocks me from seeing my emails in the preview pane. That is the most annoying thing!

    Is there any way I can remove the ads from the bottom of my screen - they are blocking my messages from my inbox. I am considering closing my Yahoo mail account.

  • Michael Gale commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ads covering a third of my email now! If this doesn't change, hello Gmail.

  • Cris Bennett commented  ·   ·  Report

    Do you realize that your advertisers want people to buy things from seeing their ads? When I only saw ads on the right side of my email, that was fine; I even considered buying what was in the ads. BUT NOW I AM JUST ANGRY!!! That's the risk you take when you over-do ad space; you are killing your own cash cow. Now that the extra bottom ad just covers my email preview, I just report every single ad as "covering content" BAD IDEA! My next complaint will be to your advertisers so you won't get their money anymore. Is THAT what you want???

    I will be switching to google if the ad screen at the bottom of the preview screen is not removed. I know your goal is to get me to buy the premium version. But you have now made it impossible to read my mail. I already get made fun of for having yahoo instead of google, so now you are helping me make the switch. Yahoo can now be my spam account. Also, if you think the ad is working because of clicks, those clicks are by mistake, since it's super confusing.

    Please remove the new additional ad bar.
    Unable to read Yahoo emails due to lot of ad flickering on screen.
    Bad for eyes and general overall health of Yahoo mail users.
    Extra ad bar at the bottom is excessive. We already have a side bar.

    Agreed. I thought it was malware until I read this post. I don't use gmail due to their annoying ads, but this is even worse. Awful.

    I came here to say the same thing. I can't even read my emails now there is no room for the body of the email!

  • William Sims commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please get rid of the new ad bar at the bottom of the screen. Don't want to switch to G-Mail for my primary but will have to unless this ad bar goes away. Takes up way to much space. Having one on the right is more than enough.

    Now I am unable to preview my email at all! This is enough to transition my yahoo to become my new spam only account.

  • Liz Yocom commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agreed! This is the most annoying thing ever! Please remove the bottom ad!

  • Billy Pinter commented  ·   ·  Report

    I appreciate the sidebar ad, but the extra ad bar at the bottom is excessive. It occupies too much screen space. The additional ad bar at the bottom almost makes it impossible to read email. Please remove it!

  • Margaret Kellner commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please remove the ad at the bottom of our inboxes. I understand the need for ad revenue, and the bar on the right side of the screen is fine, but these new bottom ads are too much. Not only do they lessen the amount of space we have to read our emails, they are extremely distracting and make me not want to use Yahoo at all. My eye is constantly drawn down to the ad that flashes and changes frequently, which wastes my time and undermines the point of using Yahoo for email in the first place. If I can't do my business as usual, I have no need for Yahoo. Plus, the constant flickering of the ad hurts my eyes. If this lower ad bar persists, I'll have to move to a different platform. It will be difficult to do, but it will be necessary and I will go.

    I know Yahoo is a corporate entity that is solely out to make money, but please be better than that, at least on SOME level. Please treate your users with respect.

    I agree this is very annoying. It bothers my eyes. If you don't remove it I will just stop using yahoo mail. I know you're doing this to get us to upgrade but I'm not interesting in upgrading.

  • Travis Boyd commented  ·   ·  Report

    There is no space on the screen for my mail anymore with these ever increasing ads

  • L. Morgan commented  ·   ·  Report

    I can't read my emails with the giant banner ad at the bottom of the page. Please move it to the right side with the other ads.

  • barbara saunders commented  ·   ·  Report
