Make verification optional
WHY does yahoo insist on sending me a verification code every time I log in, with the SAME computer? It is annoying, takes more time and makes us do yet another 2-3 steps to access our email account. If you want or think you need to secure our account with verification code then at least make it optional. I will take the risk. And, no, it's NOT the 2-step verification.
Hi there. If there's something unusual about your sign in or recent activity, we'll ask you to go through another verification step after you've entered the correct password. This is an important security feature that helps to protect your account from unauthorized access. You may be prompted to get a verification code on your Yahoo app, recovery phone number, or recovery email address for any of the following reasons:
- Yahoo notices suspicious account activity.
- You're using an unfamiliar browser or device.
- You're traveling away from your usual location.
- You sign in while using a VPN or a proxy server.
- You've logged in with a private or incognito window.
- There are many attempts to sign in with incorrect passwords.
- The "First time signing in from this device" message appears.
- You've cleared your browser history or data cache including cookies.

'Try Again in an Hour '?????? Yahoo need to try harder right now!!!!!
This recent degradation, where I can't access my inbox + get told to try again in an hour, is a serious backwards step for Yahoo..
Wait for an hour in this day + age??? Are you joking???
I don't wait an hour for anything!!!!! I want real-time, on demand + instant, in an hour these days = never!!! It could all be over in an hour, you're sending a message I don't want to hear, not now or ever...... + Lord forbid it, not in an hour!!!!!Thanks for bringing this to our attention. That sounds familiar. Yahoo may at times enforce a login wait to help ensure account security and privacy. There's no way for us to bypass this in the contact center, so we recommend waiting the prescribed amount of time. It's usually fairly short and you can then try logging in again. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

how is it possible to create a Yahoo email account without a phone or mobile number?
email verification would be okay.

Hi. For security reasons, it isn't possible to update or change the date of birth listed on your Yahoo account, even if you entered it incorrectly when you first registered your account. You'll need to open a new account if you'd like your account to reflect your accurate info.

I should not have to go through 25 frames of I am not a robot, picking out objects if I intered the correct ID and pass word for my email
Stop making us go through 25 frames of I am not a robot just to get to email.. If I pass the ID and pass word, then I should not have to pick out traffic lights 56 times before I get in to email. You are wasting my time.
Hi. Yahoo uses CAPTCHA verification to protect against spam or other unauthorized account access. By selecting the correct images, you verify you're human and not a spam-sending computer.
When you'll encounter a CAPTCHA:
- Creating a new Yahoo account.
- Performing too many failed sign in attempts.
- Forwarding messages (chain letters, jokes, etc.).
- Accessing your account from a new browser, computer, or location.
- Sending an email containing HTML, links, embedded graphics, attachments.

Make it possible to delete an account after I switch to another internet provides
I want to delete my account because it only gets junk emails from companies I have no relationship with, but because I do not hav an active ATT account, I can't do that
Due to contractual agreements and the nature of your issue, you'll need to contact AT&T for a resolution. When contacting AT&T support, it is very important that you provide your full AT&T email address so that they are able to successfully locate your account in their system. Here's how to contact them: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/account/sln25426.html

Make it easier to move between Yahoo.com email and ATT email that also uses yahoo
We should not have to sign out of ATT.net in order to sign into yahoo.com. Once I check into my att mail, I am signed out of yahoo and it will not recognize my password to sign in again, I have been resetting my password on each 2 or 3 time a week in some weeks. At one time this worked smoothly. Both addresses were shown and I could select the one to check. Them a change was made and it is no longer possible.

why on earth you guys delete the blocking unwanted and stupid advertising from the list of key function .And you stupid allowed all stupid
reinstate the blocking and deleting unwanted email to my function under more function on the head of my email yahoo account and stop forcing your stupid advertising to my email.
Hi there. Please make sure you did not reach the limit of 1000 blocked addresses. The block feature is best used for people, not spam, since spammers can use spoofed accounts. Meaning what you see might not be the actual sender address. The more often you mark these emails as Spam, the more you train your personal mail filter to recognize them as unwanted. Also, you can create filters by going to mail.yahoo.com from a laptop/PC, click Settings>More Settings>Filters. Here you can add as rule to filter the repetitive terms you see in the subject line or email body.
If you need additional help, please contact us on Twitter at @YahooCare or on Facebook at our Yahoo Customer Care page. If you do not have a social media account, we are available at help.yahoo.com through the ''Contact us'' link.
Thank you,

Why do I need support and pay for changing my password
Changing passwords for yahoo should not be a fete. If this does not change I will use another email account. I have had this account since 1999 and really do not want to change. You have to pay for yahoo to change your password.
Hi there. You can always recover your account online for free as long as you have access to your account recovery information (mobile phone number/recovery email address). Our phone support team is there to verify that you are the rightful owner of the account by other means of verification. You can try the Sign-in Helper (login.yahoo.com/forgot) to get back into your account.
Help Central (https://help.yahoo.com/) is your starting point for getting assistance from us. Support may come via email, chat, or help articles, depending on the question or issue you have and the Terms for your region.

I changed my surname
I changed my surname because I got married. As it is not possible to change my yahoo e-mail address from old surname to new surname, I wanted to create a new yahoo email address. However I have only ONE PHONE NUMBER, and when I am creating the new yahoo email address I can not proceed as the phone number is already used with the current yahoo account. I of course do not want to delete the current account as many people (organizations, state authorities) will of course email to my current email and maybe it will take one year to…
Hi there. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you! You can either try using a different mobile number to register a new account or I would recommend updating only your Account name and sending name to your current one.
