  2. Opt out of specific advertisers

    I would like to Opt OUT of receiving ad's from certain companies like McAfee. I have had the WORST time removing this product from PC's over the years. I remove it and it pops back up! I find it invasive just like a virus. Other companies are also ones I will never want, and I don't want to click on one by accident.

  3. Better filter malicious advertising

    I clicked on an email that was actually an advertisement in the email list.

    When I went to close the page that opened, it did one of those things that takes over the screen and warns you falsely of a virus, and I had to shut off my computer to regain control.

    If Yahoo Mail advertising is literally taking people to scammers, this is a very bad thing.

    Thanks Eric for letting us know! Definitely want to report those kinds of ads as they shouldn't be in our platforms. Next time, can you take a screenshot of those ads and send them to oasis.mail.feedback@yahooinc.com? Thank you!

  4. email ads

    We were just migrated from Xfinity email to Yahoo. Ads are showing up in our email which we do not want and want to delete. There does not appear to be a way to delete unless you pay a monthly fee to be ad-free. This is totally unacceptable. We do not want an inbox full of ads. We will quit Xfinity and yahoo if the only way to not have an inbox full of ads to pay a monthly fee.

    Yes we do have ads today on our platform. We know not everyone will enjoy the ads, so we do offer an ad-free experience (like many apps today) if you upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus, but of course it's not mandatory. Thanks!

  6. You can improve it by stop sending irrelevant Ads

    Please stop sending Ads , they are most annoying and I do not want them.

    I am being inundated with spam mail which started a short time ago. Maximum 50 of these unwanted mails per day. Is there a reason for it? Would you please put a stop to it. Up to now my mailbox was free of these.

    Yours,

    Please make sure you are marking these emails as spam instead of just deleting. Also, if they are newsletters please make sure you unsubscribe from these. We will also share this with our anti-spam team. Thank you!

  13. Ads with inappropriate images

    I do not like ads relating to dating apps or nude images. Could you please remove them from my account?

  14. ads making scrolling difficult

    I use Yahoo Mail on my Safari browser on a Mac laptop. In the past few months, my inbox has become difficult to scroll almost to the point of unusable. Every time I move the page (scroll), it seems like the ads are reloading and reorganizing my inbox. I cannot track the movement through the inbox when the list of emails is constantly moving up and down on the page. I don't mind the ads, however the refresh rate when scrolling seems unnecessarily fast. Thanks in advance for looking into this.

  16. Disappointed :(

    It is sooooo disappointing to see the paywall added to yahoo mail. Previously, I preferred my yahoo mail account to my gmail account, but the "upgrades" done trying to force me to pay for ymail+ or whatever it is called is too much. I'm so sorry that yahoo has decided to go down this path, and I am a disappointed longtime customer.

  17. Manage Subscriptions

    Could you ad a similar feature like gmail that will allow you to manage your subscriptions and delete them. I got so many emails that are subscription based....I would love to be able to "unsubscribed" and delete all messages at the same time.

  19. ads are so annoying in web version from anywhere the ads pops up and why u dont have an desktop version, which is easiler to use then web

    please add ads in a way thats less annoying, it pops up from anywhere and add a desktop version like some app which is easier to to use than going on web, i like to track my portfolio frequently but going to web sign in again n again its kinda long process and the ads coming from top, bottom it wasnt a good experience. so if u could make a significant changes it would be really great, rest its all up to you, and ignore my informal way.

  20. icon counter

    I have a plan that includes Ads. I don't mind them and ignore them since my personal plan is to definitely buy something - once every billion years.

    Here's my question: Does the main opening screen banner, that includes an "envelope" icon and counter, include in its count the ads? Because if it is just the mail, I cannot for the life of me figure out what they are counting. The counter may say 7 and I see one new received mail item. Perhaps it is because I have taken numerous high level math classes that I cannot understand this…
