  1. Remove the ads from the bottom of the email reading screen

    The ads to the side are somewhat unobtrusive, but now with ads at the top of the email and at the bottom of the email, there's hardly room for the message! Please remove the ad banner from the bottom of the email. This has gone too far!!!!

    We're glad you're here

    Yes, we do have a few ads in our app, but we also offer an ad-free experience (like many apps today) if you upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus, but of course it's not mandatory. We will also share your feedback with the right team. Thanks.

  4. Stop Ads and stop making people pay for their own email without ads.

    Get rid of ads and let people get their email without paying to have their own emails. I don't like it and I don't think ads are necessary

  6. Stop with E-mail imposter ads

    I understand ads are necessary, but I am NEVER going to support an ad I click on thinking it is an e-mail in the actual e-mail space. I just want to get through the already to prevalent ads in various e-mails, I don't need the application trying to trick me as well. I will actively avoid the product in such deceptive ads that are more nuisance than anything, and if a constant nuisance, will inform the advertiser their ad spend is turning me away from their product. Thanks for your consideration.

  8. Change the ads

    Please stop showing the Gundry MD ads over and over with people eating avocados. It's so gross to see that every time I open the email. Please, at least some variety. It won't allow me to click on an X to say I don't like the ad.

  10. Cut the ADS

    Why should we have to click on ads (for example looking for women to date) just to get rid of the filth????

    I am a woman and I am NOT SHOPPING FOR ONE.

    Choosing 'No Ads' In Preferences means NOTHING...

    Are these legit junk emails or newsletter/promotional type emails from stores, etc? Big difference. For legit spammy emails, please "mark as spam" instead of deleting. For other coupon/promotional type emails like from stores, unsubscribe, at one point (even if you don't remember) you subscribed to these emails. Hope this helps!

  12. Ads in background, instead of in inbox.

    Your ads in my inbox are the reason I prefer other email hosts.

    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!

  13. Stop spam

    I got the "NEW and IMPROVED YAHOO" and along with it I get 20-40 spam emails a day. What a freaking joke!

  17. There shouldn't be dating ads in my e-mail

    There was an ad in my e-mail and it said someone was looking at my profile. I clicked on it and it said my computer had a virus. this needs to be addressed. Luckily I was able to go to my task manager and stop the process. You should check these ads before they should be allowed.
