Yahoo! Mail Issues Reports

  • AugustaKlumpke Augusta Déjerine-Klumpke (@AugustaKlumpke) reported

    @SamGuichelaar Move to Gmail or Outlook. I am not being flippant. After trying for years to fix yahoo mail I realised that the best thing to do was to move over to gmail. Spam detection is more of a server side issue, you can’t truly fix it yourself.

  • NormanCharles66 Norman Charles (@NormanCharles66) reported

    @yahoomail down? I can't access any of my emails and people's addresses don't pop up when I start typing them.

  • The_S_Express Selena (@The_S_Express) reported

    @YahooCare An ongoing issue with Yahoo Mail is my account acts out of sync between an app and the web. Yesterday, e.g., as often done, I saved a file there from my 📱 to download on a 💻but had to wait ≈ 13 minutes before it appeared in the latter's Drafts. Explanation/solution?

  • Marathonpundit Marathon Pundit (@Marathonpundit) reported

    Working on moving over to gmail full time as Yahoo f*cked up my current account--they can't fix it. DM me for the gmail address if you need it. #Yahoo #gmail #yahoomail

  • IrishTea1 IrishTea1 (@IrishTea1) reported

    Well this is news @Verizon, @YahooMail. I switched my phone two weeks ago. @YahooMail refuses me access to my email. Even though I answered all prompts correctly, NO GO! They want my driver's license number to access my account. That is not happening. Fix it!

  • qed57 LostRaceOfMars (@qed57) reported

    Anyone else having trouble with #YahooMail on a Chromebook?

  • RebeccaPetruck Rebecca Petruck (@RebeccaPetruck) reported

    @yahoomail, the generate an app password has been unavailable for days. Is a fix on the near horizon? I use this for work. Thanks,

  • cubedvggts3 Cubed Cinder (@cubedvggts3) reported

    Yahoo Mail used to have a problem where old and long unused accounts would suddenly contact me with malware links (of course I didn't click them). Now it's happening on DeviantArt, only with links begging me to buy NFTs. Glad to know some things never change. *rolls eyes*

  • ckft82 TeaCup (@ckft82) reported

    @yahoomail The weirdest thing happened. I copied the email I wrote, that was sent back to me, to send to a different email address. When I pasted it, it showed a layer on top of what I copied and pasted. The layer was a previously view email. It's probably a glitch.

  • GfleischerC CGfleischer (@GfleischerC) reported

    @Yahoo @Apple Dear Yahoo mail- you have one star; & allegedly thousands of unresolved complaints! No contact availability- unless customer wants to upgrade into paid tech support. No vehicle for resolution of Yahoo mail issues. Nothing in original language re $ #TechSupport

  • Herbert_Viana Herbert Viana (@Herbert_Viana) reported

    @YahooCare As a Yahoo Mail user since 2009, I'm disappointed in the support you guys provide. I still have the problem reported in the DM and no one comes up with a solution.

  • PsychoTey_art Tey🔞 (@PsychoTey_art) reported

    I do not receive a commissioner's emails for some reason? I hope Yahoo mail has a temporary bug/error. I've never had this happen before, no idea what could be the problem...

  • Ashrafsohrab1 Ashraf sohrab (@Ashrafsohrab1) reported

    @YahooCare I have a yahoo mail account. Currently I am unable to sign in. Whenever I try to sign in,it tels me to verify your account. And the alternate email/mobil no, that show on screen are not mine. Then What I have to do

  • Fkharrell Frank Harrell (@Fkharrell) reported

    @yahoomail What is going on with yahoo? Everytime I try to login, I get wrong password. I change my password. I try to login and get the message.

  • MallIbadan Ibadan Mall (@MallIbadan) reported

  • sailorwild Wildstrike (@sailorwild) reported

    @MojangSupport I have been trying and trying to migrate my account but for the life of me it will not send a recovery email to my yahoo mail. My yahoo mail seems to work properly I am so lost for what the issue is and Yahoo hasn't been helpful at all.

  • MichaelKFreeman MKF (@MichaelKFreeman) reported

    @yahoo Since I cannot message you privately, I will have to complain about these issues publicly. It is ridiculous that Yahoo mail attachments cannot be downloaded. I click the download button and nothing happens.

  • ukgirlinsf mary french (@ukgirlinsf) reported

    I need my Yahoo Notes back but don’t have the patience to call Yahoo Mail a third time & go over the issue again w/someone I don’t understand! They should have a technical support office in the USA (all about saving $$!) but bad customer service. Their automated robots useless!

  • CsMuia Charles Muia (@CsMuia) reported

    @Yahoo what does rate limited mean? getting the error when attempting to access yahoo mail.

  • twolettuhs äpplëjüïcë (@twolettuhs) reported

    @yahoomail your service is garbage. Won’t let me reset my email but it says you know my information was part of a data breach. Fix it. Your ****** security led to a breach. Your help service costs money. How are you still a business

  • RabelaisA11y Alcofribas Nasier (@RabelaisA11y) reported

    @singhk_uttam Not yet, but you soon might be. @yahoomail has become virtually unusable in recent days. You can't even scroll down the list of folders anymore.

  • unikunka Daniel Kunka (@unikunka) reported

    I know this is like an old man yelling about the squirrels but is anyone else having trouble with Yahoo mail sending stuff to their spam folder? It's been killing me the last few weeks.

  • Trew1Trew roberta trew (@Trew1Trew) reported

    Am I the only one annoyed with the miniscule font when writing emails on Yahoo Mail on Iphone 13? You can enlarge READING emails with Apple Reader but not when writing. I have loved YahooMail but no one responds to this. Apple says it's Yahoo's problem @YahooCare aol Gmail ok

    @yahoomail down?

  • TravelinY TravelinYank 🇺🇦 (@TravelinY) reported

    @yahoomail You need to fix whatever you’ve done in the past few weeks to litter my inbox with spam and send my actual correspondence to spam, or I’m abandoning your service after decades.

  • glorympia I AM_GLORY (@glorympia) reported

    @yahoomail website and mobile app down. Please help. Need to reply to important emails urgently @YahooCare @Yahoo
