    @yahoomail - I tried connecting regarding an account issue, what is the helpline number for your customer support? Is there any email address which I can use to reach out to support? Please take this as a feedback, reaching your technical support system is very difficult.

  • oldjanie Old Janie (@oldjanie) reported

    @YahooCare Thanks for replying. I only saw your reply now, and I've sent you a private message as requested. I access my Yahoo Mail account mostly from my Macbook Pro laptop, using Firefox browser. Googling to find a solution to my problem has been no help.

  • KentHuffman Kent Huffman (@KentHuffman) reported

    To @YahooMail and @YahooCare: Your e-mail service was definitely down for almost 4 hours yesterday! You didn't notice that? Lots of us certainly did...

    .@ArwaM your article helped me feel a bit better tonight. You see I went to login to my old @yahoo mail account to see if I could find some old pictures of my son. When I did, I found my mailbox emptied. They had apparently deleted all of my e-mails forever.

  • tvjames tvjames is still disappointed 😷🇺🇲 (@tvjames) reported

    @YahooCare I can provide all the information you need here, no need for a DM. Don't help me, help everyone. Account: ALL Product: Yahoo Mail Problem: Too much spam in the inbox instead of the spam filter (or blocked outright)

  • rochash2 rochash (@rochash2) reported

  • spacepantherart Johnny 💫COMMISSIONS ON HIATUS💫 (@spacepantherart) reported

    @YahooCare @yahoomail I've been trying to get into my old email for days now, but even though I know the login and password it won't let me in cause I can't remember the answer to a security question and I can't even get help because you locked support behind a paywall.

  • Sam14Nov Sam (@Sam14Nov) reported

    Unable to set fingerprint login on my account @YahooCare. Can you please check? Using the new Yahoo Mail on website, issue still persists. Please note that this I'm trying on my mobile browser & I believe it should work

    @yahoomail team, i was trying to login to my old account. I have my password but I don’t have access to email to which verification code has been sent. How can i login to my account?

  • AlanScotleather Alan Scott (@AlanScotleather) reported

    @Yahoo Your company should take responsibility and post that there is problems with Yahoo mail. Ignoring the problem does nothing but cause issues with your customers.

  • johnscott701 johnscott70 (@johnscott701) reported

    @Yahoo Yahoo has been hacked. Yahoo mail has not worked in days. They will not respond to complaints. Fix your stuff or we will delete all our accounts.

  • aademos1 Enitan Adenle (@aademos1) reported

    @LagosBode @Gidi_Traffic Why do Nigerians like focusing on little things and turn them into big issues. What difference does it make if a governor makes use of Yahoo mail or personal mail. Kindly, focus on serious issues.

    @roseaann0627 @ChelseaASTERISK @yahoomail Send me a direct message request to help you with your issue

  • Sara_Tonyn Sara Tonyn 🌊 I don't suffer fools gladly. NO DMs. (@Sara_Tonyn) reported

    The only thing worse than Yahoo Mail is trying to get any help from Yahoo to fix problems. A billion dollar business who hires dumbasses to “fix“ problems! If Yahoo gets any worse, it’ll be tied with AT&T as the worst companies to deal with.

  • da_D_oh da D oh (@da_D_oh) reported

    Hey @google, your sign in verification system and recovery protocols simply don't work. And your customer service simply is grossly inadequate....because it's non-existent! Nice business model. I'm switching to yahoo mail services.

  • Kohaku_chii Amber 🌺 (@Kohaku_chii) reported

  • fletcyer fiz🥫 (@fletcyer) reported

  • BathNovelAward The Bath Novel Awards (@BathNovelAward) reported

    @YahooCare hello, our customers who use yahoo mail are reporting a common difficulty to us. What’s the best way to log the issue?

  • armarchus Arius Armarchus Debut 6/14 (@armarchus) reported

    @GJerrytje @Queen_cassmac Well Yahoo mail had a problem where they run ads that look like emails in your inbox. Well some of those ads were those 'your computer has a virus' scams. Where you'd call the number and they'd charge you buttloads of money to install AVG. After that they were not worth it.

  • JamesyAndrew James Andrew (@JamesyAndrew) reported

    @yahoomail I tried to log into my email. Password was suddenly not working. So I click “forgot password”. Sent me in a circle. Now you want me to pay premium to reset my password? Buh-bye after 21+ years. #gmail here I come!

  • Richvii1 Rich vii🇳🇬🇬🇭 (@Richvii1) reported

    @CorazonKwamboks I think is gmail because yahoo mail is too slow
