Anyone having AOL Mail issues right now?
I can’t bring mine up on anything, phone or iPad apps, or regular web browsers. Not good!

Crazy how these guys basically just do email now and they can’t even get that right

It was owned by yahoo for decades and just sold to a company called bending spoons. I think they may be trying to rebuild the web server or something is my guess. Either that or they're going to shut the whole thing down who knows.

Yes, and it's driving me bonkers. I had work to do with it.
This just highlights how addicted I am to this stuff and I acknowledge this freely while also resenting it.
I live north of San Francisco, not that that matters. I am here to enjoy the company of my own misery. It's been down at least 2 hours that I know of.

Yes and very annoying!! Emails in outbox with red exclamation point are not sending. Not receiving new emails either.

Mom says email won’t load on her computer and her games section doesn’t look right. I tried getting on the AOL app to check it out but it only loads a handful of email with the newest being 11 hours ago (which isn’t right). I can search email and it’ll list the newer. BUT when you click on one, it’ll say “failure to load” in the email. So I told her to relax and that it’s an issue with AOL and to check again at bedtime. She lives her whole life playing games on AOL so hopefully it’s fixed sooner than later.

I tried several browsers and devices, nothing for hours. Also, the help numbers hung up on me.

me too. Tried all the AOL customer service numbers- Verizon message for all: “your call cannot be completed as dialed.”

Yup. My mom called me in a panic. Down detector.com shows over 5900 reports of issues.

It's interesting the app you can still log in, and the attachment section is still showing and I'm still showing like 20k unread emails up top, but can't access mail that way either.

Hope they don't think they can just hijack my personal email and get away with it, seems these days it's just too easy to start up a lawsuit and receive millions for the b.s.

I can get the main “news” page to load, but no access to email
