AOL Outage in Walthamstow, Greater London, England

AGREED! Every kid except me had nice shiny internet...we were stuck with that shitty AOL dialup that we were only allowed to use to play Cartoon Network games on if we were good 🥴

@AOLSupportHelp We have been going around in circles and the reason I’ve tweeted my issue is I can’t get anywhere because we’ve done all the security Q’s and still 0 - I need to speak with a human being.....

@aolmail I’ve been attempting to retrieve my wife’s AOL password for the past 10 or more emails with your supposed email support. Its merry go round getting nowhere. Please assist.

@AOL unable to sign into email for last week. No response from customer services. No one to talk to either😡😡Absolute joke. Important emails that I cannot access. AOL can you please get on to this. Beyond frustrating.

@reece_dinsdale The other two are "Welcome to AOL: you're connected!" and "Goodbye...th-that's it." Damn I need to put these on my new laptop!

@neilperkin You'd think they could find a fix. This used to happen with all AOL accounts showing up as 'Virginia' 20 years ago!

@teleject @meyerweb It kinda does though... With MSN Explorer (yes that was a thing in 2001, competing with AOL) we enabled "toast notifications" and the name was because "the little thing popped like the toast on the screensavers." Real toast never does that. It sits there. It sometimes Burns.

@1womanworkforce If he’s working from the aol ap I would delete it and reload. We had a problem with aol a while ago. The old Ap wasn’t working. Change the password just in case on your web version.

I was told by a rep ref. AOL: "it's a very old platform.." as if that was an excuse. If it doesn't work, they shouldn't take my money. @TalkTalk is a useless outfit too. I was called for months by fake Indian call centres after their data hack. My home internet sucks. @AOL @Ofcom

Utterly useless service from AOL/Yahoo/TalkTalk yet again following my complaint reference the breakdown/failure of their systems. So irritating when you pay for a service and don't get it. I was told by a rep ref. AOL: "it's a very old platform.." as if that was an excuse. @AOL

Some of you never had a 1 hour per day parental control limit on your AOL account and it shows

My direct debit to @TalkTalkTV I think will have the same broadband width they expect me to pay for . ZERO. WORST SERVICE EVER ITS LIKE AOL DIAL UP.

@alice Nah but I reckon a shit tonne of people still do In America AOL still make over half a billion from dial up subscribers* * This may not be true

AOL was the shit

@AOLSupportHelp hello. All my old emails have disappeared. Is there a problem with your servers?

@AOL Some idiot has incorrectly put down my email address as their recovery email address. How can I prevent you from repeatedly emailing me about verification codes?

@aolmail Hi, my AOL email isn’t working, it’s a first for me, is there anyone to help with this?

@LSI_SilverFast Your product activation process is among the worst experiences I've ever had 'activating' software since the advent of dial-up modems. Straight out of a 1997 AOL CD-ROM.

@AOLSupportHelp When I try to sign in it says my Sorry we do not recognize this email.

@AOL They should never have been allowed in in the first place.

@InternationalO Yep **** Twitter I’m heading back to AOL chat rooms on the dial up

@SoccerBarista Don’t feel bad @RobStoneONFOX I still have mine. It’s for spam but it’s still in use. #yougotmail #aol

I swear @BankofAmerica you are terrible! Made a phone payment to my loan, all info repeated back to me was correct, said pay it, and it said it would send a conf. to my Aol account. I don’t have an aol email on file! Now my money has been taken but not applied!!!

....in front of Mission PD, appearing to be a mobbing, including a death threat issued to do to my youngest sibling what was done to Bo, Nite1 Mike of AOL who perps claimed is Mafia, which I never said any such thing. This was

@SnarkyMommy78 @MissZindzi This is why my babies will be homeschooled. I’m not going to stand for the disrespect from people who’ve never had to wait for an AOL online Free 50-hour CD to come in the mail so they cof use AIM.

@alex Perfectly timed with last week's Down Detector AOL outage notification

@FastCoDesign Full disclosure: I've been using my original AOL screen name in Slack and driving my coworkers mad for the last few weeks in honor of the package. And now I never want to go back
