AOL Outage in New Southgate, Greater London, England

@NW6Rd You've just reminded me my contract is up with my absolutely appalling @SkyUK broadband. It's so slow it's like AOL dial-up

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!

CompuServe when I first got online in 1995, MSN Messenger, the very occasional foray into Usenet. Tried AOL, ICQ, a few others. But never enjoyed them. Had both AIM and Yahoo Meseenger But only very rarely used them.

@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.

@londongirluk @AOLSupportHelp Still not working 😠

@londongirluk @AOLSupportHelp I'm the same Julie. The app I'm using won't let me sign in

@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

@aolmailhelp hello, my mum needs to delete her AOL email. We can't sign in in order to delete it, please help - thank you.

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?

That shit isn't that hard and it's not that expensive - that's the stuff I've been doing since 2004. And before that when I was at AOL, it was good at moderation too - less content, but also less tech and fewer employees. It's all relative. It's about motivation.

@gabegutierrez Fix your post bro, the moronic Right who still use AOL and call their computer "the machine" can't figure out you posted the wrong clip, then posted the correct one. Delete the mistake so the rubes don't get confused.

Not bad for a bartender with an AOL blog.

@sillyposts @shaheerkkkk @gmail been using it for years also you should know gmail on my android no longer sending messages to my gmail acct on my desktop can send from the mobile to AOL desktop but NOT gmail desktop this is a NEW issue

@smego155 @BTS_twt In the early to mid 1990s, I wrote a sports column on AOL. I received free internet service as compensation.

KC fans, hope you have a solid Monday. I rooted for the Montana, Allen, Neil Smith, Derrick Thomas Chiefs (even had an AOL name DT58). Kong’s of 13-3, get a bye, lose. Nice to see KC get to the Super Bowl. Now I root for a pathetic franchise that passed on Mahomes. Bear down!

@Chris_Attalus Back in the day of horrible dial up and AOL Chatrooms, I met a fellow photography and gaming nerd in one of those rooms. After a few months of talking, I packed my stuff, told my parents I was moving from Texas to Virginia. Still together 14 years later. 🥰

@jaci_WWG1WGA It's actually AOL chatrooms where the.main discussion for the Boogaloo are going down. And Friendster.

@bryce Only thing that comes to mind quickly is AOL. Tried to monetize too much too fast. Built a huge lead and had it crumble down on top of them. Could have run the entire internet, but now they are an afterthought.

@MrDash109 Considering his big break was setting his scam software company and his broken software to AOL. He conned them, and he tries to con everyone else.
