AOL Outage in Bexleyheath, Greater London, England

When it first arrived — and I made a blog there within the first two months of its public existence — @tumblr was the near perfect blogging platform. Then AOL destroyed it. Now it’s a horrible jail where I can’t get rid of this dumb screen. Thanks @automatic.

Although I have re-installed @AOLSupportHelp on iPhone I am still receiving “wrong password” messages. Puzzling that all’s well on iPad & laptop! Help!!!

@aolmail @AOL @AOLSupportHelp having rectified the continual WRONG PASSWORD notice, today it’s back again but only on my iPhone 7+, not on my iPad which is working perfectly. HELP!

@AOLSupportHelp Hi Guys, password prompt now so frequent; every time I open my AOL email account. Please ask your engineers to fix quickly. Thanks so much.

Weird today on @AOL receiving all emails on iPhone but iPad still saying “wrong password”. Password same on both devices! Help!!!

Still having intermittent trouble sending/receiving emails on my @AOL account. Updated password on AOL via Safari; it works. Does not work through my normal email channel either sending or receiving. Systems don’t seem to share info - help!

@AOLSupportHelp Did send it but still having same problem!

@yungcontent And Bebo never sells to AOL

Recurring @AOL password problem; keeps telling me “incorrect password” again; had same problem a month ago. When I input password it is accepted for a short while then same message appears again; infuriating! HELP!!!

@AOL after weeks of “wrong password” still having major problems with AOL! Seems email & via Safari not joined up. Worrying as I’m in middle of negotiations! Help!

I’ve been with AOL all my internet life. Just recently it keeps telling me my password is wrong; I put the same password in again & it’s alright for a while. Today emails appear then suddenly vanish, is @AOL trying to dismiss me. Help!

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 🥴

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

@aviddy Inevitably, it wasn’t long before I venture down into the seedy world of AOL proggies and ascii art spamming. I downloaded Visual Basic to “make” my own bespoke proggie, but really that just meant importing someone else’s lib and choosing my own ascii art. Hah. This was ~96-98ish

@beatironblue @redsteeze I'd love to see the website but my AOL is down. Lol

My mama got our first computer in 98 and I only used it to AskJeeves **** like "xbrain yoyo tricks" and "ocarina of time water temple silver key" and by 99 I was spending hours a day in AOL chat rooms, AIM, IRC, battlenet, I was even playing MUDs. Everquest, DAoC.

Everyone is correct. The new @Facebook really sucks. No wonder everyone is leaving them for other pastures. I recall the same scenario happening in the old Yahoo and AOL companies. Esthetics over function is a great way to keep your job but not for keeping clients. #Facebook

@RuleXRP @3N0RYM Sorry bro, I use AOL, instant messaging is the ****

I'm never coming back to Discord ever again. That place is hell in the form of AOL Instant Messenger. Thank GOD I uninstalled it. People just hated me just because I had anger issues. Also, there was way too much drama. WAAAYY too goddamn much.

Say, what was the name of that Internet service you used to get CDs for in every computer mag? I am not even sure: AOL or CompuServe? I heard about an initiative to collect a million CDs and dump 'em at their headquarters' front door. Wonder, what happened.

@DorotheaLaster @AOL PD reform is in his plan if you read it. Things have always been bad, so you're saying Biden and his 47 years in office without changing nothing, pushing for wars to enrich contractors is going to even attempt to solve the problems in the black community? He'd rather outsource...

@KayinNasaki In the old days that's where you'd set up a gate and slap down anyone trying to get up there... but kids today, with their aol and such, you can't keep everyone from reaching the truth anymore.

@MilesKlee Spent a lot of time on AOL search looking for sites with Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura art in between watching every show on Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and emptying my local library of books
