AOL Outage in Kingston upon Thames, Greater London, England

@liampowersjr @NorthmanTrader @Tesla Fully agree by the way, Tesla is strange, but I think some of this isn't just cars but their battery technology....never understood it myself. Never understood AOL time Warner, even wrote a paper on it for my MBA and got the lowest mark out of all my papers.

@sigmasports I’m doing my best guys, bear with me. I’m doing an online chat with AOL online support and have Ask Jeeves fired up in another browser.

The first PlayStation came out, and Macs transitioned to Power PC. AOL is launched. Amazon was founded. Microsoft announces it will no longer sell or support the MS-DOS operating system separately from Microsoft Windows

@KwakuMMNT 112 by default. Jagged Edge were broadcasting to us using 2001 AOL dial up. Horrible signal.

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!

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!!!

@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

@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 🥴

@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

@AOLSupportHelp @25DollarSupport So a year after the incident you are commenting that I am helping the scammers by providing you a trouble report. Nothing like a timely response folks. If you weren’t blocking Thunderbird access to e-mail maybe I wouldn’t be sending you trouble reports.

@PaulnotBrian Yup **** Dell though, Emachines on AOL Lmao.

@TheJonnyB_ @DailyMailUK And just like that, aol chat was over. The dial up didn't hang itself.

@Chip192203 @AOLSupportHelp @aolmail We can help you fix your email problem

If my phone autocorrects "keyboard" to "keyword" one more ******* time I'm gonna steam roll it and take a **** on the remains. I know my phone is old but I didn't know it was still in the AOL mindset with the goddamn keywords.

"Is this the crown of Aol?" "Yes." "I never understood how the king ended up in #exile." "The people realized he liked more being the one giving them freedom than them actually being free, and he realized they didn't appreciate their rights being treated as a concession." #vss365

I deactivated my Instagram when I got a new, white iphone, new number & thus, quite obviously a new life only to find myself re-immersed in Twitter & using a ******* anonymous Instagram account tied to an AOL email address so I can post and troll all ******** I want... oops

@LASurfreport @GraniteGods @ripdicktrickle While on an AOL dial up internet service.

Not me calling aol support at 2am to gain access to my old email address so I can log into MySpace

I've been seeing a lot of "I'm old enough that..." here lately. Well, *I'm* old enough that I remember using dial-up AOL - and I was a Livejournal early adopter. We invented broadband cuz dinosaurs kept knocking the POTS lines down.
