    For anyone who's wondering, Yahoo email customer support is among the worst I've ever experienced. Utterly unable to assist and unwilling to provide any avenues to resolve a simple storage issue that doesn't cost money. Trash service. @Yahoo @yahoomail #garbagesupport #SHAME

    @YahooCare @yahoomail @yahoo Good morning Yahoo! Why aren't I receiving text messages (SMS) to my mobile phone number in Türkiye to recover my email address? Is Yahoo Mail shutting down? Why are you so indifferent?

    Here's an example of bad overengineering. The @Yahoo Mail app has started sorting emails you frequently delete into bundles so you can delete them faster - which are all hidden under a drop-down from the rest of your emails, adding an extra step to go through to delete emails one by one. It doesn't matter if you regularly read these emails, they're all lumped together anyways. Now here are the really annoying parts about that - one, there's no opt-out for the bundling, meaning you're stuck with that ****** sorting feature. Two, when you delete emails manually, on occasion, emails in this group will completely disappear. So far, they've come back later, but this is an enormous pain in the *** that no one asked for and can't opt out of. So why? What's the point of this? Why does Yahoo mail insist on these autosorting features like this that constantly hide away emails, the entire reason you'd use the service?

    @YahooCare Hi @YahooCare, on iPhone using Yahoo Mail v26.13.0: folders (Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Spam, Trash, Archive) are inaccessible, and the new folder switcher (Inbox icon with ↑↓ bottom-left) is unresponsive. Please fix or add a classic folder view. Cheers 🙏🇦🇺

    @YahooCare @Todd_Spence @YahooCare the Android Yahoo mail app update ruined the search function. I can no longer edit my search terms and have to start over every time. Please fix this!" I search my email using search strings to find specific things, people, and correspondence. I was able to modify my search strings and quickly try the search again. Can no longer do that. Now have to type out a whole new search string every time I need to modify it....terrible. Productivity Killer. #EmailSearch #YahooMail

    from Yahoo Mail, and most of the information you guys are bringing up is in the public domain. Then again you people are doing like the problem in ADC will move away if Amupitan is gone. But like 2023 this seems like a war to you guys and everything is fair in war

    DO NOT expect @YahooCare to help resolve ANY issue especially with your email!! These incompetent ******** will only re-route you to their ****** website where they’ll just repeat previous inefficient steps with ZERO resolution. What pieces of ****!! #YahooMail #YahooEmail
