AOL Webmail


I've grown very dissatisfied with AOL webmail in recent times. I don't have a problem with the advertising (I just blank it out), but I do object to the fact that the advertising has to be loaded before the email message. So, here I am, waiting for "spe.atdmt.com" to load - to load - to load. Which it does, after I have changed to another tab in my Firefox browser. And it only loads when I make that change. It therefore takes ages to read my emails, to the extent that I have now pressed Microsoft Outlook into service, which has no such problems. I'm going to link this complaint to the webmail guys, because I'm well p'd off.

  1. Love the cat!  I know what you mean about AOL... They even stuck another tab in my mailbox for advertising... I pay $10/mo to aol for their services, I don't know why they have to clutter up my desktop with "junk-mail"... Oh well, like you said, gotta try and block it out... Really, really, love that cat! ~Journey

  5. oh, goodluck with AOL. Hope you get a real live person to talk to... nowadays, their customer service is picked up/answers by workers from India or somewhere around there.
