    @yahoomail so apparently your recent update blocks users from accessing their email accounts. When can we expect a fix?

    @sidrachain Weldon for the great work you are doing. Those of us who registered with Yahoo mail are still finding it difficult to login to our kyc port. Please I suggest you re-introduce the login with password+google authentication for us, so we too can be part of the new system upgrade.

    @yahoomail we've been unable to open the Yahoo Mail app for four days. We've tried every troubleshooting step but it's still not working. Could you please explain why and help resolve this?

    Ray Ellis (@RunOnTheMind) reported

    @yahoomail @MrNJ39 Agreed. This version is rubbish. The font is dreadful and is counter intuitive. The previous version was fine. Nothing wrong with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It wasn’t. Please give us the old, good version back.

    After forcing its storage down to 15 GB @Yahoo forced the new UI of yahoo mail on me! Enough is enough ... time to leave. 🤬

    Most people "fled" from using Yahoo mail once "Yahoo Yahoo" became the moniker for Nigerian internet fraudsters and scammers. Occurred to me recently that I never had a problem with Yahoo and will probably create a Yahoo account again too. Gmail is stressing me out as well, constantly asking me to buy more storage.

    I don’t understand why Gmail keeps telling me to buy more storage or risk not receiving new emails. I’ve been using Yahoo Mail for over two decades and never had this kind of issue. Honestly, this is really frustrating.

    @yahoomail: Why do I delete emails, and then more emails magically appear that weren't there before? This has been a very annoying issue, and it risks overlooking important emails!

    @_renatov @thesamparr Yahoo runs a huge digital media and advertising business. Core products: Yahoo Mail (still one of the biggest email services), Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Sports/Fantasy, News, and Search. They make most of their billions from targeted online ads. In 2026 they're doubling down on AI with "Yahoo Scout" to turn user data from mail/search/content into smarter ad targeting and answers. Still very much alive and profitable.

    Nightmare today, my yahoo mail has suddenly stopped working, won’t let me sign in, page is just freezing. Everything else is working, so I know it’s not my iPad. Help!

  • polarisraven13
    Chance Alexander Ramm (@polarisraven13) reported

    This is crazy, and it just stopped being an issue about 2 minutes ago. Idk what was going on. Maybe I was being routed through a bad sector, and the node was refusing me entry. @yahoo @yahoomail. I am not tech illiterate, I just don't care for it.

    @YahooCare @yahoomail I have been having issue (since 24th March) with newly created emails. I sent you a DM and was assured someone will get in touch. This was on 8th April. Nobody contacted me. I sent you yet another reminder DM on 13th April, but no reply received whatsoever.

    @YahooCare my Yahoo Mail app has signed me out of 2 accounts and won't let me log back in. I am defintely using the correct passwords and everything still works fine in the web version. Is this a known issue?
