Pop Up DEMANDING Me to Unblock Ads with 15 Second Timer

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

EVERY single time I log onto my yahoo email, there is a giant window with an emoji letting me know I have an ad-blocker. It DEMANDS I either take down my ad-blocker, which applies to several sights I visit, or I pay $3+ to use ad-free yahoo email.

Not choosing either option I close the window, which then literally displays a timer counting down 15 seconds until the window goes away. This pops up not just every time I open my email inbox page, but every, single time anything on the page changes. For example, if I am deleting an email or simply clicking the back button, the new page will display the popup about ads. If I refresh the page, the popup occurs.

If I click on a different folder, such as trash, spam, drafts, etc, the popup occurs. I have had my yahoo email account since 2001, so nearing 21 years. I already have to put up with infuriating ads on other websites, even with an ad blocker, as I'm sure many of us do. I will deliberately go out of my way to avoids ads because that is how intrusive I feel they are.

They are an attack on the senses partially because they are never for anything I want to see (I'm looking at your disgusting ear wax and ugly clothes, Google). So after 20+ years, Yahoo is shamefully wasting my time with the most appalling, non-respectful popup I've ever had the displeasure of seeing over and over and over again. And to demand money, after ALL these months into the pandemic, at the start of the holidays, with more bills, and rent maintenance going up in the new year, with less work and lower paychecks, they want me to pay, just so I can go ad free after all these years?? SHAME SHAME SHAME on you Yahoo.

This is so disrespectful after all these years of service. You know this is awful when you engineered this pop up, leaving the user with these 3 options, the close window being the 3rd with the inappropriate 15 seconds delay. SHAME SHAME SHAME on you!!! What in the absolute *** would prompt you to take this kind of a dirty action?

Regarding the price, even Apple doesn't charge this much for cloud storage.

This is an utter disgrace Yahoo. Change it now.

My yahoo hacked

. I have tried many times and still do not know why Yahoo mail does not accept my password which I used for years. The point is that my mail is getting some important mail. I can tell you who was written to me to prove that yahoo is mine. By the way, I tried to call the free number in US but unfortunately no reply and that cost me money. Why yahoo assistance page is putting a number that does not answer.

Disagree with their comments stance

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Yahoo has once again blocked comments , thereby imposing censorship against comments that are against their bleeding heart liberal views. If we can't have free exchange of views then why even have a news section in the first place ( poorly written articles with horrible grammar and spelling and always slanted to the left ) Disgusting

Anybody Else Besides Me Sick Of The Kardashians?

About everyday now yahpoop keeps publoshing worthless news stories about the worthless Kardashians! Or justin beiber! I could care less about either one of them. The only reason why I go to yahoo is to check my email and that is it. I wished yahoo had and app where I could block these worthless news stories. Yahoo reads more like one of those supermarket tabloids you see in the store!

Old account

So almost a year ago i reset my phone without thinking and lost all my data, I wasnt logged into any email on my laptop, and my accounts were on account key. so I didnt have the option to click account key, to put in any numbers sent to my account, and since weve moved a bunch of times I had no idea where my old number was so I didnt have access to that either (I may have been able to if u could still use my password instead but thats not an option). I havent been able to log into my yahoo accounts, my facebooks and other things it was connected to. Is there any way I could please have my account back. My account is - Hannahparisc@***.com

What web browser are you using? I still Firefox some times Chrome.

I always use Ad Block Ultimate or Ad Block plus add-on.

Works great and it retains my sanity. Message to the owners of this site: I'm not robot!
