I signed up for one of AOL's free trial offers, just because we were going on vacation and couldn't use our internet provider where we were going. Now, they won't believe me when I say I want to cancel it. I've written two letters, following the directions on AOL's website, and they still won't kill the account. I expect to be billed any day now. Sounds like consumer fraud, at the least, to me.

AOL is a fraudulent
Organization. I wonder why anyone
Likes Them.
Stop
Using That stupid
Company. Let them outsource to
Kenya, for all I care.
STAY AWAY FROM AOL!

I dumped AOL 6 years ago after 2 miserable years with them. As far as I*m concerned they*re worthless. I had to buy a new computer after I left them. I could never recommend them.

All anti-spam and anti-virus utilities look "inside" at the content of the message. If it didn't it would be useless.
AOL was a great thing, back in the days before the WWW caught on. I had a five digit member number for AOL. It is true now, though, that they strain for relevance in the age of the WWW. AOL will continue to decline for the next five to ten years, and then quietly slip away...

AOL is an internet horror show on many levels. It's designed to ensnare and addict technical idiots.
Stay far away from it.

Actually, the problem with AOL seems to be that the business types who run it focused on the bottom line. Their only real interest was how many ads they could pile on.
AOL has never had any decent technicians. Their software is full of bugs. Their beta testing is laughable.
I'm sure this was a business decision. Users were complaining about spam, junk mail, and porn, so they have probably been trying to block some of it to prevent these people from bailing out of AOL. They do NOTHING to educate their users, so they are totally unable to fend for themselves.
So, I don't believe there's anything malign about this: just greed, fear, and incompetence.

Why would ANYONE subscribe to ANY service like AOL? Why not just fire up via internet service provider or cable modem or whatever, and cruise the world? What in the world does AOL or any of those services offer that you can't get FREE by cruising?

I got a free AOL CD package in the mail. It went straight in the trash.
I have never subscribed to AOL and never will. Even back when the Internet was in its infancy I still went with a local provider.
AOL is irrelevant. There are literally dozens of ISPs available for consumers to choose from, some of them offering basic dial-up for under $10.
To: Stoat
AOL is consistently on the side of evil, unless you beat them back. Fortunately, there are many other alternatives today, so there is NO excuse to still patronize them, IMHO.

AOL is like bloodsucking leech. Why people use it baffles me.
This is bizarre, Mr. Langa is practically my neighbor. Didn't even know his company existed.
