  3. Change to GMail. Hassle free, reliable & never spams your contacts on your behalf.

  7. I use hotmail, can't stand BT Yahoo or anything to do with AOL either

  8. I use BT Yahoo for personal/family stuff, gmail as a back up to my work email, and hotmail for daft stuff or if I'm signing up for any websites etc

  11. They reckon my account had been compromised/hacked (their words) and put a block on the account. And now I can't send emails for 48 hours and I needed to send a very important email this evening.

    It's just been a pain to sort and BT do their utmost to obfuscate. Twats.

  12. I understand where you're coming from with that, however, if there has been some sort of hacking you're better off having it blocked rather than maybe losing personal/banking info etc. Could you not send it from another of your emails with a covering note explaining why it's not from your Yahoo account?

  13. I have done but it confuses things somewhat.

  14. Very true, but security of your personal data is possibly more important.

  15. I get it, kylie only knows of your yahoo email account, and Danii you hotmail, so confusion would reign.

  19. My Yahoo account was hacked a couple of times this year, and with a little digging it turned out it was the mobile app i had on my phone which was the culprit, and well known, once i deleted the app and used a generic email app all has been fine.

    It turned out i had logged in from Mexico, panama, Russia and Spain all on the same day, but this was not flagged up as unusual behavior:rolleyes:

    If anyone is running the yahoo app on their phones, it is not worth the hassle, delete it and use a generic one.

  20. Those winkers at Yahoo have changed my Yahoo profile for some new fancypants version I never asked for or wanted?? :mad:

    Happened last night, assumed some sort of temp. version but no, google searches say a lot of people have been "upgraded" :rolleyes:
