iPhone & New Yahoo Email
I recently received the notice that my mailbox was transitioned, and I duly signed in to Yahoo to begin the process. The process seemed to complete correctly; my old messages seemed to all be there, though there were a few extra folders created. I went on my iPhone to remove the old Cox account and add the new Yahoo account. This also seemed to complete correctly, and I could see old messages begin to sync to my Mail app. That was this past Sunday. As of this morning, I seem to only have messages from the last 30 days in addition to messages through the end of 2019. Just now, I scrolled through the old message list to see it download 2019 through about 2021, but nothing else is there except for the last 30 days. Was this working as expected? Is there a limit to how many messsages my phone can retrieve from the server per day? All the emails are there when I log into mail.yahoo.com, they just don't seem to want to download. I haven't tried doing this on my Outlook desktop client yet...36Views0likes2CommentsCox sporadic internet service.
I quit cox tv, and went with a steaming service,(roku), or online with my computer, or ota signals. Recently I,(stupidly), followed cox advice, and got a cox modem, to replace the modem and router. Now I spend several minutes everyday trying to get the roku to connect with the cox modem/router. When I explained the problem to cox, I was told that the best plan, was to buy a NEW CABLE TV PLAN FROM COX, and that it would only be an additional $72.00 a month. When I informed the representative, that the issue DID NOT START UNTIL AFTER I STARTED USING COX EQUIPMENT, the representative suggested a new internet plan, and an additional cable tv plan, that would only raise my monthly by $120.00.20Views0likes0CommentsEmail transition forced upon us, is subjecting me to uninvited ads on the Yahoo mail app!
This email transition has opened the door for ads from Yahoo. The only way to stop them is to subscribe to Yahoo +, that has an additional cost. After being a customer for more than 20 years, I'll be looking at other options for internet providers.109Views2likes9CommentsCox Hot Spot running off my modem
Cox is using my Cox rented modem/router as a hot spot for anyone who parks by my house. I went to Privacy Preferences and Disabled Hotspot but it still shows up. It is an unprotected network using my subscription, my electricity to run their "free" spots. I now have a homeless man living his car in front of my house - I think because of this wifi (he is on the phone all the time). He comes in his car at 8pm and leaves at 9am. I called Cox and they said all their boxes have this. They told me to just turn it off when he is around. So I pay and get no service from 8pm onwards. The only solution is to buy your own router which i will do. Or better yet, switch to another service which i guess in my area will be Frontier. This in my opinion, is unsafe for the public and is basically making me pay for services to other people - theft. Cox is the worst I am writing this here to warn other people. Also Cox told me that is the only way to lodge a complaint.66Views0likes4Commentserror message "there was a problem connecting to pop.mail.yahoo.com".
I'm trying to add my new Yahoo email account to my Gmail email account and I keep getting this error: "there was a problem connecting to pop.mail.yahoo.com". I've checked my cox email address and my Yahoo password and scanned a number of online documents but I cannot find a solution. Any help would be appreciated84Views0likes6CommentsCould it get any worse?
First off, Cox is not my friend in the digital age or any other time. The slogan, which they undoubtably paid a fortune for, doesn’t mean jack when everything they do to their customers screams the opposite. Just days after the Cox-Yahoo! email disaster our internet has been down for the last 20 hours. Absolutely put the skids on an important project I can’t do anywhere else as all critical files are on my desktop system. My email is still not working right, of course, with about half of my emails not coming through. I know that many of you are just as angry and frustrated as I am. However, please don’t take this out on Cox rank-and-file employees. They are not the ones making these terrible decisions, it is management in Atlanta. That is where the C-level jackasses dwell, insulated from the fallout of their indefensible business practices. A perfect example is pawning us off to Yahoo! then washing their hands of the immense problems we continue to deal with as a result. Pleas be courteous and civil to the Cox rank/and-file. It Is not their fault. I’m sure many of them have the same level of contempt for Cox as we do.69Views0likes3CommentsAddress exclusive promotion. Need help.
Got an ad from cox for 1gig fiber internet including unlimited data and panoramic WiFi for $50 a month for 24 months when you have cox mobile. Cox system won’t pull up the special price and 4 cox reps I talked to don’t help me at all because the system won’t show that price how the heck do I get some real help and get the promotion applied. Is there a special department these employees don’t know about or something how can they not have knowledge to help me I sent them pictures still no help. Anyone know who to talk to?42Views0likes3Comments
