Why do people call AOL customer service?

People call AOL for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Help setting up new accounts

  • Help changing or canceling accounts

  • Address billing issues

  • Report fraud or abuse

  • Technical support and troubleshooting

  • Best Practices for Calling AOL Customer Service

There are several things you can do to ensure that your call to AOL goes smoothly and that you get a quick resolution to your issue:

Before you call, make sure you have the correct number. AOL still supports Netscape and there is a different number for these accounts. In addition, there are other numbers for support in Spanish and TTY (services for the hearing impaired).

Call during support hours. Technical support is 24/7 for paid subscribers. Other requests are handled during different days and times.

Have the documentation pertinent to your case on hand. If you're calling with a technical issue, please be at your computer or have your device handy so you and the representative can troubleshoot the issue. If you're calling about a billing problem, have your statements or bills nearby.

Have a way to take notes during your call. These can be useful if you have to escalate your case.

How do consumers feel about calling AOL customer service?

Customers are reasonably satisfied with AOL's customer service. As a legacy Internet company, AOL has a lot of experience working with non-technical people. AOL also values its customers and wants to keep them with the company.

What kind of problems can the AOL customer service representative solve?

As a fully online business, AOL customer service representatives can resolve most issues, including billing issues, technical issues, and fraud issues. They can also process appeals of suspended and terminated accounts.

What can't be solved with a call to AOL customer service?

Due to the social nature of AOL, it is impossible for the company to arbitrate disputes between members. Unless another member's conduct violates AOL's terms of service, an AOL representative may not suspend or remove that person from the platform.

Another issue that an AOL customer service representative will not be able to resolve is if AOL software or its platform is incompatible with your computer, devices, or operating system. While the representative can help you troubleshoot to determine if the technical issues are due to an incompatibility, they may only be able to suggest a possible workaround or use a different device or operating system.

What should you do if you have a failed call with AOL?

If you're on the phone with an AOL representative and feel like your question wasn't answered or your problem wasn't resolved, don't give up. You may still have options.

Review your call notes. If you didn't take notes, write or type what you remember of the conversation. Please note any areas of potential miscommunication so that you can address these issues on your next call to AOL.

Then call AOL again. The next AOL customer service representative you talk to may have more experience or better training. This could allow you to understand her concerns and provide a satisfactory solution.

If the second call doesn't resolve your situation, please try contacting AOL through their other customer service options. AOL offers a live chat option, along with email support, both of which have the benefit of giving you a transcript of your conversation. Another option is to ask AOL for help through your social media accounts.
