SUMMARY

The discussion centers on persistent sign-in issues with AT&T email accounts, specifically those ending in @sbcglobal.net and @att.net. Users report being unable to maintain their sign-in status, requiring them to log in every two hours despite selecting the "keep sign-in for 2 weeks" option. This problem has been confirmed across multiple devices and browsers, indicating a broader issue likely related to Yahoo's management of AT&T email services. Users express frustration over the lack of effective support from the AT&T webpage.

TL;DR
Have to re-signin every two hours.
Hi

I started having problem in keeping my ATT @sbcglobal.net email sign in. It used to be able to choose keep sign in for 2 weeks, I don't have to re-signin for two weeks. But something happened and now I have to sign in every two hours or so even if I check the keep sign-in for two weeks. This happen on two different computers, I even use different browser and still this happened. The ATT webpage is of no help, it just go round and round. Anyone know how to resolve this?

Thanks

Alan

It's not just you. I'm having the same experience with my @att.net email account. Very annoying!

This email is actually run by yahoo, not AT&T, so not sure if there's anything we can do. Just hope they straighten it out at the higher level.
 
Yeh, after 3 days, it's still like this.
