However, Yahoo Mail users took to Tweeter to express their frustration.

One of the customers said, “Some of our service”? Your entire network is down. You are losing your customers money…including me. Unbelievable.”

Seeking alternative to Yahoo Mail, another user tweeted: “Time to leave @yahoomail after 20 years – what’s the best alternative?”
