Verizon webmail is another big name in the list of popular email services. It was owned and operated by Verizon Communication, which is an integrated American telecommunication company that offers—
- Voice and Data Services
- Wireless Services
- Internet Services &
- Published Directory Information
Besides that, Verizon for years used to provide effective webmail services to its residential internet customers. Talking further about the same, let me admit that the webmail platform of Verizon had all the functionality that one never expects for a free email account and as a result of that, it had gained an immense database of total 4.4 million email users with around 2.5 million active ones.
How to Access Verizon Webmail Service?
Earlier, Verizon users were able to sign up and access their email addresses simply through the Verizon webmail login portal. But that’s not the case anymore.
Since 2017, when Verizon shifted its focus from email business to only take care of its other services like television, internet and IPTV, it continues to offer its webmail service for all its customers over two more capable email platforms namely Yahoo Mail and AOL Mail.
To be precise, Verizon had moved all Verizon.net email addresses of its users to AOL (another brand which it owns & uses to provide webmail services) and Yahoo. By doing so, Verizon has completely changed the way its old-timer and new customers would access and use its webmail service.
Now, it won’t be possible to access a Verizon email account from the Verizon email login page. Instead, one has to use the email platform of either of the two popular services, namely ‘AOL and Yahoo’ Mail.
Albeit, it was quite a troublesome situation because Verizon users were asked to shift their email accounts to either of the aforementioned platforms within a limited time frame but, most of them still decided to stick with Verizon as its email service is considered to be highly rich in features.
So, knowing this fact that Verizon had taken down its emailing services in 2017, if you’re wondering whether you can still sign up for the Verizon email service then, read on further to get the answer for this!
