How do I stop using Yahoo for Verizon and return to Verizon mail.
I can only look at so many ads while checking the email I pay for.

There will be no further technical updates for the Verizon Yahoo! Browser.

There are two methods to uninstall: A. with a downloadable tool or B. with the Control Panel. After the process is finished, you can use Internet Explorer as it is or upgrade it.
Method A: Uninstall Verizon Yahoo! Browser with the Verizon Yahoo! Browser Uninstall Tool
Follow these steps to remove Verizon Yahoo! Browser from your computer with a downloadable tool:
Method B: Uninstall Verizon Yahoo! Browser with the Control Panel

Actually, that on deinstalls the silly updates that were made to the browser itself. What the OP wants is to not have to go to Yahoo anymore for their Verizon email "experience". I feel their pain ... I can't go back to the Verizon email "experience". The only option they offer is the AOL "experience" and no one in their right mind would choose that. 🙂
Wish I could help, but I'm stuck in that rut as well ... if someone knows how to get Verizon to move you back, post it and be a hero!

So you can't log in to verizon email without going through Yahoo! or AOL "experience"? Not familiar with what the "experience" is. Can't you simply go to Verizon email using the link below?

Nope. If you go there and try to login what it does it direct you over to the Yahoo! mail web landing point and then you login using your Verizon account credentials over there. Your mail address and stuff are still @verizon.net, it's just that it's served up via the Yahoo mail front end. Once you select the "Online Experience" option in your account profile for Internet on the MyVerizon site, you can't come back to the Verizon "experience". Well, at least there is no option available to select to change back.
I strongly dislike the Yahoo! experience for exactly the "advertising" reasons the OP cited. This is probably my only complaint about FiOS / Verizon and I really wish they would fix it. Not a major issue since I don't use my Verizon account for mail as I have my own domain, but still in trying to troubleshoot issues others are having with the Verizon webmail interface, my abilities are handcuffed by this silly Yahoo! experience.
How do I stop using Yahoo for my E-mail? I do not have Jump to "Online Experience" under Account Profile.
My choices are jump to: Billing & Payment | Notifications | Sub-Accounts.
Thanks
I had the Yahoo email and I followed these instructions
Log into www.verizon.net. At the top of the page in the red banner select - ACCOUNT>Account Profile>Residential. The next page, from the "Jump to:" list, select "Online Experience" At that point, select the link labeled "Change My Online Experience"
After you click on Residential try clicking on Sub-accounts, I think I went through that to delete or get rid of the Yahoo. You might see the "online experience" there.
