AOL to end dial up internet service after 34 years

AOL’s dial-up internet service is ending on Sept. 30. The service will no longer be available on user plans, according to the company. Established in the mid-1980s, AOL is well-known for "You’ve got mail" message and instant messaging services. Service is set to stop on Sept. 30, according to a company webpage titled "Dial-up Internet to be discontinued." In a statement obtained by FOX Business, AOL said, "We are discontinuing the dial-up internet service component included in certain legacy AOL Advantage, CompuServe, and Netscape Connect Plans as we innovate to meet the needs of today’s digital landscape," a spokesperson for Yahoo – which counts AOL among its brands." "This change does not impact the numerous other valued products and services that these subscribers are able to access and enjoy as part of their plans. There is also no impact to our users’ free AOL email accounts," the statement added. AOL, formerly known as America Online and known for its "You’ve got mail" messages, buddy lists and instant messaging services, was founded in 1985 and became the leading internet service provider in the 1990s. In 1993, Time noted that AOL launched its own email addresses and access to the rest of the internet for its users. According to FOX Business, free trial discs were shipped to homes when the internet as the company gained traction. AOL customers needed a home phone line for the service. AOL became the nation’s largest internet provider by 2000 with a net worth of $125 billion. AOL merged with Time Warner, but the companies parted ways in 2009 and AOL continued making money off its dial-up internet service, Time noted.
