Yup. And tech support, not that I've ever asked.
My account was disabled once, 7-8 years back. I appealed and they
reopened it within 20 minutes. I don't know why.
It happens, and for many people, it's a nasty shock:

If I lost my Yahoo, AOL or even Hotmail accounts, it wouldn't be a
very big deal. I have had them for 25 years or more, but I barely use
them and never have. The web interfaces of Yahoo and Hotmail are both
completely incapable of properly bottom-posting a plain text email
reply, like this one for example. That alone is a deal-breaker for me.
But Gmail is important. I routinely switch between 6-7 computers, a
smartphone and a tablet, and Gmail works well on all of them and keeps
my address books and calendars in sync. It has native clients for
Android and iOS, even if they can't do top-quoting/bottom-posting.
It's a very versatile tool and I don't know anything else which is
quite so good.
