Yahoo Fantasy on the decline

I have been a user of Yahoo Fantasy since 2003. It has been my preferred way to fantasy sports because of how easy it is to use and honestly, nostalgia. But recently, I have been disappointed with my experience on Yahoo Fantasy. There have been instances where players in fantasy baseball have not been listed in a starting lineup when they were and vice versa. As commissioner of my fantasy baseball league this has caused me many headaches due to the complaints of other in my league. My second point of concern would be the fact that it is so hard to get in touch with support. I understand that this time of year is difficult with the volume due to fantasy football but it took me 5 days to get the ruling on a tiebreaker scenario for the playoffs. I love Yahoo Fantasy and will continue to use it because it is superior to ESPN, CBS, etc. but I would like to see some internal housekeeping from time to time. Two more suggestion: can we have more than 20 characters for team names and the option to switch players out of doubleheader's/rain outs. Thanks again!

Hi Matt, we appreciate your feedback. We are aware that there were some issues with players not being listed in the starting lineup when they actually were and this has been resolved.
In regards to contacting customer support, we aim to respond to your requests for support as quick as possible. Due to the large number of contacts with football, we were answering our members in the order they were received which may caused delays in the response time to our members. If you do need more of an immediate response, we are available to contact on Twitter @YahooFantasyCC.
We will get your suggestions to our product team but if you want to leave any additional comments about these suggestions, that can be done at our UserVoice page by going to https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN6580.html.

Good fantasy app BUT trading needs some updates

The app overall is great. They are always updating and adding new features. Current problem I have been having in multiple leagues which has caused me to have to contact multiple managers along with the commissioners to fix is the trading. If trades are accepted while a manager has enough roster spots to take a 2 for 1 trade it will allow the trade to go through. If that same manager picks someone up in the following 2 days before the trade is processed, that trade basically becomes vetoed/unsuccessful because now they would have needed to drop someone and that wasn't in the original trade. Because of this, on game days I am having to scramble with managers and commissioners to go back thru and have them push the trades through. These teams basically can have buyers remorse and do this PURPOSELY to void trades they no longer agree with. This NEEDS to be fixed by app developers as it has caused many headaches throughout the year. Again, this is one of the best fantasy apps minus this loop hole for buyers remorse. Make it so the person getting two players has chances or options to have someone dropped before the entire trade ends up in the toilet and managers with buyers remorse don't get a chance to back out of deals unfairly.

Where's my team?

At long last, Yahoo opened fantasy baseball last month (well behind schedule and other platforms), but our league has no way to view our rosters from the previous year on the app. We have setup the keeper league management and everything, but for some reason you can only see your players on the desktop version via web browser. Therefore, the app is basically useless for me when it comes to checking updates on my players until the season starts.

RECOMMENDATIONS: Make previous year's final roster viewable predraft on the app for keeper leagues. Side note: please make the auction draft values for each player available on both the team and picks tabs, given that there's no benefit to knowing the order of nomination in an auction league. The draft value is the most important item. I can't view it via the app yet since we haven't drafted so kudos if you've already fixed it.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Our team is constantly looking for ways to improve the app, so we'll pass along your recommendations about adding keepers and draft values. We're striving to give you the best app experience possible!
