easiest way to leave AOL (none / 0) (#4)
by Anonymous User on Sat Aug 27, 2005 at 07:03:04 PM PDT

as a former employee who worked in cancellations, the easiest way is to just hang up. After you call in, verify your account (by providing screen name, answer the the ASQ - account security question - the billing validator - last four digits of your payment method - or by providing the screen name, your name, and your complete address. Then simply say "I want to cancel my account" and hang up. By the guidelines AOL has set up, the representative MUST cancel the account. Also.. another great/easy way to cancel the account.. regardless of what name the account is under, even if it is yours, say that it is your son or daughters who is under the age of 18, and again, by the guidelines AOL has set up, the representative MUST terminate the account immediately. Hope this is helpful. :)
