I've very recently cancelled my AOL account with no problems. (Well that's not strictly true as I called their line at 8.40pm and the department was closed - it should have closed at 9pm.)
Anyway, if you can't get the cancellation department, try pressing the option for 'billing' - an AOL rep told me to try that if I couldn't get cancellations.
You can also cancel online, but it will take up to 24 hours for it to be actioned. Personally I preferred to get it done via the phone, that way I knew it had been dealt with.Herman - MP for all!0 -

Why are you cancelling - I know AOL isn't the favourite with computer nerds (polite - not derogetory name) but they've been good to us when things went wrong with our pc.
Spent ages on about 1/2 dozen FREE calls to them, to get it sorted.
& when we suggested switching to onetel, they gave a free month, to compare back to back.
We've stayed with them, but also use onetel for email, but think this will go soon. It's verrrrrrrrrrrry slow, since they changed servers.
