Aol and moving house

Hi
I currently have aol broadband (talktalk) but am moving house in a couple of weeks so looking at a new broadband package, ideally with tv and phone although i dont want a landline phone. I am a complete technophobe and have no idea what i am doing but the main thing is can i keep my aol email address if i leave aol? I have googled it but got differing answers? I have so many things attached to my email address it would be a huge pain to change them all so is it possible to leave aol but still use the aol email address?


any help would be appreciated, thanks

    About time you got an email address that is not tied to a ISP .
    Google mail is free use it and transfer your address book before moving .
    Usually an ISP email service expires on leaving but the actual expiry may be unknown . Most ISPs just wait until they have a big batch of old users and suddenly delete the accounts .Suddenly all gone and you have lost the lot .

    AOL e-mail operates separately to AOL Broadband so you can continue to use your e-mail address after cancelling your AOL Broadband service.
