Do you Yahoo! but no longer want to? Whether you want to close your Yahoo! Mail account because you move on, because it is an old account you check only very rarely or for any other reason, it is probably easier done than pondered.
What Deleting a Yahoo! Mail Account Will Cost You
If you delete your Yahoo! Mail account, you also lose your Yahoo! GeoCities page, your My Yahoo! settings, your Hotjobs profile and other data in services belonging to the Yahoo! empire. If you are paying for any Yahoo! subscription services such as Yahoo! Mail Plus, it is probably best to cancel these first to avoid unexpected payments.
Also be aware that people will still be able to send messages to your closed Yahoo! Mail account for 90 days without getting a delivery error while you cannot log in to your account to see them. So make sure you tell all your friends and contacts when you are about to terminate your Yahoo! Mail account.

- Visit the Terminating Your Yahoo! Account page.
- Type your password under please confirm your identity with your password..

- Wait 90 days for Yahoo! to delete data (such as email messages) associated with your account.
