How to Inactivate AOL
You must close your America Online account to inactivate the screen names associated with your account. When you inactivate and close your AOL account, you no longer receive email on the AOL account, and you can no longer use the AOL system. For this reason, you want to inactivate your account only when you no longer need the AOL email system. Your account stays active until the next billing period, so inactivating the account also stops any recurring charges.
