How to Cancel Yahoo Personals

Finding that special someone can be done with help from online dating services like Yahoo Personals. With a little effort you could be with Mr. or Mrs. Right in no time. Once you've found them, however, you're going to want to cancel your Yahoo Personals account so you don't have to keep paying for it. Fortunately, it's fairly easy to cancel your account.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

Cancel Your Yahoo Personals Account

1. Log in to your Yahoo Personals account by entering your login information in the Yahoo or Yahoo Personals homepage (see Resources below).

2. Click on the 'Edit Profile' link once your profile's main page loads. This will link you to all of your profile's details, including all of the search selections you've chosen, as well as the details you selected about potential matches.

3. Click 'Delete Profile' once you are on the profile editor page. You will be asked to confirm your selection to delete, so simply confirm by pressing the 'Delete' button.

4. Click the 'Billing Info' link once you have returned to the Profile Editor view. Verify your password when prompted to do so. Deleting your account doesn't cancel your subscription, but you'll still want to do so in order to keep people from finding your profile and initiating communication.

5. Click the 'Cancel' link from the Billing page. This will prevent automatic payment when your next billing date arrives.

Tips & Warnings

• Use Yahoo Personals effectively by uploading high-quality pictures, and give honest answers to the questions it poses. Have fun and make your personality shine: you'll find your true love sooner if you're honest!
• Don't forget that you can use your account even after it has been canceled up until the time when it would have been due for another subscription payment.
• If you have additional questions about the Yahoo Personals service, find the answers at Yahoo Help (see Resources below).
• Cancel your Yahoo Personals account sooner as opposed to later. If you leave the account active, you may end up passing the cancellation deadline and paying for another month of a service you no longer require.
• When dealing with your Yahoo Personals account, be sure that you are not also canceling or deleting information you may still want to use in the rest of the Yahoo domain, like your email address or online shopping information.
• Never include any private information such as your phone number in your Yahoo Personals account.
