How to Cancel 1And1 Domain

If you forget to cancel a domain name which you don't use anymore, 1&1 will automatically renew it at the end of the billing cycle and charge you for it. 1&1, like most other web hosting companies, allows its customers to register domain names for a certain length of time, with a minimum of one year. You can cancel the domain name you have registered with 1&1 by using its dedicated web interface.

Instructions

1. Visit the 1&1 Cancel website (see Resources). Log in using your 1&1 Client ID and password.

2. Click the "Cancellation" button at the top of the page, then select the hosting package which includes the domain name you want to cancel.

3. Click the "Individual domains/additional items cancel" option, then click "Next."

4. Check the checkbox next to the domain you want to cancel, then select "End domain contract" in the drop-down menu. You can also specify when you want the contract to end. Select "As soon as possible" from the second drop-down menu to cancel your domain name right away.

5. Click the "Next" button. You will now have the opportunity to review the changes you have made to your account. Click the "Confirm" button to save the new settings.

6. Check your email account for a new email from 1&1. Click on the link inside the message to activate the cancellation request.
