How to delete your AIM account

Go to http://cancel.aol.com and log in to your account. 

Answer your Account Security Question. 

In the bottom right-hand corner of the Manage My Services & Subscriptions page, click Cancel. 

Note: you can reactivate within 6 months after deleting it. To do this, just sign in on the AOL homepage and follow the instructions.
 Direct removal link: http://cancel.aol.com

TIP good to know

Publicly visible text/images often aren't properly deleted even when you succeed in deleting an account. Try editing or deleting them manually before deleting the account itself. If you're unsure what happens to your tracks: this can be found mostly in the Terms of Service/Privacy Policy; otherwise you can always contact AIM and ask personally. By the way, deletion requests don't necessarily mean your data will actually be deleted (e.g. due to legal obligations).

TIP Remove third-party logins

If you signed up for AIM using a third-party login such as Facebook or Twitter, you probably want to revoke all access from AIM. Click the icon below to find out how.
