1and1 have a control panel for deleting contracts and domain names from contracts here:

https://contract2.1and1.co.uk

I know somebody who only wanted to delete a domain name from his contract and accidentally deleted his entire contract, so be cafull in selecting what you really intend to delete.

Good luck

Mr M

cancel.1and1.com or cancel.1and1.co.uk I think are the url's for cancelling domains & packages, moving the domain away is not enough as you would still re-billed.

I had a letter from a debt collection agency about a name I moved away a year before. I'd in fact go as far as sending a recorded letter to them informing them of the cancellation and ask for confirmation in writing.

Dreadful company.

Just to add, not being clear and open about how to cancel "contracts" I think just shows how out of touch these cowboys are. There are sites all over the net with people complaining about their practices.

I had the exact same thing happen to me last year. I'd run away from 1and1 as fast as possible.
