I signed on to AOL to get some free schwag, and used my screen name that I'd had for ages to do so.
Should have made something different. I'd heard the horror stories of people trying to cancel their AOL accounts and having it not happen, so I used a disposable credit card number, and cancelled it right after I opened the account.
Well, I forgot to try and cancel it, but was comforted by the fact that they couldn't charge me.
Went to sign on today, and I find I can't! Account has been blocked. Called and tried to unblock it, but they won't unless I pony up $23.90 for a month's service (which I've never even used). Yeah, right.
So I've had to start a new screen name. It's in my profile, for those of you who had it before.

I just had to remember once month to call and say I wanted to "cancel" and when they asked why I just said I have been busy and havent had much time to try it out, and they are like, well let me give you another month so you can try out some stuff, like our new XXXX feature and see how you like it....
