How to Delete Your Yahoo Account

Yahoo has fallen victim to hackers many times throughout their tenure on the internet.

If you follow the AnsonAlex.com blog regularly, then you may know that I suggest you use a different service for email, calendars and contacts than the services provided by Yahoo.

If you’ve decided to move away from Yahoo, the above video tutorial will show you how you can delete your Yahoo account once and for all.

To Delete Your Yahoo Account:

  1. Navigate to https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user.
  2. Enter your Yahoo password.
  3. Fill out the captcha.
  4. Click “Terminate”.
