Verizon Your Domain ... Discontinued?!?!?!

I just went on to the Verizon website and it says that Verizon Your Domain service has been discontinued. This must explain why we've had such trouble setting it up. Why on Earth would they do this? Now how is it possible to keep your Verizon email once you switch to another provider? I'm sick and tired of being held prisoner. This is not okay. I have never been that happy with Verizon. I will admit their customer support is good, but the ability to get good service is not.

We thought we had but it hasn't been working. When was this first announced? I just don't understand why would do this. Is there any alternative?

We've been told that you can still keep your email after cancelation.  You just don't have to pay or register.  You'll want to confirm for yourself.

Since Verizon Your Domain service has been discontinued, what's the process moving forward if you want to retain your Verizon email address after leaving Verizon?

They are moving everyone to AOL.  And until you do you will be able to keep your email as long as you access it at least once in 6 months.  Not sure if that is also tha AOL rule.  Aol has a free basic account.

Verizon is totally useless when dealing with Domain issues.  I spoke to 4 people and spent 1.5 hours on the phone to find out why my domain was disconnected.  Two people said it was discontinued and 2 said it was active. The last person I spoke to asked me for my phone number in case the call was dropped.  Of course it was, but I never received a call back.  I will be writing to the FCC about the poor customer service and products Verizon has on the market.  I would write my senator and congressman, but they created this mess when they broke up Ma Bell.

Is there any way to request that your "my domain" email account can be transferred to the new AOL mail?

After obtaining My domain email many years ago (mind you I only did to keep my email), I migarted last summer to AOL and am now being told My domain is being discontinued yet i am still being charged.  How do I cancel my domain? and will this have any effect on my email that isn ow being handled by AOL?  I called Verizon and they couldn't find my account #.  If it is just a matter of keepin gmy emial but my domain will be dropped without purchians via Yahoo business, then why am I being charged?  I am very confused and can't get answers.  If anyone can assist that would be appreciated.
