question:
"I no longer require the services of the Modular Merchant Shopping Cart Software. How do I cancel my account?"
To close your Modular Merchant account, follow these steps:
1) In your Administration Area, locate [Admin > Manage Modular Merchant Account > Close Account].
Path to locating the Account Closure Tool.
2) We encourage you to read through the information under Account Closure Survey titled "What happens when I close my account?", for it includes information involving license expiration, final billing information and when your store database will be deleted from the server.
3) Fill out the survey, and click the "Close My Account" button. Your account closure process has now begun.
4) After the form is submitted, the account will be closed at the end of its billing cycle. Any disk and/or bandwidth overages incurred during that billing cycle will be charged on the last day of the billing cycle. That will be the account's final invoice, and the account will be shut down immediately thereafter.
submitting an account closure request
For security reasons, this account closure tool is used to cancel an account. Requests by phone or email do not qualify, and such requests will be directed to the account closure tool. Thank you for your understanding.

No! I love you guys! I don't want to leave!!! Forgive me...
We forgive you. If you decide that you really didn't want to close the account; no problem! When you submit the closure request, you will be taken to a page that provides the option of undoing the closure request.
Even if you don't take the opportunity to undo the closure at that time, you'll have a friendly little notice that follows you around. Select the link, "Click here to undo your account closure request.".
The floating warning forgives you too.
Closing a Dedicated Server Account
Dedicated servers require a minimum of 30-days advanced notice prior to cancellation. (This is a requirement of the server facility which provides the dedicated server hardware.) The closure date will be scheduled for the end of the billing cycle that is after this 30-day period. See section 4.2.1 of Modular Merchant's Terms of Service Agreement for more information regarding the closure of dedicated servers.
excerpt from the terms of service: article 4.2.1
"After the initial term, Client may terminate their subscription to the Dedicated Server product for convenience at any time on thirty (30) days advance written notice by using the "Close Account" form in the Client's account administration area to provide at least thirty (30) days advance notice of non-renewal."
Refunds
