If I cancel ATT account will I lose my SBCGlobal email address

Are you wondering if you can keep your sbcglobal email login address when you cancel the services? The quick answer, yes you can! For more information, see the below article.
When you cancel your AT&T Internet account, you will still have access to your account while your account is in good condition. If a credit balance is due on the AT&T Internet account, you will lose access to the email until the problem is resolved. To check if your canceled AT&T Internet account is in good condition, talk to us. If you violate the Terms of Use, your Sbcglobal mail login will be disabled.

Security Issues - If you cancel your services, you will not be able to reset your email address on att.com. It is strongly recommended to set up security questions before canceling. This makes it easier to reset passwords if you forget them.

Merged email addresses - If your Yahoo email is linked to your att.net email, you have the option to unassign them. The att.net e-mail is deleted when you delete the account. You must process the request within 30 days of the cancellation.

Link your e-mail address to your mobile account -This will allow you to reset your password in the future

Follow these steps to delete the account:

• Go to myAT&T and sign in with your AT&T member ID and password.
• Select Profile> Update my profile.
• Under AT&T E-mail Accounts, select Account Profile.
• Next to Member ID, select Delete Account.
• Confirm with OK.
• Make sure the status below in the User Information section is now Disabled. Your e-mail account has been deleted.
• Login to Sbcglobal Mail to continue using your Sbcglobal email address. Click the Merge button in the lower-right corner of the page.

If you do not disconnect your email account from AT & T, you will still need to make monthly payments to keep your email address. If you choose to cancel or are unwilling to pay for the AT&T DSL service, you have no choice but to switch to other e-mail services.
There is nothing you can change in the SBCGlobal email login settings after you have canceled the subscription without disconnecting the email service.

People who have been using SBCGlobal's e-mail service for some time will no longer want to change their e-mail service so they can get rid of the AT & T DSL service and use only sbcglobal.net e-mail setting. You can also use the Yahoo E-mail login as it is absolutely free.
