Follow up... If you have a Small Business account set up than this is a different process. However, if you set up a personal domain name, than you need to contact Yahoo and have it cancelled. Then they will provide you with an Authorization code, all before you can have it transferred. The process is extreeeeeemmely loooooong and you are painfully being serviced by highly trained human robot voices. So, you need to first begin by asking for "Other Billing" @ 1-866-562-7219, extensions... Option 1, Option 5. 1st: Confirm that you want to cancel the Domain Name and obtain an Authorization Code 2nd: Answer some verification questions 3rd: Cancellation process begins 4th: Long Holding Period 5th: Transferring from the Technical Staff to continue processing of the Authorization Code 6th: Very Long Holding Period 7th: Discussing Refund 8th: Long Holding Period 9th: Transferring to Premier Tech Support @ 1-866-562-7219, Option: 2, Option: 1, Option: 2, Option: 4 10th: Answer some verification questions "again" 11th: Transferring to an Engineering Escalation 12th: Long Holding Period 13th: Told that they would send me my Authorization Code Three Days for the $10.00 Refund Three Days for the Authorization Code Three Reference Numbers (i.e., Original, Billing, Esclation) were given to me.
