We have specific procedures for canceling services with SKGOLD® Hosting. Our cancellation procedures are very simple (takes a minute to complete) and protect you from UNAUTHORIZED cancellations. These procedures allows us to verify that you are indeed the account holder and that you indeed want to cancel your hosting plan and/or domain name registration and authorize your website and files to be deleted.
