AOL is notorious for making it hard to cancel an account with them. I
found one mention of an email address you can suposedly write to to
instruct them to terminate. I did this twice but have received no

who wants to listen to hours of musak, anyway?

However, there is hope.... The credit card they are take my monthly
payments from, is due to expire on 30 Nov. If I simply don't update my
card details in my AOL profile, will this effectively terminate the
account (or at least, terminate my payments going to AOL)?

You will most likely end up with a letter from a debt collection
agency. I know others who have tried the exact same thing (albeit
with a few different ISPs). You need to actually cancel your contract
with them (sending a letter should be enough - send it registered
post).
