They will expire sooner or later - maybe not straight away .... you'd keep them if you had a paid-for service, e.g. domain hosting ...

This post by me answering a similar question sums up the situation. If it's an @f2s.com email address you want to keep working, you can buy a domain name from them and that will keep it working as domain names come with 20 free @f2s.com addresses.

If it's an @username.f2s.com address, these seem to stay working as long as you have a billable service on your account, however F2S don't say anywhere this is the case so they could change their mind at any time and turn it off.

Edit: Thread moved from Freedom2Surf Broadband to Email as this fits in better there.

Mine died a few weeks after migrating out but I think I may have been a 'vocal exception' so they were quick to close me off.


EDIT: Mind you, if i log into my members area now, it lets me create them etc still.
