According to Yahoo, although the service is dropped, subscribers will still have access to their personal data.

According to a Yahoo spokesperson, We are discontinuing our Yahoo Plus service as part of our ongoing commitment to focus on businesses that are core to our future growth. We always listen to our users and assess which businesses it makes the most sense for Yahoo to operate in and it has become clear that Plus was not an essential service for Yahoo users.” [Source]

Subscribers on a monthly subscription will not receive a refund. Subscribers on an annual subscription will receive a refund on a pro-rated basis.

The service will be cancelled as of April 22, 2006.
