Good morning atlantia,
Thanks for posting, this is a bit of a tricky situation. There's a Transfer in Ownership form for these requests which does require both parties' involvement, however, only purchase accounts may be transferred. For lease accounts like yours, to have the service in your own name would be to cancel this one immediately and sign up again. Fortunately, you're currently out of contract, so there is no Early Termination Fee if you cancel.

Hi Liz,
The reason I posted this is that when I called to do the cancellation, They told me that I couldn't cancel without the account "owner's" permission which I cannot get. This was supposed to have been corrected in 2017 when I went from Gen 4 to Gen 5 but apparent;y all they did was put my name on the "billing". Please put a notation in my account so that when I call to do the cancellation, that it will go through.
Thank You,
