In the beginnig the price was just 5€ each one, but after several years I realized I am not using at all .org domain, and, more important, .org domain "exposes" to all people personal data (email, phone number, even postal address!!...)

So I decedid to cancel .org domain.
I didn't see any option about cancel in control panel, https://clientes.1and1.es/
Googling, I finally found this
http://www.joomlaempresa.es/es/tutoriales/trucos-para-webmaster/125-como-dar-de-baja-un-dominio-en-1and1.html
Login in https://contrato.1and1.es/ I was able to cancell .org keeping .es domain at the same time. I fixed the ending date as the date where end my contract for that domain: meanwhile I am going to redirect .org domain redirecting to a page where I inform that I am no longer using .org domain (right now I was redirecting both to the same Google site)
