Re-activating a canceled account

If you have cancelled your account, you may be able to restore it, depending on how long ago it was cancelled. There is a US$9.95 reactivation fee for restoring an account.

Warning: Even if your account is restored, the associated inventory, land, and Linden dollar balance may be unrecoverable.

To start the process:

1. Open a support case.
2. Under What type of problem are you having? choose Account Issue.
3. Choose Reactivate an old account.
4. Enter the required information
5. Click Submit.

If you cancelled an account 3 years ago, the chances that it is still there are very dim indeed. If the account can be resurrected, I would be very surprised to see that its inventory was still there.  You can pay the $9.95 to find out, but you may be better off just opening a new account.
