Neither of those.
Instead, visit the category page where your site is listed and use the update listing link at the top of the page. You'll be able to explain why you think the site should be moved and to where in the bottom dialogue box.
Avoid the temptation to provide a promotional description or title at the same time.
Update listing requests are prominent and many editors give them priority.

Also, very often there are specific directory rules concerning site placement.
A good example involves real estate agent websites.
Our rules specifically require that the site be listed in the locality where the agent has his or her main office.
Agents routinely try and get us to list them at the state level on the theory they will go anywhere in the state to list or sell a home.
Their argument does not receive any consideration, and they end up wasting tremendous amounts of time (I would estimate that in the regional part of the directory, more than 70% of all update requests come from real estate agents.
So, before suggesting a category move, spend some quality time with our editing guidelines.
And, just as with initial suggestions, you will not receive a notification when we review the request, nor any notification if we decide not to honor it.
