  I need to cancel my account so that I can use my email address for a different account.

  I don’t have a site with WordPress.com yet

  Hi there!

  To close your WordPress.com account, you need to go through the account closure process on your own. This is not something we can do for you.

  You can follow the steps here:

  https://wordpress.com/support/close-account/

  Note: This shuts down your username and deletes all the sites associated with your WordPress.com account and all their contents. After a few weeks, this data will be entirely purged from WordPress.com’s servers and the process cannot be reversed. Therefore, please be sure you want to cancel your entire WordPress.com presence before proceeding.

  I hope that helps!
