  Hi yeongseonjo88,

  WordPress.com accounts cannot be deleted. You can, however make your account inactive and prevent yourself from gaining access in the future.

  If you wish to leave WordPress.com, you can easily empty and delete your site. Once this is done remove all personal information from your Account Settings and change your password to a random string. This will leave your account inactive and prevent you from gaining access to it in the future.

  You’ll also want to unsubscribe from any email notifications from WordPress.com. Go to your subscription settings and check the box that says Block all email updates from blogs you’re following on WordPress.com.

  More details can be found here:

  Cheers,
  Taylor

  Help!

  I reopened me account with an old email. This email no longer exists. I also created another account with my current email without meaning too.

  Now, I can’t change my old email address to my new email address. I also can’t add my domain name to my account with the current email address.

  Is there a way to deactivate one account so I can have my domain name and email address all on the same account? Otherwise I’m hooped!

  Thanks!
