Hi there,
You can’t delete your WordPress account. However, you can delete the blogs associated with your account. To do this:Visit your WordPress Dashboard page
Click “My Blogs” on the left menu
Click on the name of the blog you want to delete
Click on “Tools” on the left menu
Choose “Delete Site” on the left menu under “Tools”
From the next dropdown, select “Permanently delete the blog and all content”
Confirm that you want to delete the blog
Deleting a blog can not be undone. All of the blog’s contents will be lost forever once it is deleted. -
Here is the relevant support doc explaining why you can’t delete your account: http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/
Keep in mind that if you delete your site, cached copies may still appear on search engines for months afterwards. There’s nothing WordPress.com can do about this.
See this post by another volunteer on how to remove your personal information from WordPress and effectively deactivate your account yourself: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/06/02/deleting-accounts-blogs-and-content/
