    Wordpress is not meeting my needs and I’d like to delete my account. I am already using another place and am certain! I love wordpress for my blog, but it just isn’t working great for my business.

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    Prior to closing your WordPress.com account, you must cancel any active WordPress.com plans or upgrades from the Purchases section of your account.

    By following the directions on your Account Settings page (https://wordpress.com/me/account), you can permanently close your WordPress.com account.

    Please note that you will lose all the sites you own and their contents when you close your account. Within a few weeks, the data will be removed entirely from the system, and at this point, this cannot be undone.

    You can find more information here:
    https://wordpress.com/support/close-account

    Hope this helps! :)
