  Hi! I’d like to delete my account but I can’t find the option to do it.
  Thanks,

  Hi Mariana,

  There isn’t an option to delete your account. However, you can remove all of the personal information from your account and delete your site.

  You can find instructions for that here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  Hi Mariana!

  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 can read more about deleting accounts here: Deleting Accounts

  Sorry to see you go! Keep in mind that deleting a site is permanent – you will not be able to re-use the WordPress.com address.
