  Hi @gdgbjhgf,

  You cannot delete your WordPress.com account; however you can easily empty and then delete your site.

  If you wish to leave WordPress.com for good then you should 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. To unsubscribe from any email notifications from WordPress.com, go to your subscription settings and check the box that says Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com.

  You can even go as far as changing/renaming your username and reusing your email address. You can read more about that here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  I hope that information helps!
