    Good morning. This account was used by an Alumni organization of a Brazilian University. We would like to delete this account because it’s not used anymore.

    Thank you,

    Bom dia. Esta conta era utilizada por uma organização estudantil de uma universidade brasileira. Nós gostaríamos solicitar a exclusão desta conta pois ela não é mais utilizada.

    Obrigado,

    Hello absurdoldbird

    I’ve already read this topic. I asked here because this is not a personal account, it’s an organization’s account and it’s not being used anymore. Isn’t it possible?

    Thanks,
    Lucas

    @caadm
    If you are referring to a free hsoted WordPress.com blog you can easily delete all blog content by yourself.
    bulk delete images & media http://en.support.wordpress.com/media/deleting-files/#bulk-deletion
    bulk delete posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/#bulk-edit
    bulk delete pages > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/edit-pages-screen/#bulk-edit
    Here’s how to permanently delete Trash >
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#deleting-permanently

    Or you can delete the blog but do be mindful that there is no recycling of deleted blog URLS here at wordpress.com.
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-blog/
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

    Username accounts are not deleted. For more information, please see http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

    1. You can go to My Account->Edit Profile and remove all data except the account name and an email address. Create a throwaway email address and change the account email to that throwaway address. This only leaves the username behind.

    2. To unsubscribe from email sent to you from WordPress.com, go here and click on “Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com”:
    http://wordpress.com/#!/following/subsettings/

    3. To ensure the account is locked up tightly, visit this site, generate a password of 15-20 characters, and change the account password to it:
