  User accounts cannot be deleted. If you wish to leave WordPress.com, you can just leave your account inactive. To unsubscribe from any email notifications from WordPress.com, go to your subscription settings and check the box that says Block Emails and click save. See the subscriptions support page for more information about this.

  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 prevent you from gaining access to the account in the future.
