  You DO NOT have any right to keep my account like this. I want to delete it. And if I do not have any due payment pending, and yes I do not have!, you have to delete my account. Even if there is an item in the terms of usage, I have right of withdrawal any time in according to all country laws.
  DELETE MY ACCOUNT. I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE ANY CONNECTION WITH WORDPRESS. And be informed your attitude about deleting accounts is DISGUSTING!

  You seem to be confused. All that was required to register an account here was an email address and your agreement to the Terms of Service. Any personal information you provided was done voluntarily. Both can be removed at any time.

  Here’s how to deactivate your account:
  Although username accounts are not deleted, so you cannot be impersonated and have your reputation affected by anyone registering the same username in the future, there are steps you can take that amount to removing all personal information and result in leaving only a throwaway email address behind. 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”:

  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:

  4. To hide your Gravatar profile, login and on the bottom right hand corner of your Gravatar profile page you will find a “hide” button visible only to you that you can click.

  I am not confused. I know that I can deactivate my account. But I want to delete it, not deactivate, and I mentioned this above very clearly.

  If wordpress does not want anyone to use other’s (deleted user’s) usernames, they block the related usernames, So no-one can use again. It is easy.

  If any person form wordpress support reads this message, DELETE my account please.

  If this is not the area you solve the problems, so please someone give me a contact e-mail or number.

  It’s not possible to delete your account. You can remove all of your personal information, change your username to random characters and change the e-mail address to an address you don’t use for anything else. This will effectively remove any association between you and the account.
