  I have an old blog but no way to get access to log into since I no longer have the email associated with it. Is there anyway I can request to have the blog deleted??? I’m just trying to clear up my online presence. Thanks for any assistance!

  Hello,

  If you have lost access to your WordPress.com account, you can try the different methods mentioned in the Account recovery support document here: https://wordpress.com/support/account-recovery/

  After you recover your account, you can delete the site by following the steps mentioned here: https://wordpress.com/support/delete-site/

  Please note deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to re-use its WordPress.com address.

  Hope this helps!

  Cheers!

  Thank you but I already tried the account recovery support document. I don’t have access to my old email or phone number so there’s literally no way that I’m aware of to get in. I’ve been trying to find out how to ask WordPress directly but can’t seem to find accurate information to reach customer service outside of this forum.

  Thank you for the suggestion though :)

  Hi there!

  As mentioned by the staff on this thread: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/old-account-22/, you can fill out the Account recovery form here: https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

  If you are unable to fill out the form, please contact the Account Recovery Team directly at passwordhelp@wordpress.com

  Hope this helps.

  Thanks!
