    Hi skmanoree,

    I am not sure how you can (or if you can) transfer comments from one account to another. But I’ll search about that.

    And for deleting the site or account, check these two links –
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

    thank you @omkarbhagat for links provided..
    unfortunately it does not say about pure deletion of account though it says about deleting site that is deleting blog
    about keep inactive account

    but idealy it does not mean deleting account.
    I am sure wordpress would have some user friendly provision to delete account permanently instead only keeping it in ‘inactive’ state.

    pls help for information about the same and comment part.

    As far as I know, there is no pure deletion of record. Instead you insert garbage/fake information in your account and leave it.

    Check this thread for more info –
    https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/permanently-delete-wordpress-account?replies=23

    From that thread, I’d like to quote this here –

    You can remove all of your personal information and content from the site. That is acceptable to me.

    The only thing that would be left are dead usernames and other non-identifying things. I assume they are left dead rather than letting you remove them so that your username and identity can not be taken by others.

    That’s all the info that I can provide :)
