  I deleted my blog (http://rvmsblog.wordpress.com, redirects to http://blog.rvms.com) last week, got the confirming email, executed the confirmation, but the blog still up and running and receiving comments.

  Since it’s no longer accessible from my dashboard, how can I get rid of it, please?

  I put it in the body of the text since WordPress thinks the blog is deleted, although it ain’t.

  Again the blog in question is http://rvmsblog.wordpress.com, which redirects to http://blog.rvms.com. Your bot seems not to recognize the URL, but if you try it, you’ll get my blog, honest.

  When I tried to go to the sign-in page – there is a deleted message – so might be some sort of cache issues –

  Just cleared cache again, and it’s still there. When you say you went to the sign-in page, do you mean the admin page/dashboard? Yes, that’s gone, but the blog is still up. Did you go to rvmsblog.wordpress.com?

  I’ve checked this now on three browsers each on two computers, plus my phone. Shows up in all seven configurations, so I don’t think it’s a cache issue.
