  I had a site with URL https://skibbwalking.wordpress.com/, which I thought I had deleted. This corresponds to the message I get in wordpress.com, which tells me that I have no site, that I only follow one site.However, I can still find the original skibbwalking site in google search. I do not want this site to be visible anymore. Can you help? Jutta

  https://skibbwalking.wordpress.com/ is indeed not deleted yet, as I could still browse the site.

  If you need to delete the site, there is instruction here:

  Thanks, have tried. In order to delete the site I have to go to My site-settings. I cannot do that since I am told I have no site. I am going in a vicious circle here.

  Do you remember that you have any other account that own https://skibbwalking.wordpress.com/ ?

  Let me know if you do, otherwise I’ll inform the staff to take a look into your issue :)

  Thanks again, Elte! No, I have no other account. I have already tried everything including accessing the dashboard of the site. I am told that I have no right to access it and that I should prove ownership. But I cannot prove ownership other than stating my username and password.
