  You cannot delete anything on anyone else’s blog. You can contact them via a comment box or a contact form and ask them to remove what they have posted. See here http://en.support.wordpress.com/private-information/ and if appropriate then use this form http://en.wordpress.com/abuse/

  Also note that there is no means of compelling anyone to remove a comment you voluntarily made on their blog post. If they refuse to respond to your request to delete it or they flatly refuse to delete it then it’s stays where it is and Staff will NOT remove it.

  I just want my full name and email address deleted. Not what I wrote. What I wrote was meant to be confidential and it advised me when I was filling out the comment that my email address and name will NOT be shown however my full name and email is visible to everyone.

  That is not a blog issue. You may be able to take civil action to force them to take it down, but neither of those pieces of information are typically considered to be confidential so law enforcement won’t be involved.
