Hello there,
To delete a free hosted WordPress.COM blog you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered a blog to delete the blog. To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click.

Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/Alternatively, to change blog visibility to private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 . See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content and deleting blogs does not remove any indexed content from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.
Here’s how to deactivate your account:
All you were required to provide to register an account here was an email address that can be replaced at any time.Any personal information that you voluntarily posted can also be removed at any time.
Although username accounts are not deleted, so you cannot be impersonated and have your reputation affected by anyone registering the same username in the future, there are steps you can take that amount to removing all personal information and result in leaving only a throwaway email address behind. http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/
1. You can go to My Account->Edit Profile and remove all data except the account name and an email address. Create a throwaway email address and change the account email to that throwaway address. This only leaves the username behind.
2. To unsubscribe from email sent to you from WordPress.com, go here and click on “Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com”:
https://wordpress.com/settings/notifications/3. To ensure the account is locked up tightly, visit this site, generate a password of 15-20 characters, and change the account password to it:

Hi,
To delete your account, please follow the instructions here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/
This does not really delete your account since you can’t delete your account in WordPress.com but this will render your account inactive.Please let me know if you have further questions about the process.

I answered this thread correctly above Aug 23, 2014, 1:43 PM so why would anyone need to contact you about the process? -
Hi, @timethief!
I was actually just reiterating what you said since you had the correct response in case it was missed. After I typed out my response, I had meant to prefix my response with “As timethief said” but I got called away from the computer so I didn’t get a chance to add that to my response.

@honeysilvas
Hi there and thanks for the clarity. Granted I’ve been celebrating but I was so confused. I could not figure out what part of the process had been missed so I add it in next time. -
Sorry for the confusion. As always, your answers are spot on and thorough so there’s not really anything to add. Keep on celebrating!
