How do I delete old left over blogs?
-
I have two left over blogs from back when that I need to delete, but I cannot access Dashboard Setting to delete them. If you go to old main blog named LoyBanks WebLog, then you will see two blogs under that main blog named….Brityn’s Blog and PuebloWest Blog. I somehow need to delete the last two names, but the Dashboards are not accessible. So any idea how I get this accomplished? I need the help. Thanks.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is only one means of account recovery so please read on.
You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.
Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibilityIf you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If required please complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.

After you have recovered access to the blogs you can then either delete them or make them private.
All blogs are independent sites so what you do on or with one has no effects on any others.
To delete a free hosted WordPress.COM blog you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered 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.
