  Hi @brixhamauctions,

  Accounts on WordPress.com can’t be totally deleted since the staff at WordPress.com don’t want other people to use your username in the future. It is however possible to empty your account with all your real info and put in an email address you don’t use, so you won’t have to deal with the account ever again. To check out the steps to achieve that, please read this reply from staff member staff-doublebassd:“https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/delete-account-forever-1?replies=3#post-2714085

  Please be aware that if you just want to delete your WordPress.com website, and still keep your account, you can check out how to do that in this support article https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site.
