I want to delete my blog, but I can't access my email?
-
Hi,
I made a blog a few years ago with my hotmail email. Now I’m back and I’d like to delete this blog. Problem is, I can’t access my email. I’ve tried every password possible for my email (I do remember the username though). I really need to delete my blog. Is there a way I can delete my blog without using the email I registered when I made the blog?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

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 and delete it.
As you have lost the login info you visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
and click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery. https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recoveryOnce you have recovered the account you can login in to delete it. 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.
