Old Blog
-
I have an old blog I can no longer access and I need to delete it. The email address that I have it linked to is no longer valid. I need to know how can I get the blog deleted.

We cannot delete the blog for you. You have to recover it and then delete it yourself. As you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery. https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recoveryProvided you are logged in under the Admin username account that registered the blog in question you can delete any blog registered under that username by using these instructions. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
After you do that if you cannot locate a verification email, look in your email client spam/junk mail filter for the email with the blog deletion verification link in it and click that link. If clicking it does not work then copy and paste the link into your upper browser bar and click.
Deleted blog URLs are not recycled. If you delete a blog URL it can not be used by you or by anyone else again. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/ That is why I suggest you make it private instead http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
