  Hello there, I was just testing the jetpack plugin and that’s the reason I get an account here, I check the jetpack and I don’t really need it and neither this account, I don’t want you to have an account that nobody’s gonna use, it’s gonna be just trash in your database, so please, delete my account, you can email me asking for permission, please, do it. Thanks a lot.

  Username accounts are not deleted at WordPress.com http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/ but please note the following:

  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”:

  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:
