Problem deleting a website
-
I want to delete bienemadiekefotografie.wordpress.com, however in my dashboard there is no option ‘tools’ between ‘users’ and ‘settings’.
The reason I want to delete this website is because it is not working properly.
Thank you for your help.

If you want to permanently delete your site, follow the guide below:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/
Please read the warnings and advice before deleting a site, as we can’t revert a site deletion for any reason.
If you want to hide your site instead, you can use the following guide to make your site private so only you and other members of the site can view it when logged in:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
If you have any trouble, let me know, and I will be happy to delete the site for you.

I have read the guide before I made this post. However, the problem is that the option ‘tools’ and therefore the option ‘delete site’ is not available to me.
I would appreciate it if you could permanently delete the site for me.
Thank you in advance,

All blogs are independent websites so what you do one 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.
Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

That’s most likely an indication that you are not logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog that you want to delete.

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
Your last resort for obtaining access is to complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery with as much information as possible 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.
