  Hello, so I created an account using the wrong email adresse (.co instead of .com) so I deleted it to try to use the username again as I register again with the right email adresse.

  Infortunatelly even though I deleted the account it seems the username is still unavailable.

  So is there a way to either be able to use the deleted username or get the account back?

  We note when you delete your user account that you can’t reuse the username. Also, we can only reactivate the account (if it’s within 30 days of deletion) if you can prove ownership of the account.

  Please send an email to passwordhelp (at) wordpress (dot) com explaining the situation, and Support will see if there’s anything they can do for you.

  I hope that helps.
