  Not to worry as Staff can help with this and I tagged the thread for their attention. What is the URL of the blog you are trying to delete please?

  Please, I have a similar issue. I wish to delete the site, press the permanent delete button and the confirmation link never arrives. Before you ask, yes the email is correct…

  My blog is formulaoneupdate.
  Any help is greater appreciated

  Have you looked in your email client spam/junk mail filter for it?
  Is this the URL of the blog you wish to delete? http://formulaoneupdate.wordpress.com/

  Yes I have checked multiple times that it is not in the junk mail.
  About a month ago, I changed email address hut never received the authorization link for it. As a result, I receive notifications from the blog on one email, and news and updates from WordPress on the other. Total mess.
  I have used wp a long time but have encountered such big issues to what would be a very simple thing to fix. Just delete my damn blog. Someone!

  Volunteers cannot delete the blog. As I said above this thread is tagged for Staff. Please be patient while waiting. If you find it annoying that you have to wait then why not make the blog private in the interim? Dashboard > Settings > Reading

  hable for the reply, but what do you mean by making it private? Is that so it won’t show up in.search results?
  I’ll be waiting for a solution to why it is so hard to complete that last step.
  Thank you again

  If you want I can delete the blog for you. Note that blog deletion is permanent and the name can never be used again. Please reply to confirm.

  If you want to temporarily hide your blog instead, please use privacy option so only you and logged-in members of the blog can view it.
