  Hi there!

  For security reasons, WordPress.com account can not be deleted. However, you can easily delete your blog.

  You can reset your password using the lost password form.

  Enter your WordPress.com username or email address into the text box and click Get New Password.

  An email will be sent to the email address associated to that WordPress.com account.

  To reset your password, click on the button in the email that says Reset Password. Clicking on this link takes you to a form that prompts you to enter your new password twice.

  Be sure to click Reset Password at the bottom and you’re all set.

  Here’s more information on the password reset process:

  Once you have regained access to your account, you can just leave your account inactive. To unsubscribe from any email notifications from WordPress.com, go to your subscription settings and check the box that says Block Emails and click Save. See the subscriptions support page for more information about this.
