Unable to Delete My Account
-
I am trying to delete my account, but when I log in (using my password and email, or using my password and username) WordPress tells me I do not have the privileges to access the account. Yet, I am the only person who has access, and only created one post. I can not see any tools on the dashboard. I have cleared my cache and history, but still seem unable to delete the account. Any help would very much be appreciated.

http://healingwisely.wordpress.com/
Hello. I am the creator, owner and administrator of this blog. It has one post. I would now like to delete it, so it will not be confused with something else I hope to put online. However, when I log in, using the password, there is no way for me to access the regular control panel.
I get a message: that says …
You do not not have the necessary privileges to access the dashboard for “healingwisely”. Please ask an administrator of the site to invite you.
I would appreciate any help that can be given. Thank you.

You nned to be logged in to WordPress.com the username account that created http://healingwisely.wordpress.com/ in order to delete it.

I fumble fingered that comment above so here we go again:
You need to be logged in to WordPress.com under the username account that created http://healingwisely.wordpress.com/ in order to delete it.

No worries; and thanks for your help. I think that I am logged in with the username the account was created with, because I only ever used one username that I can recall (I only posted one blog entry, one time). Is there a way to fix, or ask someone to help with either the username or deletion? Thanks again.

Thanks very much. Originally there might have been a slightly different user name, but when I try to use it it does not allow me to log in. I suspect there is a technical glitch somewhere, and something needs to be reset. In any event I’m just hoping for some help to delete the blog. Thanks again. I appreciate the help.

Could there be a typing error in the URL or the username or the email address? Please examine them all closely.

Many people are reporting username issues over the past few days. Something is broken somewhere.
-
Thanks for the help, and ideas. I have tried logging in both with the username and with my email. Neither one works. I think it is the case that something may be amiss somewhere. Thanks again.

That is, I can log in … but neither way of logging in allows me to access to the dashboard … or to delete the blog.

http://healingwisely.wordpress.com/ is not owned by your matm5 account.
You need to log in as the WordPress.com account which owns the blog before you can delete it.

Thanks very much everyone for your help. Though I try to make them infrequently, this was my mistake. I have corrected it and will delete the blog. Again, sincere thanks for your time and attention.
