How Can I Permanently Delete My Facebook Account ?
Before you delete your account permanently be sure that’s what you want to do, because once you delete it you won’t be able to retrieve it.
If you are not sure that you will never use that account again then go ahead and permanently delete your account. Once you delete it, you’ll not be able to reactivate your account or retrieve any of the content or or information you have added.
1> Go to http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=delete_account ,
2> Click on SUBMIT only if you are sure you want to delete the account.
3> Once you click on Submit, you’ll be taken to a page, where upon clicking OKAY your account will be permanently deleted forever.
You’ll be given a chance to reactivate it by logging into your account within next 14 days after deleting the account. Once you login you’ll be given the option to cancel your request. You can rethink about your decision.

I wanted to delete my Facebook account due to no response from Facebook in over three weeks. I have been requesting an email for a Password reset to no avail. My frustration grew when I had to input my password to delete my account. All I can say is “WHAT THE HELL?” Who is writing your programs? Obviously, they are not getting paid the big bucks of the GREAT CEO!
You can definitely tell the customer service or lack there of experienced by me and all the others who were locked out and also looking for answers is making an impact on Facebook…Especially, when I googled “How do I delete my Facebook Account?” and over 15,000,000 people had googled the question before me. (You might want to start paying attention to the Data)
I think Harvard forgot to teach you a couple things…You can’t market a product without customer service…Maybe you should have spent some of your millions teaching your staff how to do basic operations: answering emails, talking on the phone, coming into work, turning on a computer, etc…
All I can say is…Grow up!!! It was your idea to start this business at a young age…If you and your crew can’t handle it…Give it up!! You can’t continue to receive an “F” from the BBB in Customer Service for long!
I’ll be watching!
I have a related question. I accidently deleted my son’s Facebook account when a tried to add an extra e-mail contact to my Facebook. That email was the one his Facebook was attached to. Once the email became associated with my account his account disapperered. Is there a way to re-access his account? We’ve had no luck with Facebook. Thanks!
@Denise – If it’s less than 14 days since this happened, you can contact FaceBook team and request them to reinstate the account. Also, make sure you delete his id from secondary account. When you make it a secondary account, it deletes the previous account by default.
please delete my face book account permently
@Lisa – You need to Raise a request by visiting the URL given in the post.

@Bonnie – Follow the procedure mentioned in the post. Your Facebook account should be completely deleted in 14 days.
@Bonnie – From computer in the sense do you mean from history of your Browser (Firefox / Internet Explorer) ?
I have tried to delete my facebook account, and it keeps saying an error in doing so. Please delete my account!
i think the website should give a proper procedure for deleting a FaceBook account.
I created a “page” on facebook for a business. I accidentally converted it to a personal profile. Facebook’s Help says you *can* convert a page to a profile, but you can *not* convert from profile to page. So if I delete (not just deactivate, but totally delete) the profile, will the page also be deleted? (currently, both seem to exist.) If the page is deleted with the profile, will I be able to re-create the *page* using my business name? (currently, the profile has the business name.)
The funniest and most frustrating thing happened today.
I clicked on the link you gave, hit Submit, and waited a whoooooooole hour before the next step began. By then, I was just like, Let’s get this over with. So I type in my password, and the Security Check, and hit Submit again.
Then the same box appears, saying:
Incorrect Email/Password Combination
What the heck??
See, I’ve logged in today, for too many times using the same password.
There can’t be any mistake. I’ve even typed it on Notepad and pasted that on the Password box. I’ve been trying to delete it for more than 20 times, in one sitting. If time is money, I’m drying up.
Just to add, my Internet connection is fine, and was fine while I was trying to delete. It took a whole hour for the dialog box to appear, so to kill time I was surfing other websites in the net. My Internet connection could not have interrupted that process.
@Weyn – May be the servers at Facebook was down and that was causing the problem. Request a new password and try logging into your account before you try to delete the account. Once you are sure that it’s working fine, the guess you should try deleting it. Let me know how the password retrieval goes !
@Weyn – I’m having the same problem right now. We aren’t the only ones….http://www.facebook.com/help/question.php?id=264568. I’m annoyed. I’m trying to delete an account someone created by accidentally using my email address instead of their own.
I’ll add that I have already changed the password, then used it to log in. This problem is NOT related to typing the wrong password. You are not crazy!

i want my facebook account gone not to say 14 days decline w.e i want it gone like badly !!!!!!
@Tommie – I don’t think that’s possible. Do you mean to say gone away from Google’s index or deleted from Facebook itself.
If it’s the former, then you’ll have to wait till Google indexes or re-indexes and nobody can take a call on that.
If you want to delete it from Facebook, then then effect is immediate. The moment you delete it, it’s not available to others, but you’ll have an option to re-open it, with in 14 days, if you want to.
I Will like to cancel my facebook but no reason to say.

The BAD NEWS is, what I have gathered, that even if you delete your Face Book account your data is still intact and backed up and open for Big Brother, the pigs in the New World Order, intelligence agencies on the planet and the likes to access at every second of the day. The New World Order wants your mind and life to control! Resist The New Word Order. Say no to a one world government, one currency and microchip implants now.
My mother changed from att to gmail and instead of going into he old account and changing the e-mail she created an account under the new address. Needless to say her friends are all on the old account and I can no longer change to the new e-mail address because an account already exists. I have tried twice to delete the new account. i waited 14 days – there are no friends on there to provide activity and the account fails to delete. She is 87 and wants to see the pictures of her grandchildren but they no longer come to her account because of the e-mail change. My family and I would turn to another social network in protest but there seems to be no way to to delete. Shame on you!!!!!!!!!!
