How do you delete your account on Facebook?

METHOD 1

1

Make sure your Facebook account contains a contact e-mail address (such as Yahoo or Gmail).

2

Delete any college, high school, or work e-mail addresses listed in your Facebook account. Your contact e-mail should be the only address listed.

3

Deactivate your Facebook account. (Under Settings)

4

Register using an e-mail address other than your contact e-mail (a college, high school, or work e-mail is fine).

5

Once you are signed into your new Facebook account, add your contact e-mail address to the account. Open the link in the confirmation e-mail that has been sent. This step will wipe out your previous Facebook account, rendering it inaccessible.

METHOD 2

1

To ensure Facebook has none of your vital information you should sign in delete all networks, photos, friends, inbox/outbox messages, contact info, and basically anything connecting you to the page.

2

Go to bottom of home page click on help which will lead you to help center.

3

At help center skip over the options and go to permanently delete. This should be number 3 on the list of help options; on a list on the right of the help center page.

4

Follow the steps which maybe... included you typing in your log in information such as email, password, and a captcha.

5

Do not log in for the next 14 days and it will be deleted completely. However, if you change your mind before the 14 days period, just log in and this will reactivate your account!

6

To speed up the process and if the above failed email Facebook directly at privacy@facebook.com and request them to delete your account.

7

Wait to get an email response from Facebook confirming that your account has been permanently deleted. This should take a few days.

8

If you don't hear back from Facebook within a week, email them again at privacy@facebook.com. As well as support@facebook.com and info@facebook.com.

9

Finally, attempt to log in to your account once you get an email from Facebook. If you're unable to log in and don't get a message asking you to reactivate your account, your Facebook account has been permanently deleted.
