How to Permanently Delete a Facebook Account

Deactivation

1. 1
   Try a temporary deactivation. If you're not 100% sure that you want to permanently remove all that information, you can temporarily deactivate your Facebook account.
   
   
   

Delete Page Method

1. 1
   Visit the account deletion page. You will be reminded that this is a permanent deletion and that your account cannot be reactivated and that none of the content or information you have added can be retrieved.
   
   
   
2. 2
   Click "Submit." Follow the steps, such as entering your password, email, and CAPTCHA code.
   
   
   
3. 3
   Do not log in for the next 14 days and your account will be deleted completely.
   • If you change your mind before the 14 days are up, just log in and this will reactivate your account.

Email Method

1. 1
   Email Facebook directly. Contact privacy@facebook.com. Request that Facebook deletes your account.
   
   
   
2. 2
   Wait to get an email response from Facebook confirming that your account has been permanently deleted. This should take a few days.
3. 3
   If you don't hear back from Facebook within a week, email them again. This time, not only email Facebook at privacy@facebook.com, but also cc support@facebook.com and info@facebook.com.
   
   
   
4. 4
   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.
• You may need to avoid logging in for 14 days for the deletion to go through.
