    Default Facebook

    How do I cancel my facebook account?

    It seems they want to make it virtually impossible to do so.

    Thanks

    You go to account settings and select "deactivate". You won't get a refund though.

    One does not simply cancel one's Facebook account.

    You can only "deactivate" your Facebook account you can not "cancel" or "delete" it.

    At the top right click on the arrow pointing down. Then go to "Account Settings" Then click "Security" on the left, then in the middle click "Deactivate your account."

    Deactivate is the best you can do. Then walk feeling free at last.

    And you can always return. Everything will be exactly as you left it.

    Deleting your facebook account seems impossible to do, but it is possible.

    What you do is you go to Facebook Help.

    From there, type in "delete account", look for the relevant result. Then it will ask you to type in your password to authenticate the deleting of your facebook account. It will say that it will delete your account after 2 days (something like that, i cant remember, i deleted my account a long time ago). Just do not login for those days, and your account is now deleted from facebook.
