How to Delete your Facebook Account.

Facebook has become an addiction nowadays. If you want to get rid of this addiction, you can simply delete your Facebook account by following these steps :

i)     Make a backup of Facebook contacts and notify your friends.
  •  Since you will no longer have an access to Facebook you better make a backup of all your Facebook contacts, in order to remain in touch with your close ones.
ii)    Uninstall all your Facebook account apps.
  • After completing account deletion process you must not have any access to Facebook via any pre-installed apps. So, better uninstall them.
iii)   Now it's time to Quit.
  • After completing the above two processes, go to the following URL http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=delete_account. After this click Submit.
iv)   Think twice.
  • After this a message will appear which is "You are about to permanently delete your account.Are you sure?" Enter your password, pass the security check and click "Okay".
v)    Final check.
  • Another check in will appear reading whether you want to permanently delete your account. Click "Okay" to continue.
vi)   Do not Revert.
  • You will then be redirected out of the login screen. Remember not to login again in two weeks, as in this case your account will be reactivated.
vii)  Ignore the E-mail you receive from Facebook.
  • Facebook will send you an E-mail saying that "Your account is scheduled for deletion". Ignore it and do not login again.
viii) Accidental login.
  •  Within the span of two weeks, if you login accidentally into your Facebook account, you will receive a message containing two options "Deactivate Account" and "Cancel Request". Do not select any of them. Deactivate Account will lead to deactivation instead of deletion and Cancel Request will lead to cancellation of your request for deletion. The appropriate option is to close the running browser.
