In reply to Todd.P. 1 year and half several sweary messages at twitter mgmt and still they send me how to instruction. deactivate 12 times in year and half. wrote 2 letters to twitter telling them to close my acct still nothing I can't use it because of current format. Short of going to HQ and slapping some heads together but I can't afford air fare. I lock my account and frequently change passwords to keep bots and scammers from using my account. I wish I had never started. FB the same thing they hold onto my info though told them I wanted to close. So if the owner of Twitter ever is in where I live going to kick him in the arse for all the idiocy this is to close an account. They suspended me more than once over tweeting too much and they change format over a year ago so I quit. their new format I cannot read or understand it to use it. So if anyone is near twitter HQ in the states can you tell them to eff off for me would make me feel better. Twitter is as much shyte as some of the idiots more famously known who are allowed to keep accounts and ok with ppl threatening other users which was the other reason why I left or trying to leave.

I thought you were gonna tell us how to skip the 30 day wait and do it permanently. I don’t want to delete my account but I do think the 30 day wait is ridiculous. I remember when it used to be a 24 hour wait. So much better than 30 days,

My Twitter accounts either do not deactivate bc my phone is logged in and I deactivate from my computer or deactivate early … after only a week of inactivity… maybe they know I will never come back LOL anti-social media u gotta love it NOT!

I’m having the same problem as theo. I keep deactivating and someone must be hacking it and reactiveating, it’s happened a couple of times now! I haven’t even used this count in years and even then only tweeted like three times.

I have been trying for a year to “deactivate” my account. I have followed the steps outlined per Twitter. I have received confirmation that account will be deleted in 30 days. HOWEVER, within 7 days I receive notices from Twitter that account has been reactivated.
This has been going on for almost a year…round and round. Any and all contact information to Twitter does not work (at least what I have found).
So I am not sure what to make of the procedure that Twitter has. For me, it does not work.
Any solutions?

I don’t think we should be shocked that any FREE service is going to be farming and storing data around usage, relationships and other data we might pump through the service. Nothing is free and everyone needs to make money — including companies that provide these free services. Ad revenue is just 1 say and data aggregation is the other.

Can blame them, I think people just need to be aware of it. Good article Austin. I’m not going to nuke my account but it’s all good to know.
