Hi pecacollection,
While you cannot delete your WordPress.com account, I can certainly help you remove your information and make your account inactive. First, you’ll have to delete your site, and I have provided those instructions below. Then, you can clear your personal information from your Account Settings by going here: https://wordpress.com/me/account
Once that is done, you can change your password to a random string of numbers and letters. This way, you will not be able to access the empty account again.
*To delete your site, first log in and go to My Site. On the left side, click Settings, then scroll down to where it says “Delete your site permanently”. You need to remove any upgrades first, such as Premium Themes, Domain Mapping, or a Business Plan. You can find further instructions to delete your site here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
Does that help?

Hi pecacollection,
Looks like you did already delete your site on this message, just make sure there’s no other site associated with your WordPress.com account before following those instructions.
Let me know if you need any assistance along the way.

Staff cannot and will not delete your account. You have to act on what follows.
Here’s how to deactivate your account:
Although username accounts are not deleted, so you cannot be impersonated and have your reputation affected by anyone registering the same username in the future, there are steps you can take that amount to removing all personal information and result in leaving only a throwaway email address behind. http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/1. You can go to My Account->Edit Profile at https://wordpress.com/me/account and remove all data except the account name and an email address. Create a throwaway email address and change the account email to that throwaway address. This only leaves the username behind.

2. To unsubscribe from email sent to you from WordPress.com, go here and click on “Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com”:

IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting sites and/or site content or making the site private does not remove indexed content from the SERPs (search engine page results) and we cannot help with that. Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months. To completely remove an entire page from Google search results after it produces a 404 (page not found):
