How to Delete Your Gmail Account

But WHY....Why would anyone on this earth want to delete their GMAIL account. Anywayz, I will still provide you with the solution.

No; you don't have to tell me any reason for your wanting to quit Gmail. I won't ask; not right now.

Gmail will ask you to click numerous times, of course, and for your password, too. Still, closing your Gmail account and deleting the mail in it is pretty straight forward a task.

Delete Your Gmail Account

To cancel a Gmail account and delete the associated Gmail address:

  • Go to Google Account Settings.
  • Follow the Edit link next to My products.
  • Click Remove Gmail permanently under Delete a Product.
    • You can also choose close account and delete all services and info associated with it to remove your entire Google account (including your search history, Google Docs, iGoogle page, AdWords and AdSense as well as other Google services).
  • Make sure. 'Yes, I want to permanently delete example@gmail.com and remove it from my Google account is checked.
  • Enter an alternative email address under New email address.
  • Gmail must have already put the secondary address you used when creating the Gmail account.
  • The alternative email address becomes your new Google account username.
  • Make sure you enter an email address to which you have access. You need that access to complete deleting your Gmail account.
  • Enter your Gmail password under Current password.
  • Click Remove Gmail.
  • Open the ""Gmail Removal Confirmation" email from "accounts-noreply@google.com" at the email address you specified as your new.
  • Follow the deletion link in it.
  • Type your Gmail password under Password.
  • Click Verify.
  • Keep in mind that you can NOT undo this step.
  • People who mail you on your old Gmail address will not get back a delivery failure message. Make sure you announce a new or alternate old address where ever desired.
