How do you delete your account???

I want to delete this stupid, useless account, because I don't need it. I have never had a subscription, just a client who foolishly signed up to crapbooks. I have since advised her to change to better software.
All I keep getting are emails saying "you need to do something extra before we can delete", yet when I click the link in the email, I have to sign in and takes me to a page where there is no mention of it needing anything.
After I had gone round this email-useless link root three times, I then noticed something saying you have to cancel your subscription before you can delete your data. I clicked on the link which said "how to cancel your subscription" - guess what? A blank page!
Not only is your software useless, you can't even show people how to leave your nightmare.
Just delete my flipping data, you morons!

That's what I did and - as I thought I said pretty clearly - I get an email telling me I need to do something else.

Try reading my post again and give some thought to your answer this time.

It's amazing that you people are still in business. You are so bad at writing software, you can't even let someone delete their data.

 

You have 7 days to sort this out, or I will be placing an official complaint under GDPR with the ICO.

Hello Mjitaxstuff-hotm, having had a look in the system we can see 2 out of the 3 accounts you have with us is are showing as active so you need to get these cancelled first before you will be able to delete the accounts. 

 

In the system it is showing 

an inactive self-employed account 

An active essentials account 

And an active plus account 

 

That is why you're getting the message about the subscription needing to be cancelled. 

 

Please call our cancelations team on 0808 168 4280 to close the account/s, their line is open Mon - Fri 9am - 5.30pm and is free from UK mob & landlines.
