Can we delete totally a Customer list without making them inactive but really erasing them?

I have just started with a new account and my first import is the customer list. However, it is all not correct, I would like to start from scratch. How can I do?

If you are using QBO Simple Start, you are unable to purge your account. You should cancel your QBO account and open a new blank QBO account.

then utilize the trial version of a 3rd party backup restore app during your setup

If you only need to delete (not make it inactive) an item list (i.e Customer) with no historical data, utilize a deleter tool
