Trapped by twitter

I want to deactivate my account then leave for 30 days and let it die.

I cannot get in. My password will not work.
I asked for a verification email and that wont work.

I asked to change my password to get in and the confirmation code didnt work.
Godammit I WANT OUT!

I cant afford to waste 8 bucks a month on a greedy ass billionaire.

They don't have my info either.

I actually have two twitter accounts. I don't think
either of them have any of my information, not even
my name.

Fucking days I finally deactivated my account. It happened after I posted this:

"I want to delete my twitter account. My password wont work.
The password change confirmation code won't work.

I tried every way possible but I cant access my account to deactivate and delete it!!!

I want out ,musk.I cannot afford on my tiny income to waste 8 bucks a freaking month on a billionaire that has enough income to feed two continents for years.

I'm beginning to wonder if musk is a common thief.

Let me out!"


Suddenly after saying that all the links worked and I got in to my account and deactivated it. In like 2 minutes.Than I deleted the twit app.

Thanks Sekhmet!!!

Finally I decided to give it a go on my desktop rather than my phone, and I was able to deactivate. Try a desktop or laptop (if you haven’t already done that).

are deactivating their accounts. I would love to see Twitter die and then I will be able to give Musk credit for one good thing he's accomplished.

I will be proud to say that I contributed to Twitter’s downfall in some tiny way. 😆

Most of us don't need to be verified since no one knows who we are. It's more for famous people.
