Ask HN: How do I delete my resurrected Facebook support?

4 points by sfilargi ↗ HN
I deactivated my FB acccount back in 2010. A couple of days ago I received an email saying that my account has been reactivated, and if I wasn't the one who did it I should visit the Help Center.

Long story short, I have to login to my account and ask it to be deleted/deactivated again.

Problem is that although I remember my password, it asks me to verify my birthday, which given that I didn't put my real one when I created the account, I don't remember what it was. When I fail to do so, it simply refuses me to login without giving any other option/suggestion.

This happened a couple of days ago. At first I gave up, and thought, fine, let it be.

But now I am starting getting email notifications about "friends" updates, which is kind of annoying.

Does anybody have any tips on how to contact FB support and ask them to delete the account?

Thanks!

Contacting Facebook support by email has been a nightmare for me they just don't respond. Until someone gave me a direct email of someone responsible for my region then it went much faster.
