Lately, a lot of people want to know how to delete a page in a contact recently. The social networks that have firmly entered our lives take our real life from us. This has been said more than once, and in order not to repeat ourselves, we will not raise this topic again. But about the “manifestation of firmness of character", as the current young generation jokes, we will talk in detail. After all, in fact, delete your VKontakte page comparable only to the exploits of epic heroes or knights. After all, we spend 2/3 of free time in front of the monitor, neglecting communication with family, playing sports, dancing, eating and even sleeping!
So there are several ways delete page in contact. Some are pretty easy, and some will take a few minutes of your time and a megabyte of internet. The fact is that after the creation of the social network, Pavel Durov did not provide for the possibility of deleting the user's page. What tricks did not go to people who changed their minds to remove their page from the Internet. VKontakte is currently the largest CIS network, and it is very much behind in terms of attendance. Which is not surprising, since VKontakte was created as a youth network, so the target audience is from six to 35 years old. Of course, there are older people, but they are not more than 9% of the total number registered.
It should be careful that your page possible to recover within 7 months, and for this, just go back to her. Such a long period of time is given to users so that they can test their endurance for strength. And also, as Pavel Durov explained, this is done so that in the event of an attacker breaking into your account, they could not be deleted permanently. Now it’s very easy to restore an account after deletion, just go to the site page to enter your former username and password and click on the “Restore” button.
And before, the user had to send a letter stating the data and the number of the mobile attached to the account to the site administration address. And only then, technical support, had the opportunity to restore the user’s page.
I will show you some ways showing how to delete a page in contact:
- Wrong ways. These are the ways quick delete. Those. your account will be deleted almost immediately, but it’s better not to use these methods, below I will explain why.
- The right way. It is only one, but it will allow you to delete the page in the contact immediately and forever, fail.
Read everything first, and then decide which of the proposed methods is best for you.
So, consider the first way to delete the page "VKontakte", which is now rarely used by anyone. It is rumored that the VKontakte support has made it so impossible to delete your account in this way and all data is stored forever in their database, but we won’t believe idle gossip and horror stories and boldly go off the beaten track. The method is somewhat long, but if you nevertheless decided to get rid of such dependence as an account on a social network, you should not stop it. We open our page in the contact and go to the "Settings".
Select "General" in the opened dialog box.
And put a tick on disabling commenting on the wall.
Then, go to the "Privacy" tab. Here, in absolutely all points, we select the "Only Me" mode and click the "Save" button.
Next, returning to your page, you should delete all information about yourself completely favorite, that is, video and audio files, your photos, information about your city, date of birth, habits and marital status. Do not forget! You must remove absolutely everything! The next step will be to turn off all alerts (by phone or mail). That's all, now you can safely leave the site. The main thing is to show willpower and does not appear there for a month. After that, the page will be deleted.
If the previous method did not manage to delete the page in the contact, then I can tell another one.
Before you leave the page, you should once again visit the settings of the “General” account, and, choosing the “Change password” column, drive in absolutely random numbers, either the phone number from the directory or the numbers from any check. That's all, you will not remember a similar password even under torture, and you will not be tempted to visit your page again. Although, for your safety, you need to eat a check, and throw out the directory with phone numbers, but rather burn it. JOKE!
Another way is original and incredibly easy! In order to delete a page in a contact, you just need to add Pavel Durov to the “Black List” and voila - your account has been deleted within 24 hours and without any proceedings.
The third method is somewhat immoral - it is to start sending spam from your account, and quite actively, as well as uncultivated communication and negative reviews on the page of Pavel Durov. But since we are all adults, we will go the way, albeit a long one, but not going against the moral principles and principles.
How to permanently leave a contact? The right way.
And, finally, the latest innovation of “Pavel Durov and Co.” is the ability to delete your page with three clicks of the mouse. Having logged in to the contact, go to the Settings menu
and by default, a dialog box opens on the General tab. Going to the very end of the page, we see an inscription informing about the ability to delete your page.
By clicking on the highlighted line, we will move on to the new “Delete Page” dialog box. Here we should dwell in more detail. At this point, you can choose for what reason do you want to delete the page. It does not matter that you were prompted by a lack of time or a fear of using your personal data. You can even tell your friends about deleting your account. But if you want to keep everything a secret (although this is unlikely to succeed, friends - having visited your page - will see that it has been deleted), then you can not tell anyone.
So, let's continue. If you do not want to inform your friends, you must uncheck the box "Tell friends."
For the reason of deletion, select any one you like or the “Other” tab (the field is optional). And click "Delete page".
And then a miracle happened! Your page has been deleted.
But do not rush to rejoice, because you can restore your account within 7 months, as the line at the top of the page kindly recalls. If you decide to restore the page, you should select one of the highlighted lines "Restore".
By clicking on it, you will instantly restore your account and go to the news section.
That's all, we examined in detail the possibilities delete your social network page. If you decide to spend more time away from the alluring world of virtual communication - go for it! And remember, do not throw your accounts into free swimming, it is better to delete any information about yourself than to erase spam messages from your phone or mailbox in hundreds.
P.S. By the way, if you have pages on other popular social networks that you want to delete, then read the relevant instructions - and

An alternative way to destroy an old page in VK
The way is that you need to restore access to it, and then delete it in the usual way.
If you still have questions - ask!
The VKontakte network allows users to destroy their page in several ways.
However, not immediately - after the deletion, the page will be available for recovery within seven months. This will give you time to think about whether you really want to leave VKontakte forever.
If you change your mind and decide to return, just go to the site with your username and password. In the left half of the window there will be a “Restore” button. After clicking on it, your page will be restored to its original form.
But! It is important to have time to do this no later than the date the page was completely deleted (the date is indicated in bold at the top of the window).
Well, now, since our story is about deleting your VKontakte profile, we’ll explore several ways to do this.
Delete using the settings menu
Open your page. From the menu under the photo, select “My Settings”.
Go down to the bottom of the window, staying on the “General” tab - there is a not too noticeable button “You can delete your page”. Click on it.
In the next window you will be asked to indicate the reason for the removal. You can choose one of the items, or you can write something from yourself. After that, your page will cease to exist.
Block access to the page and then delete
You can also liquidate your profile by another method - close the viewing of any page elements from everyone except yourself.
And do not go to the site for 2 to 3 months. Such abandoned accounts are eventually discovered by moderators and deleted.
- To block access to the page, open “My Settings” and the “Privacy” tab.
- Assign “Only Me” access mode to each of the privacy points.
- Save the settings and temporarily forget about “VKontakte”.
Delete page if no access
If an attacker took possession of your page and you, having lost access to it, decided to remove it - the easiest way to do this is with the help of technical support.
To do this, you will have to register on the social network again, best of all, with the same data that you had before.
After registering, go from your new page to the old one you want to delete.
At the bottom of the column below the photo is the “Report Page” button. Click on it.
In the “User Complaint” window, write a comment explaining why you are asking to delete the user’s VK page.
After reviewing your application, after about 3 to 7 days, your account will be blocked and then deleted. It would be better if all your friends or members of the support group send complaints to this user at the same time.
If the administration has not responded to your appeal, you can try to delete the page, having previously restored access to it.
For this:
Go to the site, select the “Help” item from the menu and click on the “My page has been hacked” button (or insert the link http://vk.com/restore in the address bar of the browser and open it);
On the access recovery page, specify your username, e-mail or phone number under which you registered;
Enter the captcha, and then the phone number to send you an SMS with a code for further recovery;
If your data has been changed or you don’t remember the phone that you linked to the page, click on the link at the very bottom of the form where it says “click here”;
You will have to remember the ID of your page or find it on the site through a search for people;
Most likely, you will be asked to send photocopies of your passport and personal photo to confirm that the page really belongs to you. Access after that you, probably, will be restored.
But is it worth it to spend so much work just to simply delete the page in Contact forever?
Technical Support Letter
If none of the previous options suited you, you can contact VKontakte with a request to delete the profile by writing a letter to [email protected].
Be prepared to provide evidence that the page you are deleting is really yours.
Provocative method
If you are a fan of custom solutions, you can achieve the deletion of your user account by violating the rules of the site.
For example, place some kind of advertisement instead of personal data and start mass spamming. Or find a place in your profile for obscene content (pornography). Make sure - in less than a month, they will block you first, and then they will remove them.
We hope that the described methods for all occasions will be more than enough. You now know that after the deletion, the page will “live” and wait for your final decision for another seven months.
This is quite enough to once again think twice and ... again to return to your favorite social network or to leave it forever.
Every day on social networks, people spend their free, and sometimes work time. But sometimes there is a need to delete all personal information along with the page. The reasons are different - often hackers crack accounts or the user is simply tired of spending his life communicating in the virtual world. Where to start if there is a need to delete a page in a contact?
Official way
- Visit your VKontakte social network page.
- Select “My Settings” from the menu.
- At the bottom of the page, find the inscription “You can delete your page” and follow the link.
- Indicate the reason for deletion by selecting it from the list (or by calling your individual one) and selecting the “checkbox”.
- Click the "Delete Page" button.
It is interesting that when you select a reason, a message is generated automatically, and such a message puts the user in a rather stupid position, especially if he does not uncheck the “Tell friends” box. Most likely this is done so that the user changes his mind about deleting the account.
In order to prevent the user's personal data from appearing anywhere without his knowledge (for example, on dating sites), it is advisable to clear the deleted page from correspondence, photos, videos and other materials before deleting a page on VKontakte. At the same time, make sure that the changes made are saved.
This method of deleting a page was introduced not so long ago. Previously, in order to delete a page, a number of tricky manipulations were necessary. There were a lot of tips, including recommendations to start a spammer's activity, in order to provoke a moderator to delete a page without the right to restore.
Uninstall via phone
Those who are not attracted to such a simple option may do otherwise. There is another way to delete a page:
- register a new Vkontakte account, indicating the same phone number to which the old page is linked;
- when requesting a service to replace the page, answer yes.
Maintaining confidentiality on the Internet is a whole problem, especially considering the fact that people themselves post all the information about themselves on social networks. To control the distribution of personal information, it is better not to upload it to the Network, then you will not need to delete the account.
Dependence on the virtual world is a serious problem, and the decision to delete the page is only the first attempt to recover from it. Whatever the reason that led to the removal of your page from the Web, it is important to do it correctly and irrevocably.
