How can I delete my Facebook account immediately – This post will show you how to delete your Facebook account permanently. Now that you are tired of Facebook and you are confused about the decision to take whether to close it temporarily or permanently. The difference between deleting and deactivating is quite clear and easy to grasp.

Closing your Facebook account temporarily means DEACTIVATION and closing it permanently means FACEBOOK DELETION. Below are the differences between them both.

If you choose to deactivate your account:

  1. You can reactivate whenever you want.
  2. People can’t see your Timeline or search for you.
  3. Some info may remain visible (for example messages you sent).

If you choose to delete your account:

  1. You can’t regain access once it’s deleted.
  2. Deletion may be delayed a few days after it’s requested. A deletion request is canceled if you log back into your Facebook account during this time.
  3. It may take up to 90 days to delete data stored in backup systems. Your info isn’t accessible on Facebook during this time.
  4. Some things aren’t stored in your account. For example, a friend may have messages from you after deletion.
  5. Copies of some material (for example log records) may remain in Facebook’s database but are disassociated from personal identifiers.

So, if you choose to close your Facebook account temporarily or Deactivate your account, here’s how to go about it.

You are advised to download a copy of your Facebook data before you delete your account for future purposes. To download a copy of your Facebook data:

  2. Select “Settings”
  3. Click on the link at the bottom of the main menu that says “Download a copy of your Facebook data”.

If you have the steps above correctly, your Facebook account will be deleted immediately but you may have to wait for 90 days before everything concerning your account will be deleted.

To be on the safer side, after 90 days, don’t still log back to your Facebook account because your tracking of days might incorrect. I will advise you use your friend’s account to find your account. If you don’t see it, know that the deletion has worked.
