Instructions are not at all clear. I have no droplets now, but I can’t deactivate my default account.

Hello @silvanetlobster

You can deactivate your account from the My Account page. To access the My Account page, click the profile icon in the top right of the control panel. In the menu that opens, click Manage Account.

On the My Account page, scroll to the Deactivate account section. In the Deactivate Account section of the account settings page and then click Deactivate Account.

Hi @silvanetlobster,

There is a Doc page about this here:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/accounts/deactivate/

Basically, you need to enter your Control Panel - https://cloud.digitalocean.com/projects

Once in, click on the top-right corner of your screen --> My Account --> Deactivate Account
