Hello @voomdelivery

Also in order to deactivate an account all resources (droplets, snapshots, spaces and etc) need to be removed or transferred from the account in order to complete the process.

Hi @voomdelivery,

I’ll recommend you to check the following article:

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

When you deactivate an account, you have the option to permanently remove the account’s data from DigitalOcean, including email and billing information. Purging this data means you cannot reactivate the account in the future, so you would need to create and verify a new account to use DigitalOcean again.

In it, are the steps to achieve what you are looking for
