I get so many emails like that--- you haven't been checking your emails from us! We're gonna stop sending! Meh. Fifteen emails later proves you aren't...

"All right babe, I know you've dumped me a couple of years ago, but I'm willing to give you one more chance."

I went out of my way to delete my account when i left 7 years ago. It was a pita to click through all the dark patterns but it worked.

I remeber when I was trying to delete my Facebook account I couldn't even find the option to do it. They "temporarily" removed the option because they were reworking the page or something like this... sure. In the end I ended up on a random website which gave me a link to the actual account deletion page. After that they were like: "Are you REALLY sure you want to delete your account? What will your family and friends think about this? 😭😭😭 You have 6 months to make up your mind. Please don't go"

Log in just to delete your account. The ultimate power move.

im pretty sure there is a delete option because I think I logged in and did that. Never got an email like this.

yeah photobucket told me my account would be deleted a month every day for the last two years too.

I was in NYC back in early 2020 and downloaded the Uber app for that, there was no Uber in my country at that point. I've never used it since then. I still get emails every fucking month that my Uber account is about to expire and be deleted unless I log in. For 3 years now. JUST FUCKING DELETE IT FFS

If you have an account for a service you don't need anymore, you should delete it. Who knows what kind of info they might leak because of some security mishap or an attack?

i think PSN does smth like that

Sometimes it's super silly too. Bought a car in 2023. Still get new emails every six months or so to check if I'd log back in to check the latest model. Dude. Your wagon still rolls and I won't buy another one until the first one legally can't be put on the road anymore.

I don't get what you are angry about. If it is one email before deleting I think that's pretty reasonable. You could have had some important-to-you conversations that you would be upset to lose.

If they keep sending stuff like this that is one thing. But I appreciate one or maybe two confirmations before someone deletes my data.

There should be a way to opt out of these messages.
