Could not print a pdf; stated I must be a pro. I clicked the 3 month button, when it should have been just a month. I only wanted just one article. How do I cancel the three month and make it just a one month?

I don't know how I got signed up on here but I noticed a payment taken out of my account for this site. Can you please email me and let me know how this happened and let me know how long the subscription is for, etc? I will probably cancel but need to know how it got started in the first place. Thank you.

Will people please stop asking *me* to delete your accounts?  I do not have the authority to do that.

You need to send a PM to Randy or email the site: info [at] instructables.com

To help us improve the site, could you also include in your message the reason why you would like to cancel your account?

Thank you.

Hello, I am here on behalf of my sister. She is unfortunately deceased. She passed away 4 months ago and I am just trying to clean up the last few bits and pieces that need to be taken care of now... I've been going through computer sorting through memberships, etc. and I came across her membership here. Is it possible you could please remove/delete this account? Many Thanks, Regina B.

 I really don't understand why this instructable account has to be deleted. Just make the new one and never use this one...

Don't delete it. If you want to stop using the site for a while, do so. The account will still be waiting for you whenever you decide to come back.

Why do you want to delete your account ?
