I don't know about Skype.

I do know you can't cancel fb - you can deactivate the account so google for tht, but it isn't easy to do and it still remains there its just not live at that moment.

Another reason why fb is the spawn of the devil.

Skype, just don't sign in, to cancel your Facebook go to Accounts.

I need to get them fully off. I need to be untraceable. No one must be able to find me.

But Rhonda is right, your FB will remain, but is inactive and won't show up. Just strip out all photos and information.

I think you're doing the right thing, and I hope you're feeling better now. :)

No, I only feel worse. I get to delete skype too. So no one can ever see any information that was ever there.

Please help me

Could you change your name on fb first as if you had got married? Change the city thst you live in and make the profile picture of soneone else. Delete all the photos and then deactivate it.
