I didn't know I couldn't delete my own posts, I have put some information out here and I regret it. Please tell me how I can have these deleted? I have emailed and reported the posts and they haven't been deleted! This isn't fair

It can take a while, maybe day or two to be deleted too. They do get back to you tho

They should delete it if you ask regardless of their opinions. This is dangerous for people who don't understand how Mumsnet works

Is there any identifying information in your posts? They can remove them for that.

They don’t work 24 hours a day - if you’ve only reported in the last couple of hours then it might not go until tomorrow morning. If you post on The Night Shift then the volunteers there have overnight access to hiding posts and threads I think.

It's quite late now so they won't see the reports, best bet is posting in the section "night watch" and they should hide the thread until tomorrow and then the mods will decide whether or not to delete it depending on info etc

Go to the post and report it. Using the menu ... thing in the corner.
