You don't even have such a right legally, but I don't have time to deal with this since I don't live in the USA. If you do not close an account without a phone, you should not open an account without a phone. Why do I have to call you, what a farce!
What do i do now to close the account??

Why do you make it so hard for users to delete their accounts? Why can't you just simply let your users decide? The subpage that should allow us to delete accounts doesn't work! Thanks

Just set your status to unavailable and stop using your account.
How would "deleting" your account benefit you?
