In the realm of social media, Facebook has reigned supreme for over a decade, connecting billions of users worldwide. However, with the advent of privacy concerns and the ever-changing digital landscape, some individuals may find it necessary to bid farewell to the ubiquitous platform. If you’re contemplating deleting your Facebook account, it’s important to note that the process varies depending on the device and interface you’re using. This article will focus on guiding you through the steps of deleting your Facebook account specifically through the Mbasic version.
Before embarking on the account deletion journey, it’s crucial to recognize that this is a permanent action. Once you delete your account, all your data, including posts, photos, videos, and messages, will be irretrievably lost. If you have any reservations or wish to preserve certain content, it’s highly recommended to download your Facebook archive as a safeguard. Once you’re prepared to proceed, navigate to the Mbasic version of Facebook, which offers a simplified and stripped-down interface compared to the standard desktop or mobile versions. This streamlined interface makes the account deletion process more straightforward.
Within the Mbasic version, click on the account menu located in the top right corner of the page and select “Settings.” Scroll down to the “Your Facebook Information” section and click on “Deactivation and Deletion.” You’ll be presented with two options: “Deactivate Account” and “Delete Account.” Choose “Delete Account” and follow the on-screen instructions to permanently remove your account from Facebook. Remember, this action cannot be undone, so proceed with caution and ensure that you’re ready to say goodbye to the platform.

1. Open your mobile web browser and go to the Facebook website(www.facebook.com).

Confirming Your Decision
Before proceeding with account deletion, it is crucial to carefully consider your decision.

If you have any doubts or wish to preserve certain information, you may want to download an archive of your data prior to deletion.

If you are absolutely sure that you want to delete your account, click on “Delete Account” once more. You will be required to enter your Facebook password to confirm your decision.
