Reddit is a social news and entertainment website where users can submit, vote on, and read articles. Some users may want to deactivate their Reddit account for personal reasons, such as wanting to stop receiving notifications about new posts. ..
Please note that as soon as all of your content is deleted, it cannot be restored due to the nature of how we store data. In addition, if you still have an open balance on a gift credit card or OYSC card then there’s no way for us to refund that money back onto a new payment method since we don’t have access to any external payment methods like bank accounts or credit cards.
Please send a quick email to [email protected] with the following:
