Photobucket question (again)

Nailpicker · #1 02-18-2018, 10:22 AM

I've finally finished moving my hundreds of photos off Photobucket that I accumulated there since 2007. Now, I am trying to delete the account entirely and it won't let me. Anyone else have that problem? On the delete account page it wants me to "follow the below instructions to prove I am human," but there are no instructions. After hitting the delete button it just sits and does nothing. Any suggestions?

Oddly my account still works. Go figure. Not sure how to delete it. All my pictures are also on back up drives.

It'll always work. It's just you can't share pics any more.

Sounds like a browser problem. Did you try a different browser?

No. I'm using latest update of Firefox. Worked for my wife a few weeks ago when she deleted her PB account. I'll perhaps try IE. Thanks for the suggestion.

Surprise, surprise....to me. I tried MS Edge and it worked. I'm more than a little surprised that the latest Firefox didn't. Thanks for your suggestion.

You have a free account ?

I just abandoned it. I started deleting images, and lost interest. I've still got them all on my pc.

When I want to put an image up here I just put it up as an attachment using the paperclip icon ... but you do need to be a charter member which means giving a bit of money to the AGF - which is OK by me.
