Ans: There are plenty of users who want to delete or deactivate their Reddit account but they get an error while they try to do so. If you too are having an error preventing you from deactivating your Reddit account then check out the following things before you begin the process again: Make sure you have entered your username or password correctly. Use old.reddit.com instead of using reddit.com to deactivate your account.
