        Never a good experience however well it's handled. Had to do it in the past and once to a fellow contractor.

                Well if I haven't put the clues together from his threads about debt collectors and laying off people I never will, then again I could just be trying to defuse the situation with humor, but maybe I need to be less subtle and use the icon more?!

                I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.
