Hi Jyoti,
Well I never created any business fan page on facebook but I guess I’ll create one page sooner may be this month. I guess this tutorial will be really useful if I ever wanted to delete any page.
I am trying to delete a business page that I did not create. It has the same name as my business page. I have contacted FB months ago and they have not responded or removed the page. I tried using your tutorial but it doesn’t work. When I go to the page I want to delete, there is no settings option in the drop menu as your tutorial suggests. Please advise. Thank you.

A family member in California created a Facebook page to harass our business and leave completely false negative reviews. How can we remove the unauthorized page from Facebook ? We tried the posted methods for removal with no success.
Hi Bill,
Use third method to report that page.
I deleted myself from admins of a page, but it still showed on the left under “Pages”, what should I do?
I apologize for my mistakes, I just typed really fast, and now I can’t edit…
Ok I no longer need help, it’s gone!
I’ll be using the 1st option – delete page, but need to know if I’ll be able to reuse the page name immediately to recreate the page under the right personal FB page! Great tutorial BTW
Im new to all this, THIS IS MY SITUATION: My boss said it was ok to make a separate page for our second business location. Not knowing what I was doing, started a new account, when asked my name, I put it in. Then started a PAGE with the new business. Question is, CAN I DELTE THE NEW ACCOUNT WITH MY PERSONAL NAME, YET KEEP THE BUSINESS PAGE FOR THE BUSINESS? or CAN I LINK THE NEW BUSINESS PAGE TO HIS OTHER FB PAGE, WHICH BY THE WAY SAYS THE BUSINESS NOT HIS PERSONAL NAME? THATS WHAT I NEED FOR THIS SECOND LOCATION, NOT MY NAME AND THE BUSINESS, JUST THE BUSINESS! tHANK YOU!
I have 2 facebook pages. I want to delete 1 (the duplicate that was created when my phone was wiped out. I did follow method 1. However, neither on my real facebook page or my duplicate facebook page gives me the option on the drop down menu to click on any page to start the deleting process. So, now what do I do? thanks
Great tutorial thanks.
If page is deleted permanently can it be recreated. I created a business page under my personal FB account and want to delete it and set up independently with own email address and business address separately. i think this is Fiona’s question
Once the steps are followed to delete the facebook page, should it not be appearing anymore immediately, or do we have to wait for days to take into effect?
Hi Jmac,
It will not appear after deleting immediately.

I have an account with a business page inside of the original account. I want to delete that account page from my account, but your guide has choices listed that do not appear in my current facebook page. Help please.
Ok , I am really stuck!! I thought I updating FB per their request. Now I have a page with my name and a picture of my granddaughter. When I select news feed it goes to my account. If I go under apps it’s not there. From reading on google I think it’s a fan page. I can’t post from it and I it takes me to my main page settings. I’m stuck!! Can you HELP!!!
Jackie, if you are admin of a Page you want to keep but you created the page under a false account, log in as your REAL Facebook account and LIKE the page. Send a friend request to your fake id from your real account while you are there.
Now log in as your fake account, accept the friend request from your real account. Go into the page settings, select page roles and add your real account name as administrator.
Log into your real account again, accept the nomination as administrator. Go to the page settings, remove your fake account as administrator.
Log into your fake account and delete your fake account.
The page will then exist with your real account as administrator.
Cheers

How to delete your fb account. Your own account not just only deactivated but deleted permanently.
Appreciate your urgent response my dear friends.
Having a really bad day. I lost a large amount of pictures on my camera. The only copies were on a Facebook account I recently requested to have deleted. Made request on February 5th and had 14 days before deletion. Is there a chance I can recover this Facebook account?
i used the feature to turn your facebook profile into a page. i want to delete this and do it over again from the same profile, can i do this?
How can i delete a page that i created and managed, but the account that manages it has been deactivated by facebook? So i cant have access to manage this page anymore. Can I report it or have it back?
Thank you.
I started to create a page and didn’t complete the process. I made it to upload a picture. Now it’s show up on my manage pages, but I would like to delete it. I created a new page with the same name and completed the process. How do I get rid of the one that was not finished. It doesn’t have a settings button because it was never completed.
