Try to log in from Europe, or change the details of your account to day Europe. Because with gdpr in Europe they are obligated to let you delete it.
there's something incredibly satisfyingly ironic about using a vpn to cancel your vpn
He used the vpn to destroy the vpn
I just tried to delete my inactive NordVPN account from a European IP (not through a VPN, I actually live there). Spent 10 minutes searching for a delete option without luck. The only way seems to be by submitting a form (which for some reason also requires "payment info"). Sketchy as fuck.
If you are European, I believe there is some government office you can complain to about gdpr violation (can’t help more sorry, I believe it is a little different from country to country)
