| WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Tony Palazzo | 2/4/13 8:17 AM | I have followed the instructions for deleting one of the Google+ pages I manage... switch to that page, go to settings, go to the bottom and select delete page.

| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Kaleh | 2/4/13 9:01 AM | This is the second report I've seen of this. It does sound very odd. Would you mind providing screen shots of the page where you are selecting "Delete page" and the screen that you are being redirected to? Can you grab the URL for the "Delete Page" |

| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Kaleh | 2/4/13 1:05 PM | Ahhh ... got it! I went one step further and went forward with the page deletion. I saw a red "Deleting Page" banner at the top of the screen, and was bounced back to the login screen. When I logged back in, I see what you see. You certainly have g |

| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Sky B | 2/5/13 2:30 PM | Hi folks, Apologies for the confusion. Since a unique Google account is created for your page, deleting a page requires you to delete the account for that page. But given that deleting an account is a big, irreversible step, I can understand some rel |
| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Michael Coorey | 2/5/13 4:33 PM | A good clarification, thanks Sky. One case in which it doesn't help: for example: My page was created unintentionally by just going to "Pages" to see what it was for. The default page name created was the name of the original identity of the underl |
| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Kaleh | 2/5/13 5:22 PM | @Michael Coorey It would be highly unusual for a page to be automatically created by just clicking on the "Pages" icon in the vertical ribbon on the left side of your Google+ screens. If that were the case, Google would definitely need to look into |
| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Michael Coorey | 2/5/13 7:04 PM | @Kaleh No question you are correct. I was experimenting in unfamiliar territory (had just started trying to use G+) so anything is possible. Of course accidentally creating a page would be no problem if it could be easily deleted without fear of de |

I selected a duplicate page for deletion; I get a message with title "Delete Google account for xxxx" I have cancelled the workflow at this stage and I did not select without "Delete Google Account" button, which is |
| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Kaleh | 2/7/13 7:08 AM | @Kesava Did you see Sky's response that indicates: ... if the account deletion page says Delete Google Account for <Page Name>, this deletes the page's account, not your personal account While the messaging is very alarming and confusing, he has ind |

| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Andrea Schroeder | 2/19/13 12:58 PM | Thanks everyone - Google should really consider changing the workflow and instructions for deleting a page! I accidentally created two Google + pages for the same business... one under my business Google account and one under my personal account. Try |
| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Andrea Schroeder | 2/19/13 5:02 PM | Well, I pulled the trigger and deleted the page - hoping that the information here was accurate. Looks like it worked and deleted the duplicate page only. Just make sure it says the page name when you are deleting (I changed mine to something weird b |

| Re: WIll deleting a Google+ page delete my entire account? | Sky B | 3/7/13 9:39 AM | Hi Oh Dear, When you say that the default/primary email address for sending and receiving email changed when you enabled Google+ on the account, do you mean that the name that appears in the people's inbox when you send email changed to the name on t |
