ByHow to Delete a UPS Account Easily
More than 100 years ago, the United Parcel Service (UPS) began as a small messenger service; the brainchild of two teenage entrepreneurs. Since that time, UPS has grown to become one of the leading package delivery services worldwide, with more than half a million employees and 24.7 million packages delivered daily. Many customers obtain online services from the company by creating an online account through its website.
However, because most people only use their UPS accounts once in a while, it is easy to forget sign-in information that will allow them to keep the account active or delete it. Fortunately, can help you delete your old UPS account easily, without having to reset your password.
Reasons to Delete Your Old UPS Account
Within 90 days of non-use, 78 percent of people will forget the passwords they use to sign up for online services. Surveys indicate that 3 out of 10 people find resetting a password to be as stressful as retirement. There are several important reasons why you should from UPS and other companies, though, including:
- Inactive accounts are seldom monitored, making them easy targets for data breaches.
- If your inactive account is breached, it could result in your private information getting into the hands of strangers.
- If you have recycled a password that you used for your old account, it is easier for strangers to track you and access other accounts.
- Unauthorized access to your account can result in unwanted charges to the credit card associated with it, as well as making you susceptible to spam, email scams, and other hazards.

After that, follow these steps to delete your UPS account:
- Log in by entering the email associated with that account and your password.
- Click on your user name in the upper right-hand corner.
- Select "My Information" from the drop-down menu.
- Click on "Delete My Profile" found on the right-hand side of the screen.

What Should You Do If You Want to Keep Using the Account but Simply Forgot Your Password?
Forgotten passwords are actually one of the most common reasons why accounts become active. Rather than going through the process of resetting their password, account-holders instead opt to create a new account, leaving the old one -- and all the data connected with it -- dormant. If you wish to make the account active again, either go through the password reset process on the UPS site, or take a look at DoNotPay's product.
