Exactly. I went through their process to delete my account on Saturday or Sunday, and still received their apology letter. This suggests my account was not deleted?

They could delete almost all the data in your account, but still hold onto your email address?

Why would they need to keep your email if you have deleted your account? To spam you? To sell your email to spammers?
