The last thing i have under general permissions of a group is "Delete own account".
Hope that helps.

Ah sorry, I meant "Delete own account", not post
There is a group permission which you probably didn't set for the user group.
I keep getting complaints from users that cannot self-delete their account. Permission analysis shows they have permission to self delete. I don't see anything in the criteria to block it. One member mentioned they got a message about their account age blocking deletion.
I found the phrase:
Is this addon compatible with @Xon 's User Essentials and its self disable account feature?
I found the phrase:
Is there a setting somewhere related to account age? The user deletion log shows no self deletions.

At some point this addon stopped actually deleting. The process kicks off and I even get a thread auto created but on the date there's no deletion of the accounts. This is on 2.3.9. No idea when it stopped working but I suspect prior to 2.3.9. @Painbaker you still helping with this one?
I had it setup to disable rather than delete and it did work for a while.

I truly believe it’s time this functionality becomes part of the XenForo core.
@Chris D:
Considering GDPR (Article 17) requirements, users should have a native, streamlined way to manage their right to erasure. The Grace Period logic from Liam’s add-on is particularly brilliant - it ensures compliance while preventing "rage-quits" and reducing manual admin workload.
Native user self-deletion with a configurable cooling-off period would be a massive win for privacy and community management alike. Any chance we'll see something like this in a future XF update?

Still working fine on 2.3.9 and now 2.3.10. Users requesting account removal are deleted correctly after the time period.
Do you use the "delete" or just the "disable" option in the backend of the add on for the users? The complaint by @ichpen refers to the "delete" option.
