Facebook has made it impossible to delete Pages – dark patterns everywhere
ramharts Tuesday, November 18, 2025I'm honestly shocked at how bad the current Facebook interface has become. I’m trying to delete a Page I own, and the platform basically makes it impossible. The options have moved or disappeared, the Page Settings menu leads to the wrong profile, Business Suite doesn’t show the Page, and the “Access and Control” section doesn’t list it at all.
Facebook keeps bouncing me between: – personal profile settings – business portfolio settings – Meta Business Suite – classic Page UI
None of them give the actual option to delete the Page. It’s like the platform actively hides the feature.
And here’s the worst part: I AM the admin. I can publish on the Page. I can edit it. I can manage everything… except delete it.
I get that Meta wants to keep pages alive for engagement and ad data, but blocking users from removing something they own is straight-up abusive UX. No user should have to waste hours navigating four different interfaces to do something basic like “delete a page.”
If anyone has figured out the REAL way to delete a Page in 2025 with the new Facebook UI (which keeps changing), please share. Meta’s documentation is outdated, and their support is nonexistent.
This shouldn’t be this hard.
