    I never heard of anyone who has done that but I don't think it's possible. Why don't you just create another account, but with a different email address from your existing one, whilst this wasn't allowed in the past, (and am not too sure whether it is even allowed now) but people do it.

    What are you trying to achieve anyway? You could do with just creating a business page that doesn't require a personal profile? If anything, I think a page would do better than a personal profile in any case.

    That is possible but I believe you still have to wait for certain hours before you can make the change. With your existing account, you can change it to the name you want. You should be careful though with changing your names because there is a limit for this to make sure that users are using their real names.

  • Help me understand what you are trying to do. Is it the name that you want transfer or the personalized url? Please clarify and I'll walk you through it.

      I am not sure you can completely delete a Facebook acc, thought you can only deactivate, would have to find out about this for my own info.

    FB friends do not transfer to Bingo Buddies, also, not able to invite ... Their name should pop up for you if they are facebook friends.

    Sounds like you don't understand the rules.

    Registration and Account Security

    Facebook users provide their real names and information, and we need your help to keep it that way. Here are some commitments you make to us relating to registering and maintaining the security of your account:
    You will not provide any false personal information on Facebook, or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission.
    You will not create more than one personal account.
    If we disable your account, you will not create another one without our permission.
    You will not use your personal timeline primarily for your own commercial gain, and will use a Facebook Page for such purposes.
    You will not use Facebook if you are under 13.
    You will not use Facebook if you are a convicted sex offender.
    You will keep your contact information accurate and up-to-date.
    You will not share your password (or in the case of developers, your secret key), let anyone else access your account, or do anything else that might jeopardize the security of your account.
    You will not transfer your account (including any Page or application you administer) to anyone without first getting our written permission.
    If you select a username or similar identifier for your account or Page, we reserve the right to remove or reclaim it if we believe it is appropriate (such as when a trademark owner complains about a username that does not closely relate to a user's actual name).
