Deleting facebook account without consenting to new EU ad policy or paying the subscription - eviltoast

Hello everyone.

A while ago I got the message on both Facebook and Instagram to either consent to viewing targeted ads or paying the subscription fee. I did neither, and it soon went away. Since yesterday though, I got it again and have no access to any part of facebook, most importantly the accounts section of the settings from where I can delete my account.

How can I delete my account without consenting or paying the fee?

Thanks in advance

      I would like to but I have no idea what to write in it. Also, based on previous interaction with my DPO at the time of the reddit fiasco (and if I’m not mistaken as per the GDPR) I first have to attempt to contact the entity holding my data before filling in a complaint form. Furthermore as I have stated in another comment, I have completely lost faith in my country’s DPO after having to go through them for reddit’s non-compliance with the GDPR, and honestly believe they are just incompetent and don’t fully understand the laws their entire position was created to defend.
