Looks like your account is permanently restricted (if you do not give them your ID).

So it is not possible to delete my account without giving them my ID?

Yep, my acct has been held hostage with this bs for months now. You won't get anywhere with their support, because they will not treat you as it's owner

I was able to log in with my password and didn't need any ID, but I deleted the account so I will not end up in your situation. I have deleted several old accounts during the summer, so this was just one more account that is now deleted.
