For anyone thinking about doing this, I found it FAR easier to start by turning off all notifications on the meta apps, banners, emails, everything. Move the apps to the last icon position or remove the icons entirely. In no time you'll stop checking it randomly and you'll just hear "I sent you something, have you seen it" and you find yourself saying "I don't really use that app" back to them, and that's when it'll be easy peasy to delete your account.
