Can I Delete iCloud Account Without A Password?

Yes. It is possible. There was a bug in iOS 7.1 update. You need to follow the steps. First, open the iCloud in the settings app and select the account. The details of your account will be displayed including your password.

Delete your password and type some random number and tap on “Done”.

Tap on “OK” if you get any message and again tap on “Done”. You may have to do this twice.

Tap on “Cancel” located on the top left the corner.

Now go to account and type “iCloud” in the description. And tap “Done”

Now you can scroll down and tap on the delete account. It won't ask you for a password.
