Deleting Reddit comments happens only in the Chrome extension, on a computer where you are signed in. There is no phone option and no paid delete option for Reddit. The scan is a separate step: the preview is free, and unlocking the rest of the archive is one payment from $15, in the billing currency for this connection.
Posts are a different row from comments. Delete Reddit posts is that half of the same zip. X uses the same report if you want both archives. Delete old tweets covers that file. Scanning both is 20% off the sum of the two prices. A job-search reading of either archive is the job-interview guide.
The procedure
Step 01
Request your Reddit data
While signed in, open reddit.com/settings/data-request and request your data. Reddit emails a zip. SohamReclaim does not ask for your Reddit password.
Step 02
Upload the zip
Sign up with your email, log in with the one-time code, start a scan, and choose Reddit. Upload the zip and pick one lens. If you also want X, the upload page takes the archives one at a time, X then Reddit, and the scan waits until both files are in. The themes are built once across both.
Step 03
Read posts and comments
We read the posts and comments in the export. Private-message threads are left out. The free preview scores your 500 most recent posts on that platform. The whole file is counted, so the quote is the price of scanning all of it.
Step 04
Decide, then pay only to see the rest
Mark keep, review, or delete by theme, and open a theme to change one comment or post. Low-confidence items stay in Review and are never auto-deleted. One payment covers the rest of that archive. Reddit is priced on its own count, on the same brackets as X. Both platforms together are 20% off. There is no subscription.
Step 05

Questions worth asking
- Does this delete comments, posts, or both?
- Both, when they are in the export: comment text, and posts as title plus body. Empty rows and private messages are left out.
- Can I do this from my phone?
- No. Reddit deletion is the Chrome extension on a computer where you are signed in to Reddit. There is no phone option for Reddit.
- Will this delete someone else's comments?
- No. You upload an archive of an account you own or are allowed to act for. Uploading someone else's archive to profile them breaks the terms.
- What if the zip is rejected?
- The file has to be the export from reddit.com/settings/data-request. An X archive uploaded as if it were Reddit will not parse. If a real export fails, write to support@sohamreclaim.com and include the scan id.
