How can I delete my Facebook "linked" contacts?

You can unlink them, but you cannot delete them.

Go to contacts, find the contact that you want to modify, tap it, tap edit, then scroll to the bottom. It will show your linked contacts. Tap the red icon to the left of the linked facebook contact.

Only gives me a green + sign. When you hit the delete button says linked Facebook contact will not be deleted

In the Contacts app go to the Group section and uncheck the FB group. The FB contacts will no longer show in your Contacts.

Thank you IIIaass, they're gone!!!!!!!

Very simple solution. Thank you

Dear lllaass,

Thank you for that simple and perfect solution! I have been sitting on google and facebook and apple all morning trying to figure this out. It was so infuriating and everyone was giving me these over complicated answers! Thanks for your help, you saved me from a very annoying morning!

Sweet. Thank you so much. Solved the problem. You deserve major kudos.

Thanks! This solved my problem.

I've tried everything! And I've googled this topic many times! I'm extremely annoyed with this syncing nonsense. I've turned off contacts in my iPhone settings under the Facebook. I've restarted my phone, I've looked through my Facebook settings and nothing!

I tried going to my contacts and looking for "Facebook Group" but I can't find any groups in my contacts. On the top left corner, there's a "refresh button, and on the top right corner, there's only a "add new contact" button :( please help!

Thanks!

Go to SETTINGS>Facebook>uncheck sync contacts.

I went to my settings< Facebook<and unchecked my contacts..it didn't work. I have done this 4 times now. I even tried restarting my phone after I unchecked it and it didn't work :(
