Granted, I haven't used it in a while because they put me in a position where recovering my account is impossible.
I ended up doing this anyway in the end, after deleting everything I could before I stopped using it.
They do make you wait seven days before you can do it after you make the request.
I still have the account because I don't want to lose access to my username (didn't delete it), but it's otherwise empty and unused with fresh keys that have no history with anything.
If by 'recovering' you mean recover after a lost key, then I'd regard that as a feature not a bug!
Am looking for a keybase alternative now.
