Yes, I get the ridiculous "If you are wanting to delete your cloud server, 
please call:..." message too when I try to delete the servers.

All three servers are powered off, even though rackspace has not noticed 
that yet because "The Monitoring Agent is disconnected.".

List of servers to be deleted:

david:
   id: ad0c2b09-652b-4dd2-8d4e-d6ce76920de3
   ip: 23.253.149.127
john:
   id: 43ab768e-6132-4418-b488-08ea28893555
   ip: 104.239.174.108
scott:
   id: 2a1bd23d-1068-43bf-b739-d14958e31b0b
   ip: 162.242.248.154

Fortunately, I could delete the mysql database.
