Gmail - Batch delete contacts?

    Is it possible to batch delete contacts? I can do it one by one alright but not seeing any options when I have multiples selected. Doing a bit of a clearout and seems every email address I sent to was saved as some form of contact, which is now turning into a pain in the ass to remove if it cant be done in batchs/ multiples select.

    Anyone out there save me from potentially 20 minutes of utter nonsense :p

    Are you using chrome? You should see check boxes beside each contact that you can 'tick' to select multiple.

    If you don't see option/check boxes in chrome go down to your task bar select properties and then click ok (to close it), that actually works! It's a known issue in chrome.

    EDIT:

    Scrath all that, it seems when you check all the boxes in chrome the button that says 'MORE' doesnt work in Chrome

    Opened in IE and when I click more I have the option to delete multiple checked contatcs.

    Thanks for suggesting chrome could be at fault :)

    Just tried on mine and under 'more' I can select Delete. Is that greyed out for you?

    Its not greyed out. I can tick the multiple check boxes but when I click on MORE nothing happens.

    When I click on MORE in IE I get the various options including delete contacts
