Hi there,
See this on how to delete your account
Sign in with your Apple ID atprivacy.apple.comon a Mac, PC, iPhone, or iPad, and select “Request to delete your account”.
Please keep in mind that deletion of your Apple ID is permanent, and your account could not be restored once deleted.

For information about how to delete an Apple ID account, read this support article —> How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support
Carefully and thoroughly read that article for information about what happens when you delete your Apple ID account. For example:
"Make sure that you sign out of all your devices to avoid issues with apps that use your Apple ID account or iCloud. After your account is deleted, you can't sign out of iCloud or turn off Find My iPhone Activation Lock on your devices. If you forget to sign out, you might not be able to use your device when your account is deleted."

Make sure you log out of your Apple ID on your devices before deleting your Apple ID, otherwise it will be stuck on your device with no way to remove it, since the password to remove it will no longer work.

I don’t have the password or the mobile phone number originally used so I cannot login. I just want to cancel the AppleID because my laptop keeps asking for the details. Can Apple cancel the account if I provide the email address?
First you will need to gain access to your account to prove it is your. You have 3 options to reset your password.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Once you get that done, then follow these instructions and read them carefully to delete your Apple ID. Pay particular attention to the part where you will need to sign out of your device first, otherwise it will be locked to your device without a way to sign out since the password for it will no longer work.
How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support
Think about it. If Apple would delete an Apple ID account just by some person providing an email address, then anyones account could be deleted. People forget their passwords all the time, so it is not a big deal to reset your password and gain access to your account again. After that your are free to delete it and all the data associated with it.

Delete account
Here you go. It is rather easy to do, just make sure you read the ramifications first. For example, if you do not log out of the Apple ID on your device first, you will no longer be able to access it as your Apple ID has now been deleted.
How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support
If you simply want to change it to a different email address, you do not want to delete the account, you would want to change it instead.

This is getting off topic for this thread...
You're better off resetting the password. This Apple article has instructions for what to do if you have forgotten your Apple account password —> If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
or go directly to this link —> http://iforgot.apple.com/
If you don't receive your verification or reset email, read this Apple Support article: If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
"When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account."
If you find you can’t sign in, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery (read this support article: How to use account recovery when you can’t reset your Apple ID password - Apple Support ) to regain access to your account. Account recovery might take a few days or longer, depending on the specific account information you can provide to verify your identity. More detail in —> Activation Lockout Issues - Apple Community
