Have you tried without any plugins or config, with "vim -N -u NONE -i NONE"?

I assume you know about backspace not being able to delete stuff you didn't just insert, unless you set the 'backspace' option to sane values. But you also mentioned the 'd' command which should always work.

Is 'modifiable' set to on? Does Vim give any sort of error message? What specific full command did you use for delete? E.g. dw, dap, dd, etc.
