  I currently have a blog and wanted to change the address of it. I had saved the name previously and instead of transferring it or copying info across I accidentally deleted the new site and now can’t retrieve it, but would like to have it back

  it was:
  eatinn.wordpress.com
  I have updated my entire site to match the new name and would appreciate getting access to this back.

  Please can you assist me?!

  Thank you.
  Blog url: http://pictorialpost.wordpress.com/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m sorry but deleted blog URLs here are not recycled and no exceptions are made. That’s why 3 warnings are given and why a verification link in an email that must be clicked is sent in order to accomplish deletion. See here for verification:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-blog/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
