  Hey, on 23th I registered a domain and yesterday I decided to cancel it, because I’ll use in another host with wordpress.org. How long does it take before my domain be canceled? I’ll receive an email or something telling me that my domain is canceled?

  Thanks for your help.

  Hi there, if we cancel the domain, it can take up to several weeks, and we can’t guarantee that your domain will be available to you again once canceled.

  If you want to keep using your domain but you don’t want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don’t have to cancel it.

  Instead, you can move the domain to another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > Domains, at the bottom of the page.

  This support article explains how to change the name servers to point your domain name to a new hosting provider: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/change-name-servers/#changing-domain-name-servers

  If you wish to cancel nonetheless, please let me know.
