  Hey, I’d like to cancel my domain. auxvaincus.com and avrg.us and then delete my site auxvaincus.wordpress.com and I’m not sure what to do.

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

  Hi,

  Your domain, auxvaincus.com, is registered with WordPress.com, so we need to handle the domain before being able to delete the site.

  If we delete your domain, it can be quite some time before it is available for purchase again. If you plan on using your domain elsewhere, I strongly suggest transferring the domain to a different registrar rather than deleting it.

  If you’re absolutely sure you want to delete your domain, please let me know and I can do that, then send you a link to delete your site.

  If you have any questions or need anything else, please let me know! Thanks!

  I’ve clicked on the link. How long will it take to receive the email?

  It should be pretty instant. If you’re using Gmail, be sure to check the “Social” tab in your inbox, if you have the relatively new tabbed inbox feature, as well as your junk folder.

  Checking your account, I don’t see a response for why your site being deleted. Can you go back to https://auxvaincus.wordpress.com/wp-admin/tools.php?page=delete-blog , select the last option and be sure to put something in for a reason?

  Thanks!

  I show the e-mail went out, but since you went through those steps, I’ll finalize the process on my end. Your site is now deleted.

  If you have any questions or need anything else, please let me know. Thanks!

  I’ve removed the connection to your other site (since it was hosted elsewhere, there’s only a connection to use WordPress.com services).

  Our accounts can’t be deleted, but they can remain inactive forever without an issue.

  If you have any other questions or need anything else, please let me know. Cheers!
