  Hello,

  is it possible to get back a cancelled domain or at least to get an information when the adress of domain which was cancelled will be again available? Before cancelation it was empty. Is it any chance to get it back?

  To be understandable: what I want get back is the adress of domain (that one which was removed), not the content (there where nothing there).

  Hi there,

  Is this for a custom domain or a free WordPress.com domain? With custom domains it varies depending on the type of domain and the registrar, and you really shouldn’t cancel a custom domain if you still want to use it.

  If it’s a free WordPress.com account, deleting those are permanent. Under some cases we recycle them after a few years, but many never get recycled.

  Thank you for your help!

  Unfortunatelly, the problem concern a free WordPress.com account. Is there any posibility to ask for “recycling” of this adress sooner than in “few years”?

  I’m afraid not. The process is completely automated, and we can’t otherwise restore a deleted address.
