  Hi.

  How do I cancel my Premium subscription and still keep my domain name? I don’t have a website yet, but I don’t want to lose my domain name since I want to transfer it to Bluehost.

  And how do I transfer my domain name to Bluehost?

  Best, Thomas.

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

  Hi there, If you have just registered this as a new domain name, you will only be able to transfer it to BlueHost after 60 days. This is an ICANN regulation that cannot be bypassed. In the meantime, you can point the domain you registered here to your new BlueHost site by following this guide https://en.support.wordpress.com/move-domain/change-name-servers/

  Also, with your current upgrade plan you can get direct assistance from Support when you post to https://wordpress.com/help/contact

  Otherwise, please add the MODLOOK tag to the Tags section in this forum post’s sidebar to receive forum Staff assistance.

  Thanks.

  You didn’t answer this question: If I cancel my Premium subscription, do I still get to keep my domain name?

  Hi there,

  I see that my colleague already helped you with that via live chat, therefore I’m closing this thread.
