canceled /deleted the domain.

  • Unknown's avatar

    I recently received an email about renewing my domain, but instead of renewing, I mistakenly deleted it. Now, I’m unable to use my domain for email hosting and wish to recover it. It’s been three days since this happened.

    Could anyone provide guidance on how to retrieve my domain? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi there!

    It looks like the domain was canceled several days ago. There’s a short window for us to restore a canceled domain before it enters the redemption period, where a redemption fee of $80 is charged by the registry to restore the domain. Unfortunately, it appears your domain has already entered the redemption period.

    You can learn more about this here.

    Please let me know if you’d like to redeem the domain, and we’ll email you the payment link.

    Hi, thank you for responding.

    When the domain will come out redemption period?
    Can i buy the domain again when it is available?

    Hi there!

    The domain redemption ends in about a month. You may be able to get the domain back if the domain is available afterwards. In that case, no additional charges will apply, as you can just register it as a new domain. However, the important thing to note is that there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to get it back.

    Letting a domain go through the redemption period in the hopes of getting it back carries a risk of permanently losing it. Please click here and read the section about redemption period to understand what happens to a domain after it. While I understand that the redemption fee is expensive, it’s the best chance for the domain owner to get it back.

    Feel free to let us know if you have more questions.
