Change URL name
-
I am trying to get rid of wordpress from my URL and create my own website name. I have already paid wordpress and have a different website using wordpress. Is there a way I can do it with my other website preferably using cpanel?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no Cpanel on wordpress.com hosted sites.
WordPress.com does not accept incoming domain transfers. You can, however, map an existing domain.
In order to remove the .wordpress.com URL and replace that with a domain URL you have to purchase an upgrade. See https://wordpress.com/pricing/
See: Map an existing domain (one you already own) to your WordPress.com blog – if you already have a domain that you registered and purchased elsewhere. http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/
What domain mapping does is providing a seamless redirect to the very same content under the new domain URL when a person clicks the old URL to the original content.
Note that each upgrade bundle applies to a single blog only and is for a single year only when it is due to be renewed.
We all pay in full for every upgrade at the time of purchase. Make sure you read the comparison very closely do you know exactly what the restrictions and limitations on WordPress.COM blogging are: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and purchase upgrades at > Dashboard> Store > My Upgrades

https://en.support.wordpress.com/billing-history/Your only options for payment are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/
WordPress.com provides a 30-day refund on all upgrades except Domain Registrations, Domain Renewals, and Guided Transfers. The refund period for Domain Registrations and Renewals is 48 hours.
Note: It takes from 1 – 2 weeks for the refund to be received.
You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard, cancel any upgrades, claim a refund for any qualified upgrades, and disable auto-renew.

If that’s true then she did not pay us. That sounds like a hosting plan for a self-hosted WordPress installation at someone like Pressable. Self-hosted WordPress sites are not connected to WordPress.com in any way. We just use the same software. But you have paid another company for those sites, and will need to log into their interface to create your sites and connect domains to them.
