Delete my domain please
-
Hi there,
Can you please delete this domain: http://conjurerband.com ?
I’ve cancelled it and attempted to delete the site but I don’t seem to be able to do either.
Cheers.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.
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.
Clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibilityProvided you are logged in under the same username account that purchased the upgrade, and you are within the allowed time frame for refunds, you can cancel and request a refund from your dashboard > Store > My Upgrades. If the timeframe for refunds has passed you can cancel the upgrade and also disable auto-renew there. http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-upgrades/#canceling-upgrades

Yep. Disabled auto-renew and cancelled the domain, as I explained.
But the site is still live and the domain name still taken. Need those deleted.
I’ve seen other threads on this in the forum and it seems the only way to get this done is to ask WordPress staff to handle it via the forum.

Do you wish to use the URL on another site? That’s what the hold up is. Staff need to know that answer to that question.

Okay then that’s the answer to the key question. Please be patient while waiting for Staff to work their way forward to this thread.

If you want to use the domain on a different site, then cancelling is not the way to go. If you cancel a domain, you give up ownership of it, and we cannot guarantee if or when it will be available to register again. You could end up losing the domain entirely.
If you want to use the domain with a different WordPress.com site, please give me that site’s WordPress.com address, and I can help you transfer the domain.
If you want to use the domain with a site not hosted here, you can either change the name servers to point the domain to your current host, or you can transfer the domain away from WordPress.com entirely. You can find instructions to do that here:

My new host doesn’t accept domain transfers at this time.
I doubt someone will take this domain in the brief interim, and if they do, we’ll just go with a new one.
I’d prefer if you just deleted it please.
Thanks.
-
Thank you for confirming. I have cancelled the domain as requested, so you should now be able to completely delete the site if you want.
Let me know if I can help with anything else.

Hi,
Sorry to reopen this conversation. Just wondering when you think the domain will be available to retake? I understand it can take a little while.
Thanks.

Typically the registrar won’t release the domain until the time it was originally supposed to expire (in this case, your domain was supposed to expire in June), but really that’s completely up to them. If they wanted to, for whatever reason, they might never release the domain again, or sell it privately without it ever becoming available privately again.
That’s why I had to confirm that you really want to cancel it, as we have no control over the process once the domain has been cancelled.
