  Hello WordPress!

  Please can I delete my registered domain? If so, how is this done please? I know it expires in June but I would really like it gone asap, so I can delete my blog as I need it gone.

  Thank you

  Canceling a domain means you completely give up ownership of the domain and there is no guarantee the domain will become available to re-register.

  You are welcome to keep your domain with us and update the nameservers to point to another hosting provider by following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#update-nameservers

  After 60 days from the date of purchase, renewal, or nameserver change, you may also transfer your domain to another registrar: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#transfer-to-another-registrar

  If you would like to completely cancel your ownership of the domain name, please reply to confirm.
