  I want to delete my blogsite, but it’s notified me that I cannot do so with the Domain Mapping upgrade…I want to know how I can go about ceasing operations on the site (as well as the $25.00/yr payment on the domain name, as it too is no longer useful).

  Canceling a domain after 2 days of purchase means you completely give up ownership of the domain. There is no guarantee the domain will become available to re-register after cancellation.

  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.

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