Deleted domain

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi, I wanna know how long will the process take for deleted domain to be available to buy again?

    That depends on how long after creating it you deleted it. If it was deleted shortly after creation I understand domains are usually released after a few days. If it was deleted after the refund window had passed then it might not be released for a year if at all.

    I deleted it after 2-3 weeks I have registered. I was a Wix user and switched to WordPress. But after trying couple of weeks, Wix is better user friendly. Therefore, I decided to go back and do not bother to wait 60 days regulation to transfer the domain name. Hence, I was thinking to delete on WordPress and get a same name from Wix.

    Perhaps you’d better share the domain address. Where was the domain purchased? If you purchased it here and cancelled it after 3 weeks then WordPress.com will own it, not you and it won’t be available for you to use elsewhere.
    PS: Although you can’t transfer a domain until you have owned it 60 days you could have mapped it to Wix immediately.

  • Please let us know which domain you’re inquiring about, heinaungko07. I reviewed the account that you’re writing to us from and there hasn’t been any domain registered to it previously.

    Hi all,
    actually I have purchased with my “(email visible only to moderators and staff)” account and it cannot login to WordPress now and so that I posted via this account.
    Domain name was “www.burmaflyingelephant.com”
    May I know how can I try to get it back please?

  • You can no longer log in to that account because you have deleted it. It is still possible to restore your account and for that I want you to reply back to the Account Closure email we have sent you.

    Once your account is restored we’ll be able to help you recover the domain.
