Deleted my domain name by mistake
-
Hello, i was trying to build a new website and wanted to switch my subscription but i also cancelled my website i bought (keephorsingaround.com) by mistake.
I really hope this can be fixed, feel so stupid for pressing the delete site button.
Is there any way i can un-delete my site?
I now only have the keephorsingaround.wordpress.com
Thanks for the help! :)The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi There,
There is a chance you may be able to get it back. There is a warning on the support page regarding the cancellation of your domain:
“Warning: after cancellation, there is no guarantee the domain will become available to register somewhere else, and you may not be able to get it back. Keep in mind that you do have the option to keep the domain at WordPress.com, and use it elsewhere, see our alternatives in the below sections.”And as it notes if you do get it back you can still use it elsewhere but keep it at WordPress.com.
I have tagged this thread so staff can take a look for you and hopefully get it back!
Thanks -
Thank you for the good information!
I really hope they can get it back, its only happend yesterday so i hope im quick enough. -
Hi there,
I was still able to restore your domain so it’s back in your account and active again. As your original payment was not refunded, you don’t need to pay for it again so you can now just keep on using it.
If you want to use that domain with a different site on WordPress.com, first create a new site at a free address, then let me know and I can move the domain over for you.
If you want to use the domain with a site not on WordPress.com, you can see the different options here:

Thank you so much!
Im don’t want to move it so thats not the issue.
Next month im going for an upgrade, really happy with wordpress! :) -

Can you help me with the same thing? I accidentally registered the .com as part of my domain name (at least, I think I did…) so I canceled the subscription and deleted the domain, and tried again. Now it tells me the (corrected) domain name is already registered. I’m afraid I messed something up.
The site I need help with is maria4farmington.wordpress.com. I now have only that one. I want to upgrade it so it’s maria4farmington.com.

I might have actually done it right–purchased the actual domain name (I checked, and it’s not available any more)–and then deleted it. Whatever happened, I’d love to get it back!

I’ve reverted the cancellation of your custom domain and connected it to the site maria4farmington.wordpress.com in your account. All should be working again now.
Please let me know if you need any more help with this.

The domain portion of your Premium Plan was not refunded, so the domain is paid up until January 2018.

Can you help me too? I accidentally removed the domainename: everttesink.wordpress.com yesterday and I woud like tot get it back.

Yours is a free WordPress.com address, not a custom domain. Free addresses cannot be restored once deleted, as was stated in the warnings on the delete site page.
