  Hi! I bought a yearly subscription while not realizing that I need to use WordPress.org. Can I buy the domain from you folks so it’s not tied up for 90 days?

  Thanks,

  I did not want this to post to the forums but there was no other option. If anyone has an advice how to contact WP directly, I’d appreciate hearing about it.

  All support docs are at https://support.wordpress.com/

  There is no phone support. See here for all the support options when you have wordpress.COM technical support issues see https://en.support.wordpress.com/help-support-options/

  Those who have a paid upgrade for a wordpress.COM site can use the “Contact Support” form, http://support.wordpress.com/contact/ where they will receive a choice of having staff answer your question publicly or privately.

  The best WordPress.COM contact form to use now for Staff assistance is:
  http://wordpress.com/help/contact
  Live chat will be available there if we have Happiness Engineers available to chat. When they are not available using that link results in posting to this peer support forum. https://en.support.wordpress.com/live-chat/

  re: direct email support
  Also, note that you can email WordPress.COM Staff at:
  help@wordpress.com
