Hi there,
I understand you want to use your existing site name ‘apexporterservices.wordpress.com’ with a different hosting provider. However, I should clarify that the ‘.wordpress.com’ subdomains are exclusive to WordPress.com and cannot be transferred or used elsewhere.
If you wish to maintain your site’s name while moving to another platform. You can register a custom domain, such as ‘apexporterservices.com’ which is not tied to any specific platform and can be moved between hosting providers.
WordPress.com is also an accredited domain registrar, and you can register a domain through us. Here’s how to do that: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/register-a-domain-without-creating-a-site/
Once you have your domain, you can point it to any hosting provider you choose. The specifics will depend on your new provider, but generally, you would update your domain’s DNS settings to point to your new hosting provider.
If you have any other questions or need further assistance, don’t hesitate to ask. I’m here to help.

Thanks for the reply. What sucks is that I started that domain in WordPress, they added their .Wordpress.com to it and are now holding the domain hostage. Sounds like I’m stuck with WordPress…..
