  Hi there,

  When you cancel a domain name, it can take some time for the domain to be released by our domain registrar (and there’s no guarantee the domain will become available again so you can register it somewhere else). That’s why we recommend you only cancel a domain if you no longer want to use it at all.

  Would you like me to try to recover that domain name for you? If you renew the domain here at WordPress.com, you are welcome to Move Your Domain to Another Host if you want.

  Otherwise, you will need to wait for the domain to be fully cancelled and released by our domain registrar.

  Right!
  Thank you for your feedback !!
  I do not want to buy this domain in wordpress anymore
  I will buy in another host.
  Now I hope the wordpress system soon release my domain
  it is this right attitude to take.
  I hope that the web does not have to do things like hold a domain
  to disrupt their old customers!
  I will await my free domain as soon as possible!

  Once the domain is cancelled from WordPress.com, we do not have any control over how long the domain takes to be released. This depends on the registrar. It can take anywhere from a week to a month or more. If you would like, you can check the status of your domain here:

  http://who.is/whois/marianagellman.com

  Once the status reads “Available” at the top of the page, you should be able to register it elsewhere!
