Domain expired

Hi there,
What is the domain, please? The account you’re using to post here has never owned any sites or domains on WordPress.com.

Last year my email was hacked so I changed emails but I forgot about my WordPress account whom I purchase my domain thru witch is http://www.PadStyleHomeInteriors.com
Anyway, it was time to pay for the year as I missed the notice so all I’m trying to do is get my website back up. The domain was purchase from Wild West via WordPress. I tried to contact Wild West directly and they say they can’t help me because it was sold via WordPress so you all will have to handle it. I just need to be redirected to the right place so I can get my website back up. Please. -
That domain was bought by the username, padstylehomeinteriors. Can you please log into that account and reply here to confirm that you want to recover the domain? We can only start this process if requested by the verified owner of the domain.
I also see your domain is already in redemption with our registrar. They charge a $80 fee to restore a domain at this point – that fee is paid to the registry that controls all .com domains and has to be paid to get the domain back. When you reply here as the correct username, also please confirm if you agree to that fee and I can get the recovery process started.
If you haven’t yet, please also update the email address for the padstylehomeinteriors account, as we can only send the payment link for the redemption payment to that email address.
If you don’t have access to that account any more, please fill out our account recovery form and let me know here once you’ve done that. Then I can first help you regain access to the correct account:

Why $80.00? It was only $18.00 for the year. This is robbery.it was an error in the email address. I can still access that email but it was hacked so I discontinued use of it.
I’m not understanding what you mean when you say log into that account. Are you referring to WordPress?
I’ll pay the $80 because I need my website back up but I need to separate from WordPress and deal with this company on my own because this is ridiculous!!! I am a business owner and this is my livelihood. Please explain what account you need me to log into so I can get this settled.

It is $80 because the domain expired more than 40 days ago, and is now in redemption at our domain provider. $80 is what we have to pay to get the domain back at this point. That payment applies to any domain, at any domain provider, once it’s this far expired.
I’m not understanding what you mean when you say log into that account. Are you referring to WordPress?
I am speaking of the WordPress.com username account, padstylehomeinteriors. That is the account that owns the domain. The account you’re using to post here, username padstyle360, does not own the domain.
I have no proof that you are the same person who owns the account, padstylehomeinteriors, and thus I have no proof that you are the owner of the domain. I can only attempt recovery of the domain if it’s the verified owner requesting it.
Log out of the padstyle360 username account, and log into the padstylehomeinteriors username account, and then comment here. Then I can get the recovery process started.
If you don’t remember the password for the padstylehomeinteriors account, please follow our account recovery process as outlined in the link above.
