  Hello,
  My domain has recently expired – however I don’t think anyone else has purchased it yet. I think it is in the holding period. I don’t see an option to re-purchase the domain in the wordpress admin. How can I re-purchase the domain? I have always had it registered with wordpress.

  Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Worked it out. Here’s what I did.
  Purchased an upgrade so I could contact support.
  Then paid a $80 fee to get them to restore the domain. Should be fixed in 24-48 hours.
