  Hi there!

  Since you cancelled and received a refund for the domain, you no longer own it. Also, canceling a domain does not make it immediately available to repurchase elsewhere. Here are the available options for you to recover the domain:

  Wait: You can wait about five days from cancellation for the domain to be released. So long as no one else buys it before you do, you can purchase it again with another provider.

  Repurchase the Domain: We can send an invoice and restore the domain. You’ll be able to point it to a new host as soon as it’s restored, then transfer the registration after 60 days.

  Repurchase a Plan: To host your site here, buy an annual plan, skip the domain option, and update us here.

  Let us know which way you’d like to proceed. Thanks.
