  Hello,

  I recently completed a request to delete my domain name. What I did not know is that domain name would not be accessible to own for two days, but I don’t think that is true. I regret my decision, how could I get that domain name back?

  Thank you for your help

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  Hey there, when cancel a domain that is more than a few days old, you have just a few days grace period to un-cancel before the redemption process begins. Unfortunately you’re already past that point.

  The Domain Redemption process can take several weeks, and it’s costly to get the domain back during that time. Registrars charge an $80 fee to restore the name.

  There’s also a risk that the domain can be purchased by someone else after the redemption period is over.

  You can read more about the entire process here:

  Domain Expiration

  Given that, would you like us to send an invoice so we can work on recovering the domain?

  Or, would you prefer to wait til the redemption process is over in hopes that you’ll get the domain when it’s released?
