  I cancelled my domain name when I cancelled my premium account. Is there anything I can do to get my domain name back without subscribing to a premium account?

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

  It is important to know that cancelled domains are not released by the registrar immediately. Also note that here’s no guarantee you’ll be able to use a domain again as it may be sold to someone else. Therefore you should cancel a domain, if and only if, you are sure you do not wish to use it again.

  You cannot use any custom domain on a WordPress.COM hosted site unless you do purchase an upgrade.
