    Hi I made a hasty decision today and have recently deleted my domain name holycappuccino.com I wanted to know if this can be reversed

    The site I need help with is jeromeworblog.wordpress.com.

    Can someone please restore the domain?

  • Hi there,

    I see when you cancelled your domain, you also cancelled the plan that paid for it and received a full refund.

    Do you want to use the domain here or somewhere else?

    If you want to use it on a WordPress.com site, a paid plan is required. So in that case, please buy a new paid plan at Upgrades ->Plans and let us know here once you’ve done that, and we can restore the domain.

    If you want to use it somewhere else, the simplest option is just to wait. In a few more days the registry will release the domain again, and you should be able to register it as a new domain, directly with the provider where you want to use it by the end of the week.

    We can also still restore it for you, but you won’t be able to transfer it away from us until you’ve owned it for at least 60 days. If you prefer this option, we can send you a link to pay for the domain again.

    That said, we only have about 24 hours left during which the domain can be restored, so waiting might be the simplest option regardless :)

    Let us know which option you prefer.

    Hi thank you for the reply I would like to use the domain on another provider, but I thought that it would take a lot of time until the registry releases it, since you said that it should only take few days then Im happy to wait and register it as a new domain, directly with the provider I want, thank you so much for the clarification.

  • Depending on when you cancel it, it can take a while. But in this case you cancelled it within the refund period – the first 96 hours – so it should be completely deleted and released by the registry within another two or three days.

    I suggest checking if the domain is available a couple times a day, so you can register it again as soon as it drops :)

    Why does the domain say that its parked?

    Because it’s still in that time period where the domain was cancelled, but not released yet. Again, just keep checking and it should be available for purchase within another two or three days.
