Domain name in redemption period
-
Hi,
Unfortunately I’ve let my domain name “virginiamacgregor.com” expire and I’m trying to get some help to get it back from the registrar whilst it’s under the redemption period.
The domain was registered through WordPress.com but isn’t listed under my purchases.
Thanks!

Hi virginiamacgregorwrites,
virginiamacgregor.com expired on 2017-05-28 which is why you are no longer able to renew it from your account. The domain is currently in the redemption period:
We can still try to recover it but you will need to pay an $80 redemption fee in addition to the $26 domain costs. If you agree, I can generate a payment request and contact our domain registrar once it has been paid.
If you don’t want to pay the fee you can wait until the domain is released, although this can take 80 days or more. There is also no guarantee you will be the first to register it again.
Please let me know what you would like to do and we’ll go from there.
Thanks!

The charge is fine if you could generate the payment request.
Thanks for your help Gemma!

We’ve received your payment and I’ve contacted our domain registrar. I’ll let you know when I have an update — we usually hear back in 1-2 business days.
Speak soon.
