  The domain name I recieved was not what I typed in. I do not want to Add a Domain, I want to change it to what I requested and delete the DOTCOM. When I was signing up, I chose a .com for $18 a year. Instead I was given an address with “DOTCOM” in the name. What I said I wanted was onefabulousday.com and what I recieved was onefabulousdaydotcom.wordpress.com.

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

  I will flag this for the staff to review your account

  The domain registration seems to have failed for onefabulousday.com – were you charged for it?

  Dashboard >> Store >> My Upgrades >> Should be all the active upgrades

  Dashboard >> Store >> Billing History >> What you have paid for

  http://onefabulousday.wordpress.com/ has been around for a while so you can’t get it – but with Domain Mapping it does not matter what the base blog is –

  The domain purchase fails from time to time but the staff has a good record of sorting things out

  @shannonduckworth – the domain “onefabulousday.com” is still available for purchase. I don’t show any transactions on your account that failed or were successful.

  If you still want this domain, you can follow the instructions to purchase this domain name here:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/register-domain/

  If you were trying to create “onefabulousday.wordpress.com” – that site name is already being used by someone else.

  I hope that clarifies things! Let us know if you have any other questions.
