Domain Registration Refund Issues

    Hello,
    I mistakenly purchased my domain through WordPress.com. I meant to go through BlueHost. I immediately requested a refund, and (maybe mistakenly), purchased the domain and hosting through Bluehost. WordPress refunded me, and when going to re-register the domain on BlueHost, since I had just attempted to register it through WordPress (Automattic Inc.), I have to wait the 60 days. I wasn’t sure if the domain was in the process of currently being deleted, or if I am out of luck and have to wait the 60 days.
    Thanks!

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Unknown

    Canceling a domain does not make it immediately available to repurchase elsewhere. If the domain in question is pro32network.com, here are the available options for you:

    Wait: You can wait about five days from cancellation for the domain to be released. So long as no one else buys it before you do, you can purchase it again with another provider.

    Repurchase the Domain: We can send an invoice and restore the domain. You’ll be able to point it to a new host as soon as it’s restored, then transfer the registration after 60 days.

    Repurchase a Plan: To host your site here, buy an annual plan, skip the domain option, and update us here.

    Let us know which way you’d like to proceed. Thanks.

    Thanks for the response.

    That is the correct domain. The best move for us is to just wait it out. I appreciate your help!
