Domain was removed by Godaddy
-
How can I remove the domain “www.oliviadelrosario.com” I have on my “postcardsofheaven.wordpress.com”?
This domain was purchased through Godaddy but something happened and they removed the domain from my Godaddy account.
Can I buy the same domain but this time through WordPress? Since it looks like Godaddy already made it available for selling.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there! If you would like to cancel your domain mapping of oliviadelrosario.com/, you can do so by clicking on Store → My Upgrades in your site’s Dashboard. Simply click the red cancel link.
If GoDaddy has freed up the domain for repurchase, you can purchase it here by click on Store. Where it says “Add a Domain” you can Buy Now.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. Thanks much!

Hi,
– Thank You. I successfully cancelled my domain mapping. However, I checked again with Godaddy, I do not know why but they suddenly made the oliviadelrosario.com domain not available for registration again. I am now planning to just create a new domain and just purchase it directly from WordPress.
– I bought last year the Premium bundle which includes the domain mapping of the old domain. May I confirm that my recent cancellation means the portion of the bundle amount will be refunded to me? I think it is $13?
– Also, the Premium bundle will be renewed this coming July. If the $13 will be refunded to me now, does it mean that by July I will again have a new domain for registration and domain mapping since both are included in Premium bundle?
– Is it advisable for me to just register a new domain and map it now or should I wait the renewal?

Hello again,
Oh, that’s a shame about your preferred domain name. I am glad you can create a new one here that suits your needs.May I confirm that my recent cancellation means the portion of the bundle amount will be refunded to me? I think it is $13?
As mapping was part of a greater upgrade (the Premium upgrade) purchased on August 20, 2013, I’m afraid it isn’t eligible for discount. We have an open refund policy for 30-days after the purchase of an item, but unfortunately, you’ve exceeded that.
However, as you never registered a domain as part of your Premium upgrade, if you are able to register your domain now, you can do so without extra cost.
– Is it advisable for me to just register a new domain and map it now or should I wait the renewal?
I suggest registering a new domain now. The reason is that there is no way of knowing when GoDaddy will release that domain name for resale.
Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks.

Hi. Thank you!
Right now, I have already registered postcardsofheaven.com domain via WordPress. Just in case I don’t renew my Premium Bundle on its scheduled renewal date, should I buy the separate “Registration and Mapping” and can still use the newly registered domain?

Hi there,
Since you just registered postcardsofheaven.com, that domain will be valid through June 28, 2015 even if you decide not to renew WordPress.com Premium. In that case, you’ll just need to renew the domain itself separately next June.
If you keep WordPress.com Premium, renewing the Premium upgrade will automatically renew your domain for another year.
Please let me know if you have any other questions about that. :)
