  My domain has exxpired and now i cant not see it online. I want to cancel with WordPress and repurchase my domain elsewhere. How do I cancel with WordPress so that my domain name is available elsewhere?

  Expired domains become the property of our registrar partner and are only returned to the public market at their discretion, even if we cancel it.

  We have no control over this process, and I have seen it take anywhere from 5 to 90 days.

  If you’d like, you can renew it from Store -> Domains in your blog’s Dashboard within the week, then direct or transfer it elsewhere: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/

  Otherwise, you’ll need to wait for the registrar to release the domain.
