  Expired domain – has it been too long? I have two domains I registered with WordPress:

  mirellacrespi.com and person-auto.com and both have expired for more than 2 weeks and I would like to know if it’s still possible to get them back. I understand it’s a complicated process and I’m willing to go through it I’d just like to know where to start.

  Any help is much appreciated! Thanks.

  mirellacrespi.com is available for registration again. You can go to Store -> My Domains on your blog’s dashboard and follow the steps there.

  Our records show that person-auto.com expired 50 days ago.

  Domain expiration is a lengthy and complicated process that takes about 80 days. During this time, your domain may be put up for auction or sold on back-order. You can learn more about domain expiration here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-expiration/

  The good news is that we may still be able to recover your domain if it has not yet been deleted or purchased by someone else. A late renewal fee of $80 will be added to the regular price of renewal. This fee is charged by the domain registry and is not one which we can waive.

  Please click the following link to pay for the renewal:

  https://manualpayments.wordpress.com/?u=2dc5018e2d

  The total price will be $98, which is $18 for the regular renewal plus the $80 late renewal fee.

  Please reply back if you have submitted the payment so we can begin the recovery process. If we are unable to recover your domain your payment will be refunded.

  If you do not wish to pay the $80 fee you may let the domain expiration process continue and attempt to register the domain again at the regular price once it has expired completely.

  Please note that someone else may purchase the domain first, in which case you will be unable to register it again, but if you prefer this option just let us know and we’ll be happy to provide you further instructions.
