  Hi there!

  Are you talking about the domain markrvickers.com? I can see it’s still in redemption, which means we can get it back for you. However, an additional fee of $80 would be needed. Here you can read more information about that:

  https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/.

  I will email you a link where you can pay the registration and redemption fee. If you decide to do that, reply here afterward so we can start the recovery process.

  Hi Mark!

  Just letting you know your domain is back active on your account now. You may wish to update your payment details so you don’t have to manually renew next year. You can do this by following these steps:
