  Hi there,

  I do not see any sites under your @peacewithhealthf3dd4b64bf WordPress.com account when I check on our end. You can confirm by visiting this page: https://wordpress.com/sites.

  Is it possible you created your site under a different login?  Is it the case that you are using another provider like GoDaddy, Bluehost, Hostgator, etc. instead? What is the URL of the site you are needing to take offline?

  Happy to check in our system so we can take a closer look.

  Thanks for your reply, it was a friend who set it up originally, I don’t know his login.

  I have been paying Godaddy, but I have stopped paying for this and requested to take down/ cancelled hosting but 24hrs later it is still there so I am trying other options!
  thanks a mil

  Hi there,

  That site is not hosted by GoDaddy. It’s hosted by us (WordPress.com). To be able to take it down you’ll need to recover access to the account that owns it.

  We have put together a guide that’ll help you recover access:
