Help I lost my domain name!
-
Bought a domain on wordpress.com and then deleted it and now I want to take that domain name and transfer it to another host. Is it gone? :(

Hi there,
I’ll be happy to contact the registrar to see if we can restore emmakoza.com to your account, but I cannot guarantee that we will be able to get the domain back. If I am successful, I can send you a manual payment request form for you to repurchase the domain.
I will let you know once I hear back from the registrar.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!

Hi there,
I wanted to let you know that the domain emmakoza.com has been recovered and is now active.
Also, this guide explains how to transfer the domain name to another registrar, including how to access the authorization (EPP) code:

staff-totoro – Does the ICANN 60-day no-transfer rule come into play when a domain is recovered?

Hi Jen :)
According to ICANN a domain name is locked within 60 days of initial registration or previous transfer, and a few other cases.
With regard to a domain recovered from redemption, I believe it’s treated much like a transfer, in that it was not “owned” by the registrant while in redemption, but is transferred back to them upon recovery.
But then again, I have seen transfers go through too, so who knows what lies in the heart of ICANN. Their FAQ reads like stereo instructions. 0_o*
