How do I cancel my domain name?
-
I want to move to Tumblr since I’m not getting the customization needed without paying for it here. I purchased my sichas.com domain name through you. How do I get that over to Tumblr? I’d prefer to just cancel it and repurchase through DreamHost or something like that. Unless of course, you can tell me how I would go about following these directions to get my sichas.com domain to work for my Tumblr blog: http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/custom_domains
Thanks!

If we cancel the domain, it can take up to several weeks, and we can’t guarantee that your domain will be available to you again once canceled.
If you want to keep using your domain but you don’t want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don’t have to cancel it.
Instead, you can move the domain another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > Domains, at the bottom of the page.

If you don’t want this domain at all, you can cancel it for a full refund if you purchased it within the last two days.
To cancel the domain, go to Store > Domains in your dashboard. Locate the domain you want to cancel in the list, and click on the Cancel button next to it.
This cannot be undone, so please follow the on-screen instructions carefully before you confirm the cancellation.

So, I’m trying to go ahead and do that….the transfer thing, and Tumblr wants me to change the A Record to point to 72.32.231.8
So, is that just making a DNS record that says
A tumblr 72.32.231.8
That’s really all I need…when you type in sichas.com I want it to show my Tumblr page, not my WordPress blog anymore.

Howdy,
It’s not possible to change the root level A record here, so you’ll need to transfer your domain to a different registrar:
