  Hi there,

  I’d be happy to move your domain for you. Can you let me know what domain you’d like to move and what WordPress.com site you want it pointed to?

  Hi Gwendolyn,

  Thanks for providing that additional information. :)

  The domain rosschambers.net is currently owned by a different WordPress.com user. In order to move the domain for you, we’ll need that user to approve the domain transfer to your account and site.

  Can you please ask the WordPress.com user who owns the domain to log in and contact us to confirm the transfer? (If you also own that WordPress.com account, please just log in with that username and contact us again to confirm it.) They can include a link to this support thread so we can connect your requests:

  Once we have that confirmation, we can go ahead and move the domain to your site at http://bentnailproductions.wordpress.com/ for you. :) Please let me know if you have any questions!
