  You need to install the Jetpack plugin and get it connected to the WordPress.com account you are going to transfer. Then staff can transfer your followers/subscribers over for you.

  I’ll tag this for staff attention and hopefully they will be around soon to take care of that for you.

  Thank you!! I already have the jetpack plugin installed. Just couldn’t figure out how to get in contact with a support rep.

  Hello kardotim, I have also recently moved from wordpress.com to wordpress.org (teacalls.wordpress.com -> teacalls.com) I have installed and activated jetpack.

  Can you kindly move my blog followers there as well?

  Cheers,
  T
