    Hi there!

    You should be able to log into your site without any trouble, regardless of your domain status.

    Click below to log in:

    Remember, that when you log into your WordPress.com site, you must use the WordPress.com site name, rather than your custom domain name.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much!

    Hi again.

    I see the issue. You’ve added a domain mapping upgrade. However, your domain name expired on October 10, 2014. Before it expired, we sent email warnings and displayed notifications on your dashboard. If you don’t not maintain ownership of the domain name, it cannot be mapped to your account.

    I’ve refunded your $13 and cancelled your domain mapping, as it won’t do any good without your ownership of itsbrodee.com.

    Now, you can visit your site here: http://itsbrodee.wordpress.com/

    Domain expiration is a lengthy and complicated process that takes about 80 days. During this time, your domain may be put up for auction or sold on back-order. You can learn more about expired domains here:

    Recover an Expired or Cancelled Domain

    The good news is that we may still be able to recover your domain if it has not yet been deleted or purchased by someone else. A late renewal fee of $80 will be added to the regular price of renewal. This fee is charged by the domain registry and is not one which we can waive.

    The total price will be $98, which is $18 for the regular renewal plus the $80 late renewal fee.

    Please reply back if you have submitted the payment so we can begin the recovery process. If we are unable to recover your domain your payment will be refunded.

    If you do not wish to pay the $80 fee you may let the domain expiration process continue and attempt to register the domain again at the regular price once it has expired completely.

    Please note that someone else may purchase the domain first, in which case you will be unable to register it again, but if you prefer this option just let us know and we’ll be happy to provide you further instructions.

    Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.
