    I for a while have been trying to get rid of this window that says

    Uh oh! Your blog’s domain blahblah.com expired 32 days ago!
    The domain blahblah.com was registered on November 6, 2013. It is configured to redirect traffic to the web address blahblah.wordpress.com.

    However, this domain name expired on Thursday, November 6, 2014. It needs to be renewed every year to stay active or otherwise it will be lost. Please renew blahblah.com below now before it’s too late — It’s quick and easy:

    Renew now
    at $26 per year + $80 late fee or cancel this domain

    Now I tried to plain cancel it because I want the blahblah.wordpress.com. to be the site I use however it wont just cancel and let me see blahblah.wordpress.com. I always have to see this stupid web window I mentioned above. Sure it lets me edit my site and add blogs but it does not let me see the site as normal it only lets me use the Dashboard part of it. How can I just get rid of this window warning. I want my blahblah.wordpress.com. PLEEASE HEEEEELP MEEEE!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Provided your are logged in as admin under the username that registered the blog and purchased the domain and mapping upgrade for it through WordPress.com note what’s at
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/#troubleshooting
    “I’m on the Delete Site page, but I see a message that the site can’t be deleted”.

    Hi there,

    Sorry for the trouble! I removed that expired domain from your site, so it will go back to using the free .wordpress.com address without that expired domain message. If you still see that message, you may need to refresh your browser or clear your browser’s cache.

    Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
