    I deleted my domain name gemmalouisesmith.com by mistake, can you help me get it back?

    Hey there,

    You canceled the domain within 5 days of registering it, so it should be available again soon. Once a domain name is deleted by the registry at this stage, it is immediately available for registration by any registrant through any Registrar, and that happens shortly after the 5 day grace period.

    We can immediately restore the domain for you within that 5 day period, but after that, we no longer have control over it. So, depending on where you want to register the domain (with us or elsewhere), you should decide ASAP on how you want it re-registered. You can always point the domain over to your host from WordPress.com until 60 days of registration hits (where you can transfer the domain anywhere you please). That will at least guarantee you will get it back without any potential complications. Let me know.

    Thanks,

    That’s great. Can I reinstate my domain please.

    Kind Regards,

    Ok, since the domain was refunded, you’ll need to pay the $18 registration fee for it first.

    I have sent a payment request for the total of $18 to the email address on your account. Once the payment is sent, please reply here to let us know, and we will begin the process of recovering the domain.

    Please hurry though, as we can only guarantee recovery within the next 2 days.
