I forgot to pay for the domain

  • Unknown's avatar

    hello,

    I forgot to pay for the renewal of my domain last month, silly me! The payment is usually automatic but I changed credit card and didn’t worry about it until I noticed today my blog wasn’t online anymore and that it was too late to pay.

    How can I recover my domain name and put my blog back online?
    thanx for your help

    site name: takethatfrance.com

    The blog I need help with is emybee.wordpress.com.

  • Your domain takethatfrance.com expired on March 22. We sent several email warnings both before and shortly after it expired.

    Domain expiration is a lengthy and complicated process that takes about 90 days. You can learn more about expired domains here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/

    The good news is that we are still able to recover your domain, as it is currently in the Redemption period: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/#redemption-period

    A late renewal fee of $80 will be added to the regular price of renewal. This fee is charged by our domain partner and is not one which we can waive. That’s in addition to your annual domain renewal from us, so the total is going to be $98.

    I have sent a payment request for the total of $98 to the email address on your account. Once the payment is sent, please reply here to let us know, and we will send a note to our domain partner regarding takethatfrance.com. This process only takes about 2-3 days start to finish.

  • 👋 Hi takethatfrancelive,

    I just wanted to let you know that your takethatfrance.com domain has been restored to your account.

    I suggest updating your payment method by going to My Account → Manage Purchases here: https://wordpress.com/me/purchases

    I hope that helps and please reach out again if you have any further questions.
