    Hi,

    My domain recently expired and I need to get it back. Please help as I don’t see an option for it to be redeemed or recovered on my end. Thanks so much!

    The site I need help with is lynnprmentality.wordpress.com.

    Hi! This domain is in redemption right now because it expired quite a while ago:
    https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/

    The registrar charges an $80 redemption fee in addition to the regular renewal fee. I’ve just sent an invoice. Can you pay that ASAP, then respond here to let us know that’s done? We can reach out to the registrar about getting it back. Once that’s done, it’ll work again; I’d recommend adding auto-renew so it’ll renew on time next year.

    If you don’t want to pay the extra $80 fee, you can allow the domain expiration process to continue, but please know that’s a risky process. Let us know and we can remove the invoice if that’s your preference.

    Either way, domain redemption is time sensitive, so let us know as soon as possible what you’d like to do.
