    Hi there, when you cancel a domain, it goes through a short grace period followed by a lengthy redemption process.

    You can recover the domain during the grace period without extra fees. After that, during redemption, the registrar adds an $80 redemption fee. And unfortunately the domain you cancelled is in redemption now.

    The good news is all of your site content is still there at the address you listed above. And, while you did cancel your plan, you would still have some months left. I’ll add those back for you.

    Regarding the domain, I can see a few options for you:

    – Get the domain back now ($80)

    – Buy a different domain (you could add the original domain if you’re able to buy it again later)

    – Keep the free wordpress.com address in hopes that the domain will be freed up again at some point

    What would you like to do? We can send an invoice if you’d like us to reach out to the registrar to get it back; just let us know. And since domain issues are very time-sensitive, we’ll want to act quickly.
