Late fee bullshit
-
Why the late fee, I was out sailing and did not get your notice, your ridiculous insistent on a late fee, after you have closed the domain anyway will make you loose me as a customer. Please rectify this situation in 24 hours or close this account. I am willing to pay the yearly subscription but not your late fee. You are not even allowing sailingsearenity.wordpress.com as was promised when I originally joined. What a scam!

Your expired domain has gone into the redemption period and incurred a late-renewal fee to renew. I understand your frustration, but there is nothing we can do about the late fee. It is imposed on us by our registrar (and is standard practice for every registrar that I am familiar with). You can find more info on domain expiration here:
We strongly encourage users to set up auto renewal to avoid this sort of issue. But even if auto-renewal is not an option, we send multiple emails alerting users of domain expiration and put alert notices on the blog dashboard when users log in.
If the domain is important to you, I highly suggest paying the late fee and renewing as soon as possible. You can choose to wait out the expiration process and let the domain be released to the public marketplace again. But there is also the very real possibility that domain squatters or someone who simply wants the name will grab it before you do.
I have set the primary domain for your WordPress.com site to be sailingsearenity.wordpress.com. Having it set to be the expired domain was what was keeping you from accessing it. As was promised, your site will always be available at sailingsearenity.wordpress.com.
Please let me know if any of this is unclear or if you have any questions.
