  I seem to have lost my hostname beyond the possibility to redeem it under the purchase option. I think it expired about 2 years ago. How can I redeem my hostname?

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  First check if no one else has taken ‘your’ domain, you can do so at https://who.is/.
  Next you buy a wordpress.com plan and choose the domain you want to use, https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Hi there,

  Of what domain are you speaking? The account you’re using to post here has never owned any domains with us.

  I see you have a domain connection upgrade for the domain, svetlanatiourina.com, which you bought from us yesterday, but the domain itself is registered with Hostnet.nl.

  At the moment the domain is also still pointed at them. To point it to us, log into your account at Hostnet, or contact their support, and point the name servers to us as explained at https://wordpress.com/en/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/#change-your-domains-name-servers
