  It looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=bravotheagency.com

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Let me know if you have any questions!

  Thanks so much for your help!

  I had completed the steps that you advised. So, that wasn’t the problem.. However I posted another request for help as there hadn’t been a response. It would seem that even though the domain has expired, wordpress can’t register it and I need to pay another company for registration which doesn’t seem right – being forced to trade with a third party AND pay more money..
