  Hi there-Someone has tagged this for Staff attention. Staff will get back to you on whether they are able to recover your domain or not and what additional costs are involved. Here’s what happens when a domain expires: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-expiration/

  Also, I’m currently getting malware warnings from Chrome about your above WordPressdotcom site (temp screenshot). I strongly suggest reviewing your site and removing any questionable 3rd party links.

  Hi there,

  Once a domain enters redemption, our registrar charges a $80 fee to restore the domain. If you’re willing to pay this fee, let me know and I’ll email you a link to pay it. Once we receive payment we can email the registrar to restore the domain.

  I see you’ve also bought a Premium plan, so we can use the free domain in the plan to renew your domain once restored, but the redemption fee still has to be paid.
