  Not to worry, we can get this sorted out.

  It looks like you have purchased Domain Mapping for thejanjans.com. Domain Mapping is the upgrade you would use if you had thejanjans.com registered already with another registrar.

  Can I assume that you do not have thejanjans.com registered elsewhere?

  Hi, No I don’t have this registered anywhere else.

  Okay, I have removed the Mapping upgrade and added $13 in credits to your WordPress.com account.

  It looks like thejanjans.com is available to be registered. Simply log into your WordPress.com site’s dashboard, click on Store–>Domains, enter thejanjans.com in the “add a domain” box and click the “add domain” button. Then simply follow the instructions that appear to register your domain.

  Let me know if you have any trouble.
