  I just cxl’d my plan 1 day after purchase. My domain is now parked. I’m trying to reactivate it and transfer to another site. How do I go about this?

  Hi yathatryan23,

  Your domain was cancelled along with your plan. Do you want to transfer the domain to another registrar or use it on another WordPress.com site?

  I can restore the domain but I’ll need you to create a new site in the same account for me to add it back to. A refund has already been issued so I will need to send a payment request.

  The other option is to wait for the domain to become available and re-register it elsewhere. As it was cancelled so soon, it should be released in about 7 business days. This is the riskier option out of the two.

  Let me know what you would like to do.

  I’m afraid it’s not possible to speed the process up as this timeframe is set by the registry.

  Understood. If you don’t mind, when should I expect it to be available?

  Sorry Gemma, at this point can you just restore domain? I will remake site and please submit payment request.

  How do I know when domain is added back and where to I find payment request? Thanks for your assistance

  I checked your domain today and it has been released — you can now try to purchase it through another registrar.
