Pending Delete Status on my Domain

    Hello
    Thank You for your work here!

    My expired domain name is :
    lesilesvoisines.fr
    which was registered through WordPress has a pending delete status. 
    What are the bests ways I can get it back?
    The blog I need help with is:  lesilesvoisines.wordpress.com

    It look like close to being released.
    I would like to pay the fees needed for restore it.
    I have read somewhere, that :
    Once a domain enters pendingDelete, there is no way to get it back. 
    That means the domain is already past the redemption period, and the registrar is preparing to completely delete the domain. It’s not possible to request that they restore it at this point.

    So, once it’s released, anyone will be able to register it again, and I could lose it if anyone has it on back-order with another registrar.

    Is it possible to pre-book it with WordPress?

    This domain name is very important to me.
    I created a theater company in Besançon (France), and this domain name is registered everywhere: Artistic institutions, Theatres, Statutes of associations, Posters, Flyers and Show programs for this summer and after, many people in my network IRL, in my grant files or my show booking requests…
    I can’t lose it.
    Thank you so much for your help!

    Hi there!

    I’ve checked the domain, and it appears to be in redemption right now. You can learn more about domain redemption here.

    For .fr domains, the redemption fee is $30. I’ve sent a payment link to you via email that will let you pay the redemption and renewal fee. Please pay using the link in your email and reply here to let us know so that we can start the recovery process, which can take up to a week.

    Feel free to let us know if you have more questions.
