  Hi, I am trying to delete my blog, dartmouthpac.wordpress.com, but I am unable to do so without removing my private domain that I had bought through WordPress (panasiancommunity.com). However, I do not have the option of removing the private domain myself. The private domain has expired. I would appreciate any guidance on next steps so that I can remove this blog, as it is misdirectly traffic since we have another website on another WordPress. Thank you
  Blog url: http://dartmouthpac.wordpress.com/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Staff can remove the domain for you and I’ve flagged this thread for their attention. Please be patient while waiting.

  Hi,

  I’ve removed the domain from the blog. Can you try it again?

  Wow, thanks for the fast response! I still cannot delete the blog. It should be through Tools > Delete blog, correct? The following message pops up.

  “Warning! You cannot delete a blog if the blog has a domain registration upgrade. You must have access to the blog in order to get to the domain manager.

  If you do not want to use your blog any more please make it private. Other users won’t be able to visit the blog but you can still access the Dashboard so you can get to the domain manager.”
