Purchased an Invalid Domain Name through WordPress

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    I purchased a domain through wordpress and now a separate company “Tucows” is telling me it is already owned by someone. I purchased puravidacharters.com, but apparently someone already owns that and has since 2008. How can you take my money for something you never had the ability to give me. Please refund my money. I don’t know how else to contact you except through this forum. We will host through a more reputable site. I heard GoDaddy is good.

    Thank you,

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

    Hi there. I’m sorry to hear about this mix up. I wonder: did your purchase go through successfully?

    I’ve tagged this thread so that the Staff can address your concern. Please be patient as they make their way to this thread. Thank you!

    It appears that you may have purchased a Domain Mapping Upgrade for a domain that was already registered by someone else.

    For more information about the differences between domain registration, hosting, and mapping, please see our page All About Domains:

    http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/all-about-domains/

    I’ve removed this Upgrade and refunded the associated charge. Please keep in mind that it takes 1-2 weeks for the transaction to show up on your financial statement.

    Also, the following domain is available:

    puravidacharters.org

    If you wish, you can add it to your site here:

    https://puravidacharters.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

    If you have any more questions regarding this transaction, let me know.
