What is the exact URL that you are referring to?
We cannot provide accurate answers to any support question unless or until we have the site URL and can verify hosting.
To save you time you can type the actual URL of the site you are referring to into http://whoishostingthis.com to determine who hosts the site so you know where to post for support.
We provide support only for sites hosted on WordPress.COM servers. You could be posting to the wrong support forum. To be clear we do not provide support for local installs of WordPress.ORG software, or for WordPress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, linked to WordPress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites WordPress.COM account page.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support. -

Hosting provider: Automattic
WHOIS: Click Here
IP Address: 192.0.78.25

Hi there,
The domain, halfcakednj.com, was cancelled on the same day it was registered, 4 March, and you’ve been refunded for that domain so you no longer own it.
Cancelled domains are not released immediately, and it can take anything from a few days to over a year before a cancelled domain becomes available again, if at all. You should never cancel a domain that you still want to use, as there’s no guarantee that you’ll be able to use it again somewhere else in future. Only cancel a domain if you’re completely sure you no longer want it at all.
In this case I can still restore the domain to your account for the next day or two, or you can wait a few more days until it is released at which point you can register it somewhere else. If you want me to restore the domain I’ll send you a payment link to pay for the domain’s registration cost again.
Please let me know how you’d like to proceed.

Thanks kokkieh.
I don’t want to restore as we moved our site to a different platform. It sounds like we’ll have to wait this one out.

The domain should be released within another day or two, so you shouldn’t have long to wait :)
