  Hi there,

  When you change your site address this is permanent and cannot be undone. This is why we show a clear warning message before you finalize the change.

  We may be able to restore the domain to your account but it will be associated with a separate (empty site) since all site contents were moved to the site at the new address. It may be possible for you to manually import your media back on to the empty site but this may not correctly restore the previous links you had.

  Changing your site address is very much a one way street in this regard. Sorry that we are not able to be of further assistance.

  Thanks for your response…

  nevertheless is it still possible to restore the empty site. I shall work on manually importing it. Sorry for the trouble.
