    Hello customer support,

    I have mistakenly deleted my recently acquired domain http://www.davidpolsdorfer.com and would like to reclaim it. It is currently in the WordPress registry.

    Best,
    David

    Hi there! I checked on your domain and found that it was not successfully registered before it was canceled along with the hosting plan. You should be able to register the domain again as a new domain. You can add a new hosting plan on your site at Upgrades → Plans. Or you can register the domain at https://wordpress.com/domains/
