  Hi there,

  It looks like you should be able to repurchase the domain again. It is showing as available: https://wordpress.com/domains/

  Let me know if you have trouble registering the domain and I will look further into this for you.

  Thanks,

  That is not the domain name. It’s ecletsentials.life

  Yes, ecletsentials.life is the domain I am referring to. You should be able to repurchase the domain again. It is showing as available. Here is a screenshot:

  That’s the domain we see that was restored. Can you let us know what’s happening on your end?

  I was able to get it back!😄
  Now I need to know how to get an authorization code for it to be host else where. Are you able to assist me?

  Hi there,

  Since that domain was recently registered, you need to wait 60 days to transfer it elsewhere. This 60-day lock is required by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and cannot be waived.

  In the meantime, you can keep the domain with us and point it to the hosting provider of your choice by changing its name servers:
