  I have removed the expired domain from your account as requested.

  Please note that expired domains become the property of our registrar partner and are only returned to the public market at their discretion. We have no control over how long that takes, but I have seen it take any where from 5 to 90 days.

  Yes, that is correct.

  I recommend trying to register it at least once a week.

  If it isn’t a available, your new registrar will let you know before you get too far along.
