  Hey there,

  I checked the domain status and fridaytalksfood.com is now in a redemption period. You can still renew your domain through us, but it is now a more expensive and complicated process to do so. Our registrar charges an $80 late renewal fee in addition to the $26 we charge to renew the domain. The good news is that this is still a chance of reclaiming the domain through this option.

  Your other option is to wait until the redemption period is over so that the domain becomes available for registration again. Domains are usually in redemption for approximately 80 days, but with this option, you run
  the risk of someone else jumping in front of you to purchase the domain before you get the chance.

  Please let me know if you want to proceed with paying the late renewal fee in the attempt to reclaim the domain name. This option is also time sensitive because the domain can be auctioned off to an expired domain bidder.

  I would suggest enabling the auto-renew option so that you will not have to worry about losing control over your domain in the future.

  Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

  Hi, thank you for your response. I would like to renew my domain of fridaytalksfood.com. Please tell me how to proceed and how long it will take for my site to become live again.

  Again, thank you!

  Hi there,

  I will contact our domain registry partner and retrieve the domain. It will most likely take 24-48 hours to reactivate the domain.

  I’ll keep you updated once I hear from them and have restored the domain back to your account. Thanks!

  Ok. Great! At that time, I assume I will be able to renew from my account under purchases?

  In this instance, I will have to send you a manual payment for the renewal and fee. I won’t send it until I know for sure that we can retrieve the domain for you.
