  I would like to cancel and refund the domain called “lambulblog.com” which I bought 4 hours ago as I am using now a shorter domain

  When I tried to click the “cancel and refund” botton it tells me to request it by contacting with you

  Thank you for your attention

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Thank you for your help!

  @motuscompos –

  So you’d like to delete the domain tehdesign.me? Once we do that, you probably won’t be able to get it back. Just double-checking.

  Hi helper-brucea

  I would also like to cancel and delete the domain I just bought please. bliind.net is the domain. I only bought it 6 hours ago so should be entitled to a full refund.

  Like @lambul above, when i tried to press the “cancel and refund” button I was told to get in contact with you.

  Once I delete the domain, will it immediately be on the market to buy again?

  Thanks!

  No – can take some time to be released by to the wild

  @bliindmusic –

  As @auxclass says, it can take some time, and during that period, the registrar may put it up for auction, and there are companies/individuals who immediately purchase blocks of cancelled names so they can resell them at higher prices.

  If you’re looking to keep the name and use it somewhere else, you’re probably better off keeping it here at WordPress.com and using a mapping to point it to your site elsewhere, and then after 60 days you’d be able to transfer the domain.

  I’d hate to risk you losing the domain and not being able to get it back.

  Yes, i think I will take your advice and do just that. I would not want to lose the domain!

  Thanks,
