Hi there,
Are you considering using your domain again on your WordPress.com site, or do you have plans to use it on a different platform?
If you’d like to keep it here on WordPress.com, no problem. I can send you a link to pay for the domain only, and then I’ll get it restored for you. Just remember that, in this case, it will only redirect to your free WordPress.com address. To make the domain the primary address people see when they visit your site, you’ll need to upgrade to one of our plans.
Now, if you’d rather use it somewhere else and don’t mind waiting a few days, your domain should become available again by early next week. Then, you’ll be able to register it directly with the provider where you want to use it. If you don’t want to wait, I can still restore it manually for you, as mentioned above, and then help you point it to the other provider.
Just let me know what works best for you.

I’d prefer not to wait and keep it registered at wordpress (no need to restore the site account though, I will pay for the domain here). Thank you!!

I’ve emailed you a payment form. Once you’ve completed the payment, reply here and I’ll restore the domain.
Once the domain is restored, you can point it to another provider by following these guides:
