  WordPress.com does not have access to webmaster tools…

  if you are using Google Webmaster tools search “Google Webmaster tools help”
  example, their link is : https://support.google.com/webmasters/?hl=en#topic=3309469

  do the same for what ever service you are using.

  WordPress.com DO support Webmaster tools:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/

  Anyway, I wonder what may go wrong with your robots.txt.
  Would you kindly post here what kind of errors are you getting?

  To clarify:
  The link given in the comment above shows how to connect third party webmaster tools.
  you will not have access to see robot.txt errors with wordpress.com own tools.
  Crawling is done by search and indexing services.

  Yes that’s true. Perhaps is good to wait until OP explains what kind of errors is (s)he getting. I opened the robots.txt, and I see nothing suspicious there.
