    Hi Team,

    I had my blog mapped to chanderr.com earlier, the domain name expired. I have now upgraded to a plan that gives me a domain name, I am trying to claim this domain name and I get the message “This domain is already mapped to a WordPress.com site.” – Although the mapping has been removed (I am the owner / user)

    Can you please assist ?

    Thanks

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

    Hi there!

    Thanks for this information. Taking a look at the domain chanderr.com, it looks like because it previously expired, it’s now been placed into active expiry auction.

    This usually lasts for two or three weeks after expiry, and during this time, the domain can’t be redeemed or reregistered. If the domain isn’t sold at auction, it’ll then enter the redemption period.

    There’s a little more on that process right here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/#expiry-auction

    If you have any other questions about this, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

    Thanks. The Domain expired on the 23rd April. It has been over 4 weeks already. I keen to redeem it. Can you please do the needful.

    Hey there,

    No problem – in a separate email, I’ve sent a request to settle the registration fee, and once that’s settled we can get the ball rolling on restoring that.

    Please be sure to check any spam inboxes that may be in place.

    Many thanks!
