To change site address
-
Hiya Guys,
When I want to change my site address, it says that the site name is taken. Now I’ve asked the person who made the site to delete his site so I can use the name. He wasn’t using it anyway.
Now when I want to change the site address, I get the same message. Site name is taken. But when I go visit the site, it doesn’t excist anymore.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Too bad you did that because he could have transferred it to you account http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account but it’s too late for that now.
Deleting a blog URL is not easily done and multiple warnings that deletion is intended to be permanent and non-reversible are given all along the way.
Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and the only exceptions are made are for URLs that were deleted 2 or more years ago. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
You can register another .wordpress.com blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/
Then if you wish to you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade because it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.
