  In the future, it might be helpful if you could include the domain name we are talking about here so we can look up the whois info to be more helpful. As far as I understand it, WordPress.com does NOT accept incoming domain transfers so – you are able to continue to use ehost.com as your domain name registrar and by using their domain service you can update the DNS settings at your ehost account to point to WordPress.com and use domain mapping. YOu can learn more about this (which I use for many of my clients’ WordPress.com website as well so I recommend this option for you) at:

  @fattymattybrewing is correct –

  We do not accept incoming domain transfers, but you could point the domain’s nameservers from your current hosting provider to WordPress.com. Our support page will guide you through the process of pointing your domain’s nameservers to us:

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
