  I have now managed to unlock and transfer my domain name of chawlaandcompanyadvocates.com to my website of https://chawlaandcompanyadvocates.wordpress.com however the domain name of
  chawlaandcompanyadvocates.com is not reflected notwithstanding and the cart is still showing outstanding upgrade to Premium when already it has been confirmed by the wordpress engineers that the site has been upgraded to premium!

  Hi there,

  I can see you now have the Premium Plan on your account, but you have not yet added any domain transfer upgrade.

  Go to My Site ->Manage ->Domains and click on Add.

  Select the option to use a domain you already own, and select the domain transfer option.

  According to the status for your domain in the Whois database, the domain is still locked, so that is why our system also thinks it is. Please contact support at your current domain provider and make sure they have unlocked it for transfer on their end, and also that the domain is not under a 60-day ICANN transfer lock.

  You can find detailed steps for the domain transfer process here:
