Upgrade

  • Unknown's avatar

    I was considering upgrading to Premium plan which already has no ads as part of it. Will I get a credit for unused portion of year I paid for in advance?
    Also, would I need to continue with the domain registration or is that included?

    I had an online chat yesterday about a refund for this upgrade and was told it was processed. I have had no email or further communication. Can someone look into this promised return? I am now on WordPress.org. Here’s copy of yesterday’s chat

    Dawn Hi, I need help with a cancel of upgrade within the 30 day time period
    Hari S Hi there! :)
    Hari S Which upgrade would you like to cancel?
    Dawn I upgraded to premium on December 29 I’m trying to convert to wordpress.org today
    Hari S Oh, alright.
    Hari S Could you help me out with the link to your site url as well?
    Dawn http://www.dawnengler.com
    Hari S Sure thing. :)
    Hari S You can cancel your upgrade by visiting this link:
    Hari S https://wordpress.com/purchases/
    Hari S You may want to log in with your credentials first.
    Hari S here, you’ll see an option to cancel your premium plan.
    Hari S Once you click ‘Cancel’, you’ll be eligble for the refund as well. :)
    Dawn I am trying to transfer my site and I don’t have an option on that page to cancel
    Hari S Oh I see.
    Hari S So, just to clarify: you would like to have the domain dawnengler.com point to your WordPress.org site that you’re going to set up , is that correct?
    Dawn yes, so I clicked transfer…then the cancel option went away
    Hari S If that is the case, you did the right thing.
    Hari S What do you see when you clicked transfer?
    Dawn I don’t understand…they are two different things
    Hari S please allow me to clarify both for you. :)
    Hari S Right now – you own the domain dawnengler.com, which is registered with WordPress.
    Hari S If you would like to use dawnengler.com with a WordPress.org site (hosted on a third party service), there are a couple of ways to do that.
    Dawn I’ve signed up with bluehost
    Hari S Great. :)
    Hari S So, if you would like to have your domain point to Bluehost, cancelling it may not be a good option.
    Dawn but the upgrade I paid for on December 29 I am not going to be using
    Hari S This is because when you cancel your domain with WordPress.com, it could go for auction and you may not be able to gain control over it.
    Dawn $64 down the drain
    Hari S Not at all!
    Hari S :)
    Hari S I can cancel the upgrade for you and issue you the refund.
    Dawn the domain name is NOT what I want to cancel
    Hari S And you can point your domain to bluehost without much ado (and no extra cost either).
    Dawn I want to cancel the Premium wordpress.com upgrade
    Hari S You would like to cancel the premium plan, right?
    Hari S Great.
    Hari S Could you please hold on for a moment while I look into this?
    Dawn now we’re on same page :)
    Hari S :)
    Hari S Actually, you had mentioned about the premium plan earlier on – but I guess I got confused.
    Hari S Please hold on while I look into this.
    Hari S I can see that you’ve already removed the subscription yourself.
    Hari S So, I’m going to issue you the refund of $64. :)
    Dawn thats because I hit the transfer option by mistake
    Hari S Oh, I see…
    Dawn now we’re really on the same page
    Hari S Totally.
    Dawn I like wordpress.com but I just want more options that come with the .org platform
    Hari S Oh, I see…
    Hari S WordPress.com offers a lot of features and is ideal for someone who would like to set up and manage their sites without having to worry about the technical hassles.
    Hari S But, if you would like to explore further options, WordPress.org ought to be your cup of tea.
    Hari S Btw, I just refunded your $64! :)
    Hari S The Premium Plan stands cancelled, effectively!
    Dawn I was looking for more options to use affliate stuff like amazon links to products I review
    Dawn thank you so much for your help Hari
    Hari S Oh, great.
    Hari S You’re welcome Dawn!
    Dawn Have a great day
    Hari S You too! :)
    Hari S Th
