Upgrade/Plan issue after refund from business plan

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi!! I originally had the premium plan (built the whole site with it) and decided to briefly try the business plan but realized it wasn’t what I needed, so I got a refund. However, it appears the refund set me all the way to a free plan rather than putting me back to the premium plan I originally had. So now my domain name has the .wpcomstaging in it and also the homepage video is locked. I really just want it to be what it was prior to the business upgrade – how can I do this?

    I attempted to upgrade again, but when I click on the upgrade page, the entire thing loads as a completely blank screen. No idea why.

    Also, I thought the amount I was refunded for was only the amount that the business upgrade cost ($357.22 ), so I’m not sure why it would take away my premium plan, too, since I already paid for that originally. Unless I have my pricing wrong lol.

    Thank you in advance! :)

  • Hi there!

    Downgrading from a plan will not switch you to the previous plan. It will switch to the Free plan. Downgrading to a lower plan level requires our intervention.

    I understand that you want to switch to the WordPress.com Premium plan valid till 2026-08-09.

    We are working on the downgrade. The following changes will occur: https://wordpress.com/support/manage-purchases/downgrade-your-plan/#downgrade-from-a-business-or-commerce-plan

    We will update you once the WordPress.com Premium plan is activated on the site.

  • I have added back the previous WordPress.com Premium plan. You can manage the subscription here: https://wordpress.com/purchases/subscriptions/zerohale.com

    Let us know if you have any questions.
