  Hi,

  I have a wordpress site (weareliverpool.co.uk), it is hosted through Hostinger but I purchased the domain through WordPress. I was having directing the domain to the website and accidently cancelled the domain. I still want the domain but I want to transfer it to Hostinger but it just says ‘The domain is parked’ whenever i go on the website. Is there any way to get it back or when will it become available again?

  Many Thanks,
  Elliot

  Second sentence should say: “I has having trouble directing the domain to the website….”

  Hi Elliot, you were refunded for the domain, so we’d need to charge you for it again. Then we can restore it on our end, and you would be able to point it to your new host.

  You could transfer it later, though most domains have a waiting period of 60 days after registration.

  Will that work for you? If so, let us know and we’ll send the domain invoice.

  I have sent a payment request for the $18 domain registration fee to the email address on your account, since you have already received a full refund.

  Once paid, please reply here to let us know, and we’ll recover the domain.
