    Since you canceled the payment and requested a refund, the domain rangamanch.ca will likely go through a release process. Here’s what happens and how you might be able to reclaim it.

    What Happens When You Cancel a Domain on WordPress.com?

    1. Refund Processing – Since you canceled the payment, the domain is being refunded. It will no longer be associated with your account once the refund is complete.
    2. Domain Lock Period – Most domains enter a “redemption” or “grace period” before they are fully released to the public.
    3. Availability Check – If the domain is released, it will be available for registration again, either on WordPress.com or through another domain registrar.

    How to Reclaim rangamanch.ca?Step 1: Check If WordPress.com Still Has the Domain

    • Go to WordPress.com > Domains and see if rangamanch.ca is still listed under your account.
    • If it is there, you may be able to renew or repurchase it.

    Step 2: Contact WordPress.com Support

    • Since you originally purchased it on WordPress.com, their support team may be able to help recover it.
    • Visit WordPress.com Support and explain:
      • You canceled the payment and requested a refund.
      • You now want to reclaim the domain.

    Step 3: Check Domain Availability

    • Use a WHOIS lookup tool (https://who.is or https://ca.godaddy.com/whois) to check if the domain is:
      • Still owned by WordPress.com – You may have a chance to repurchase it.
      • In redemption or pending delete – You might need to wait before re-registering.
      • Available for public purchase – If it’s free, you can register it again.

    Step 4: Register the Domain Again

    • If the domain is available, you can buy it again on:
      • WordPress.com (via My Site > Domains > Add a domain)
      • A third-party registrar (like GoDaddy, Namecheap, or Google Domains)
      • CIRA (https://cira.ca) since it’s a .ca domain.

    Important Notes

    • Timing is crucial: If WordPress.com has already released the domain, someone else could buy it.
    • Redemption period costs extra: If the domain is in redemption (usually 30-40 days after cancellation), WordPress.com might charge a redemption fee to recover it.
    • Third-party registrars: If WordPress.com can’t recover it, try another registrar before it gets taken.

    What Should You Do Now?

    1. Check WordPress.com > Domains to see if you can reclaim it directly.
    2. Contact WordPress.com support ASAP to see if they can help recover it.
    3. Use a WHOIS lookup to check the domain’s current status.
    4. Re-register it quickly if it becomes available.

    Let me know if you need help checking the domain status! 😊
