  Hello, I recently asked for my custom domain to be cancelled. This was done, but the WHOIS for the domain still shows my name, even though I no longer control it. Can the WHOIS be updated to remove my contact information?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  hi,

  From this whois reference
  https://manage.whois.com/kb/servlet/KBServlet/faq460.html
  a deleted domain continues to exist for a period of time (and therefore its WHOIS is also available) before it is finally deleted.

  You can wait it out or redeem it to then amend the WHOIS information, then delete it again.

  HI there,

  Since you canceled your domain, we don’t have any control over it and it will fully expire in about 80 days. You can read more about it here:
