  Hi there,

  It looks like you purchased the Site Redirect upgrade. In order to map your domain to your WordPress.com blog, you will need to purchase the Domain Mapping upgrade as explained here:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  I went ahead and issued a full refund for the Site Redirect upgrade as that will not replace your default WordPress.com URL with your custom domain. Please allow several days before the funds are available on your account. You should now be able to follow the instructions above to purchase the Domain Mapping upgrade.

  Let me know if you have any trouble!
