  • Hi there, just to check – which domain was this that you wanted to restore?

    I understand you had two domains listed – one which was registered through WordPress.com, and one which was connected from another provider. The one you had registered via WordPress.com was cancelled by you just over a month ago on the same day that it was most recently renewed; and it appears to be going through the full deletion process.

    There’ss more information about domain cancellations here:

    I was trying to restore the domain that I had with wordpress.com. the one that you mentioned that is going through the deletion process. is there any possible way to stop that process? thanks.

  • Not at this time, unfortunately! The public status shows as “pendingDelete” when I check using ICANN’s tool, which is here:
    https://lookup.icann.org/en/lookup

    Generally what that means is that it will shortly be purged, and become availabe to register once more. We don’t have any specific information on when that will happen however – if you’d want to re-register that domain, it could be worth keeping an eye on the status for when the deletion completes.
