  I accidentally pressed the enter key when I was creating my blog and was still in the process of deciding the domain name. I don’t want the domain name that I accidentally chose. I don’t think I verified it yet because I didn’t click the link; is there anything I can do about this?

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

  If it is within the 48 hour period for refund, since you don’t want the domain, you can simply cancel it via your Dashboard and purchase the domain you wanted.

  Here is the process for cancelling the domain

  I actually didn’t purchase the domain, I registered it as a free one. I suppose I could just start a completely new blog, I just didn’t feel like leaving the unwanted one floating around unused.

  plantdemic.wordpress.com doesn’t exist
  Do you want to register plantdemic.wordpress.com?

  If you actually were billed for anything you could determine that by clicking into these locations:
  Store > My Upgrades
  Store > Billing History

  Actually, having an extra blog is really handy for tinkering with themes and widgets. Just set it as Private.
