Hi, there.
My domain pineknoborganicfarm.com expired and I failed to realize until a month (!) after the fact. I’m really hoping there’s a way I can redeem the domain as quickly as possible. I realize there are probably additional fees at this point, I’m just hoping I haven’t really screwed myself over.

Thank you!

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

Hi there,

That domain is registered under a different account than the one you’re currently using to contact us.

Please log in to that account (shizuerocheadachi) and contact us again to help you restore your expired domain.

If you’re unable to access that account, please follow our Account Recovery guide:

Hi shizuerocheadachi,

Thanks for logging in. pineknoborganicfarm.com expired on 30th July 2018 and is currently in the redemption period.

At this stage, can still try to recover pineknoborganicfarm.com but an $80 redemption fee will be added to the $26 domain cost — I’ve sent a payment request to the email address on your Account Settings page.

I’ll start the recovery process by contacting our domain registrar once it has been paid.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Your payment has come through, thanks! I’ve contacted our domain registrar and will let you know when I receive a reply — this usually takes 1-2 business days.
