I picked a domain and want that but….
-
I decided I don’t want to pay for email so want to get rid of that before paying. How do I change my email and get rid of the one that would have cost me?

I do not know what you mean. WordPress.COM does not provide email service for blogs on their own domains. Please see:

In order to map to a domain URL one must have an underlying .wordpress.com sub-domain blog to map from, and the domain name you desire must be available for purchase, or you must already own the domain URL.
All that changes when you are domain mapping is the URL and nothing else. The content stays exactly where it is. What domain mapping does its create a seamless transfer between the underlying .wordpress.com blog URLs to the new domain URLs no matter where they are on the internet. Visitors who click the underlying .wordpress.com blog URLs will be seamlessly redirected to the exact same content under the new domain URLs.

Hi Folks,
@timethief, we actually allow folks to sign up for Google Apps now.
@stephanierasbach, I was able to remove it from your cart. For future reference, you would go to wordpress.com/plans then click on the cart icon, and click an X next to the upgrade you don’t want. You will need mapping and the domain registration, but I could remove the email so I did that for you. I hope that helps!

Noted. I didn’t know that was an upgrade. Bookmarked!
