And a note, you don't have to delete it if you think you'll ever want to use the address again. You can set your WordPress.com blog as private under Settings > Privacy.

I've removed the domain mapping upgrade for brendakookt.nl from your account. Let me know if you need help with anything else!

You can continue doing just that, keeping your domain name with us and using another hosting provider. Or, if you no longer wish to keep your domain name with us, you can transfer it to another registrar using this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/transfer-domain-registration/

I hope someone can help me.
I want to delete my domainname brendakookt.nl from my wordpress account brendakookt.wordpress.com.

This because I started own hosting, so I don't want to use wordpres.com anymore, using wordpress.org now.

Brenda
