Deleting a Domain Name

If you already have a domain name registered, you can delete it from your Control Panel within the Money Back Grace Period. Deleting a domain name will immediately stop all functionalities (like the website and emails) associated with the domain name. Also, a domain name explicitly deleted would entitle you to a refund of the entire amount, and there would be a charge of USD 1.0 for the Deletion.
