Hi,
I am in a difficult situation regarding a domain I purchased through Google Cloud, and I need help accessing or transferring it after deleting the associated project.
The Problem
I bought a domain through Google Cloud/Google Domains. To stop the recurring monthly charges, I deleted the entire Google Cloud project associated with the domain. The project deletion is complete and the project cannot be restored.
-
I can no longer see or manage the domain in my Google Cloud or Google Domains account interface.
-
I contacted Squarespace (as I thought all of the Google Domain will be managed by them), and they confirmed they cannot assist with domains purchased via Google Cloud.
What I Am Trying to Do
I need to regain control of the domain so I can transfer it to another registrar (like Squarespace or any other).
What I’ve Tried So Far
-
Checked Google Domains/Cloud Console: The domain is no longer visible under my account.
-
Contacted Squarespace: They confirmed they cannot initiate the transfer from the Google Cloud side.
-
Contacted Google Customer Service: Since I am on a Basic support plan, I do not have access to direct technical support, and I cannot upgrade my plan without an active project.
Is there a way I can recover access to this domain or transfer it?
Thank you in advance for any guidance or assistance.
