yesterday I tried to register workspace with private account also started the registration process with a domain. then I deleted all.
The Workspace organization has been deleted successfully, and I can no longer access the Google Admin Console. However, when I try to create a new Google Workspace with the same domain, Google says that the domain is already in use.
It seems the domain is still reserved in Google’s backend even though the organization has been deleted. I would like to know how long it usually takes until the domain is released so I can register it again with a new Workspace organization.
It can take a while - 24-48 hours. Sometimes up to 7 days, I think. Use the instructions on the page linked below, following the ‘domain in use’ path to expedite the process.
Hi, I want to resume using my Google Workspace, so I signed back in after not using it for about 3 years. When I logged in, it asked me to make a payment. Since I originally bought the domain through Google, I assumed it made sense to pay the RM150+ because I thought it covered the past 3 years.
However, after making the payment, I couldn’t find my domain anywhere in Google Workspace. I checked my old emails and found that the domain had been suspended. I also signed in to Squarespace and discovered that the domain is no longer there. It looks like the domain has already been registered by GoDaddy.
What I’m confused about is why I was still able to sign in to Google Workspace using my domain email and even make the payment. Does this mean I still own the domain? If I do, how can I retrieve it? If I don’t, how can I request a refund for the payment I just made?
There is a difference between the ‘domain name’ registration and the Google Workspace subscription. It is quite possible to have an active subscription, but unusable because your domain name has expired. You might consider associating a new domain name with Google Workspace.
To explore a refund, talk to Workspace support using the contact details in your Workspace admin console - before you cancel the subscription.
