How To Switch Root Account

This might not be the right palce to post, but here goes:

I have a reseller account and the root directory i use, is expiring at 12am tomorrow morning, an di dont have the money to pay for it for a few days. How would i go switching the domain to a domain im hosting undere the reseller acount. Is this possible to get rid of the root account and switch it for a different domain? Thanks to anybody who can help.

Are you planning on renewing it?
Or buying a new domain?

If you are buying a new one, then you can contact support to get it change i believe.

To change the account's domain name will require a one-time fee of $10.
