Hello, @olgavnyc

Keep in mind that DNS changes might take up to 48 hours in order to update due to ISP cache. You can check the DNS propagation using a site like https://www.whatsmydns.net/ and check if it’s properly resolving from different points around the world. Usually it happens a lot faster than 28 hours, but you still need to wait for few hours until the DNS zone fully propagates.

Let me know how it goes.
