How do I go about getting my old domain back? I tried whois but didn't find anything. Is there anything else I can do to try and get it back?

what did the whois record say?

Who's your current provider?

It says I have to go through TUCOWS, INC. It expires in 11 days. If I wait til it expires, can I just buy it again from my other host?

Have you contacted your domain registrar?

Not enough information to understand and make any comments on what you should do.

why didn't you just transfer the domain when you switched host's?

How much does transfer cost?

usually the same amount as a new 1 year domain registration. the exact price depends on your chosen registrar. this will however also extend your registration by 1 year, so in the end the transfer is free.
