Spaceship (@spaceship) reported@Atifel_ We take accusations of front-running very seriously, and we want to assure you with 100% certainty that Spaceship never registers domain names based on customer search queries. The domains you provided are registry premium and not registered with Spaceship or Namecheap. Because the registry determines the base cost for these premium names, the higher price applies to both the initial registration and the annual renewals.

Saud Ilyas (@saud_ilyas) reportedFor the first time in 10 years, I moved the .io domain out of Namecheap to save $25 on renewal lol; never thought of moving any of the 2k+ domains I've managed with Namecheap for years. 3x the price is unjustifiable. Could potentially save up to $10k a year by moving every single one to Cloudflare on renewal. But that’s a very big headache doing one by one, so i’ll pass for now!

Prashant Singh (@prashant_gigs) reportedI don't know when the domain registrars will understand user experience is as important as your domain service. --- okish -------- - hostinger - godaddy ---- garbage ---------- - namecheap

Johnmark Obiefuna (@jayhemz) reported@Nueltek a few minor inaccuracies here. > low-traffic websites the hypernova VPS subscription on Namecheap accomodates up to 10TB in bandwidth. that's more than enough for most traffic loads. > if the VPS goes down it's still more reliable than shared hosting > if one website gets compromised, the entire server could be at risk true. only if the exploit gets a hold of 'root' > 1 site experiences a major traffic spike cloudflare to the rescue > single point of failure? cloudflare to the rescue hehe.

Ken 🧙 (@thekenndubisi) reportedHow to setup an online business doing $1k a day revenue in 30 days: Step 1: Register a business and get a biz bank account. If you’re in Canada, use Ownr. If you’re incorporating in the US, use LegalZoom or Bizee. Step 2: Setup a business email address with Namecheap, connect it to Gmail and sort out tax registration (GST/HST in Canada, EIN for the US) 3: Choose your niche, build your one person offer and price it for an easy yes. A rough example: “I help local gym owners get 10-20 new member leads using meta ads in 30 days or less for $500 a month” 4. Setup your ad account and launch your one-person ad. Rough example: “Attention Toronto gym owners, are your ads getting clicks but no members? Most gym ads fail because of xyz. I help gym owners get x qualified signups using this. Click to watch this 3 minute video showing how it works” 5. Send the traffic to a landing page with the VSL that has these 3 components: a headline mirroring the ad, a short video speaking about the problem, and a link to book a call. 6. Get on a call and ask these 4 questions: where’s your business right now? What have you tried so far? If we solved this like this, what would that look like for you? Here’s how we’ll solve this bottle neck….” and then present your offer. It’s not easy but it is simple; don’t over complicate it. Do this and get to $1k a day within 30 days. You want my help setting this up? Send a DM.

Cemal Coban (@uzakyolkaptani) reportedWhy @Namecheap Live Support need always 5-10 minutes before speak with you ?
-
Baber Rizvi (@BaberRizvi) reported@Namecheap @NamecheapCEO It's been almost a week now since my business websites are down because my namecheap server is down and support team can't even turn on the server so my team can connect to bring my sites back up. Who will be responsible for my business losses. I hope someone from namecheap will show some courage and at least turn on the server which I am paying for. Also there is no phone number to call and speak to someone so only way to communicate is either email or chat. Such a horrible service they don't care what it means to a business which heavily rely on website and it's been down for this long.

Hackology (@Hackology) reported@Namecheap Glad it's sorted ....imagine I spent 15 odd minutes figuring out what's wrong with my sites, never occurred to me it could be the host aswell - 😶

Rajiya Sultana (@HeyRajiya) reported@ZimalDesigner_ godaddy and namecheap mostly, never had issues with either 👍

Sanjay Lazar (@sjlazars) reported@baxiabhishek @Namecheap Name cheap is just that ! Cheap !! I’ve had a similar experience a year ago, and I never went back to them. Buy domains elsewhere and pay a wee bit more for peace of mind
-
Shant (@ShantDotMe) reported@Namecheap that security ticket is with bluehost, not you (thankfully). But 3.5hrs on chat to ID an IP is way too much. and that came after they reviewed the info I provided?? 🤯 I could easily rate this as the worse experience I had with your service!
-
Christine Harrington (@savvysaleslady) reportedMy domain was shut down by @GoDaddy on May 10th. No idea why & the domain was paid up for a year back in Feb. 2026. I’ve called twice a day trying to get this resolved with GoDaddy. Absolutely a waste of my time. I moved the domain today to @Namecheap but GoDaddy is now taking 5-7 days to initiate the transfer. I’ve reached out to @GoDaddyHelp numerous times with no response. Can you imagine providing such poor service?
-
David O. Ehibor (@grayontop_) reported@AlfinCodes Namecheap altho I had a bad experience with them and it took time to get resolved. Cloudfare is a better option.

Fanboy.nz (@fanboynz) reported@Namecheap What did you find? based on the hundreds of domains it creates weekly on your service.

Georgii Tselkovskii (@Existentios) reportedIt has never been cheaper to build a startup. Claude for coding — $20/mo Supabase for backend — free Vercel for deploys — free Namecheap for domain — $20/yr Stripe for payments — % only GitHub for version control — free Resend for emails — free Clerk for auth — free Cloudflare for DNS — free PostHog for analytics — free Sentry for error tracking — free Upstash for Redis — free Pinecone for vector DB — free You can literally launch with ~$20/month. The hard part is no longer building. The hard part is getting people to care.

Álvaro Trigo 🐦🔥 (@IMAC2) reported@levelsio Yeah moving all my domains to Cloudflare too. Namecheap ui and price sucks now .

-
K S (@kj_kjato) reported@Namecheap Never once have you reached out to me properly to verify my claims you know how to find my contact information. I’ve already told you where it is not affiliated with that garbage. Please reach out and rectify the problem. I don’t want to call the police department again😡😡😡
-
jaseeey (@jaseeey) reported@Codebender_Cate Noooooo! The GoDaddy control panel is terrible and slow. I have a few domains there because Namecheap doesn't support all of the TLDs that I use. However, I'm certainly not disagreeing with the prices, it feels like the recent increases have been quite steep...
-
Phil (@0xPhilH) reported@milanm_ @levelsio @Cloudflare To add here, since CFs offices are in France, they overcomply with every bs EU request, even if you host a service that is US only. They won't do that for the content part, so namecheap registar + CF dns + CF CDN is actually best of both worlds combo.
