    @BitPay Bitpay please don't scam me release my money to my namecheap account, your support system is a crap

  • samlinkexpert Santosh Kumar (@samlinkexpert) reported

    @Namecheap my ticket [#BAG-336-95394] please respond urgently. Chat support person left without solving the payment

  • 11th_dim कुणाल परिहार (@11th_dim) reported

    @Namecheap Namecheap is not a transparent company. It rejects your comment on disqus if it's not in their favor even though it's a genuine customer grievance. Plus some fishy activity with the plugins. They keep installing litespeed plugin in my WordPress installation despite me disabling

  • catscandrive Steven (@catscandrive) reported

    @evolmk @Namecheap @sweetastandy Did you ever figure this out? I'm having same issue like a year later.

    @Namecheap hxxps://forvitesse-b8dae5.ingress-bonde.ewp.live/ES/clients/login.php Nuke it please!

  • Bocaj24419835 Bocaj (@Bocaj24419835) reported

    @valferrera__ @SaraSimoneNC @MissNoemiRose NameCheap .com - 100% better support than GoDaddy. Think of GoDaddy as the junk food of website hosting and registering. NameCheap is that delicious scone at WholeFoods.

  • rosspeili Agent Ross 🦇🔊🕵️‍♂️ (@rosspeili) reported

    Any project worth more than a million should be able to afford 24/7 response team if not live support. Learn from @Namecheap. Best sup on the net for almost two decades. Then you see a multi billion "community" NFT project that replies once in a month using an auto resp bot. Wtf

  • exclusivedotcom EvUSA.eth | USACondos.eth (@exclusivedotcom) reported

    @SebastienStaub HNS will be " hot " after the ENS or during? I have 30 or so, bought at namecheap and etc, i think they might be good ... i think! You think HNS coud go to 6+ figures? wow... damn

  • shonthebuilder Shon the Builder (@shonthebuilder) reported

    @Namecheap What is going on over there?? I cannot receive or send email and this is a huge problem. And now it says limited chat and delayed assistance? Looks like I will be migrating everything over to @GoDaddy or @HostGator. This is literally costing ME money. 😭

  • IAmNetcromancer Mink Poet (Super Optimus Mega Prime MAGA) (@IAmNetcromancer) reported

    Just an FYI for those of you that use Namecheap hosting... Email is down. No ETA on resolution. 🤷🏼‍♀

  • Laycon808 Opeyemi Olamilekan (@Laycon808) reported

    @Namecheap It just to like peoples tweets that Bitpay support knows how to do. There Human relation is zero. I just hope they are working for free one can't be paid and be this unprofessional

  • jpaulhendricks J. Paul Hendricks (@jpaulhendricks) reported

    @Travis_Jamison Congrats! I’m periodically forced to wade into their zone of dysfunction and corporate craphood. Recently took delivery of a name using that account.. always relieved to transfer out. w/Namecheap for 15+ yrs; never been disappointed. My first registrar in the 90s: Directnic.

  • coffeescreative CoffeeshopCreative (@coffeescreative) reported

    @Namecheap Whats the status of email servers? Email being down during business hours is unacceptable!

  • DanielleFong Danielle! 🌩 (@DanielleFong) reported

    @Namecheap @BenRatkaj i got it working! but the problem is that when you use namecheap hosting, there's no options to just pick gmail in the mail settings for DNS like Google suggests in *their* directions. you have to go in, find zone editor in cpanel, and then switch out the mx records. whole thing,

  • punkthilfe (punkt Hilfe) (@punkthilfe) reported

    @_sh1Tt @Namecheap Were they able to help you? The namecheap support redirected me to the namebase support.

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @AndyIbanezK Hi Andy, I am sorry that this case has caused so much distress to you, our valued customer. The matter is that Namecheap responsibly tries to prevent abusive domain registrations and reduce Internet fraud

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @SpamSheriff @cathaybank Please be informed that the abusive service has been suspended. Thank you for your report. Please let us know if there are other abusive domains registered or hosted with Namecheap

  • BillyMoses Billy Moses 🇺🇲 (@BillyMoses) reported

    @Namecheap Got an email this morning about a service you guys are offering to register LLC's. I have a quick question about that: I live in California, can I use the RelateLegal service to register an LLC for me in Arizona if I just want to sell online. No physical locations.

  • enqrypts 🤝 (@enqrypts) reported

    @js_horne Have you heard of Handshake? It allows for this. You can launch your TLD on a centralized service (Namecheap, Encirca, Porkbun, etc) or a decentralized service (@impervious) By launching, I mean selling/issuing SLDs on top 🤝

  • Makell_official Makell (@Makell_official) reported

    Last question. . What happens when handshakes .x or .nft is released? More law suits? How much of your VCs investment will go on lawsuits and legal fees? You managed to bully gateway but namecheap won't back down. The foundations of UD is built on lies and theft.

  • MarkosOdyssey Markos (@MarkosOdyssey) reported

    @Namecheap There are 2 domains got renewed on 6th Sept and I was busy with some emergency last 2-3 days. Can you help me getting refund?

  • IAmNetcromancer Mink Poet (Super Optimus Mega Prime MAGA) (@IAmNetcromancer) reported

    @Namecheap Namecheap chat (Olha Stepanova) says its still a problem... You and your site say its resolved. 🤔

  • Laycon808 Opeyemi Olamilekan (@Laycon808) reported

    @BitPay @BigCommerce I'm still yet to be credited, I contact namecheap to contact you still you are not doing anything all your support on twitter could do is liking some random tweets supporting your bad ways of treating people and there money

  • BradREdwards Brad (@BradREdwards) reported

    Namecheap’s email service is not great. 🫤 All outgoing mail ends up in Spam folder. How’s that gonna help in business? Back to the drawing board on email providers.

  • Laycon808 Opeyemi Olamilekan (@Laycon808) reported

    @BitPay And the support system on the website is not in anyway useful, I have sent a lot of messages and they didn't even bother to respond, the worst customer support I have encountered. Please release my money and send to my namecheap.

  • 11th_dim कुणाल परिहार (@11th_dim) reported

    @Namecheap Why do you keep installing litespeed plugin without customers' permission @Namecheap . It's my WordPress installation and I get to decide what I want on my website. I know such plugins reduce server load but don't do without the customer permission. Please stop such cheap tactics

  • AndyIbanezK Andy Ibanez (@AndyIbanezK) reported

    I normally buy my domains from @namecheap but I just had to use a different vendor because the domain I wanted had a “forbidden” word and told me to contact support. I’m not gonna go through the hurdles of talking to support to register a domain 🤨

  • IAmNetcromancer Mink Poet (Super Optimus Mega Prime MAGA) (@IAmNetcromancer) reported

    @Namecheap So helpful 🙄 Obviously I'm already chatting with support. I didn't randomly pick a support agent name out of the blue. 💁🏼‍♀ Probably shouldn't tell people its resolved when it clearly isn't tho. 😒

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO All the tickets which I mentioned before are fixed, now this is the new issue that needs to be fixed in September month. Don't know how many issues I will get this month

  • realRaydar Raydar (@realRaydar) reported

    @bitpay_supports Thanks for your reply. My issue however isn’t related to Wallet issues. It has to do with the intermittent issue you had with Namecheap. I tried depositing on Namecheap, and after sending the token using litecoin, the payment refused to confirm despite having 11mins left.
