@saintvienna Domains purchased through @Namecheap the hosted on @Cloudways Never had any issues with them

@j_ajagan It's definitely up to you whether to choose our services. As for the details - the matter is that the Support account and Namecheap account are unrelated (you may have 0 NC accs and several support ones to talk to us), thus it is needed to log in separately

For years my web hosting needs, including a number of websites and five or six email addresses, have been provided by Bluehost. But they were bought up by a mega provider, became heartless, and outsourced all service overseas. I already moved my DNS hosting to Namecheap, (1/2)

@hmdfutbol @saintvienna @Namecheap Why is it a no go? Genuinely curious. Everyone slags it off but I find it good. Their WhatsApp customer support is excellent.

@Namecheap I may not like Namecheap's UI but your support is S-tier haha. It's a long list of problems, but I'll send a DM

@Namecheap you may be interested on the latter (on which I sent an abuse report 15 minutes ago, but I didn't find the network element)

@tragicrain911 @Wicked_Bull And/or consolidate domain names. Maybe domain names of companies that will be coming in to holdco are on Namecheap? Who knows? Either way, good move as Godaddy sucks...

@unwoman @Namecheap This is pretty bad. I have several donains through @namecheap but now I am going to make sure to never check that box. 48 hours of downtime is unacceptable.

@_jasonmountford @saintvienna @Namecheap Because alot of the time the customer support over email is lacking, the consistent malware attacks and the lack of awareness/support makes it impossible to consider then

Oh nice, my website is down because it seemed like "Premium DNS" would be a nice thing to add. Thanks a lot, namecheap, this was exactly what I didn't want to happen!

@Namecheap why do we need to go to support to transfer i just expired domains when we have authentication code? such a simple process made ridiculous.🤔

@kalasekdotcom @Namecheap I'm sure you are not and thus imo Namecheap is not a registrar for you. Their ethics is more than questionable and support is bad. Prices are ok (except when the charge abusive fees for nothing), but there are so many better registrars with good prices

@Namecheap Cool. I decided to reconsider whether to stay with this nice explanation as I mostly transfer domains about the time it expires. I cannot contact namecheap everytime when it should be automatic. The support ticket also not including information even when logged in.

Namecheap livechat. agent is asking me what ssh is. He then googled it and posted the wiki back to me and asked what my problem is. NOW I KNOW WHY NAMECHEAP IS CALLED NAMECHEAP

@angrymouse_hns Namecheap will begin rooting HNS domains this week. My guess is Opera will sync their support of HNS domains to release at the same time as the registry launches. Activity should start picking up real soon.

@namebasd Unfortunately, their support not available at all for non-customers. Pre-sales questions are not encouraged. I would like to try or at least know if SLDs from Porkbun or Namecheap also work before signing up for an annual subscription for $45…

@Namecheap Like, what on earth is the point of selling a service for a *currently running website* whose purpose is to keep it up, when to add it takes the site down for 48 hours????? I know this isn't your fault, social media person, but heck!!!

@unwoman @Namecheap What the hell even is "Premium DNS"? Are you going to look up the address faster now? Is it part of hosting? 100% DNS means they can translate the name to the IP address but if the host is down how is that going to help people see the website? I'm confused on what this even is.

@noahflk I actually don't like namecheap. The UX is horrible IMO. I'd stick with a service like Porkbun or Gandi if they had more tlds at better prices.

@DubBusLive @Namecheap Just got to the bus stop in stoneybatter where a number 70 had just closed the doors. I knocked at the door and the driver looked at me and drove off. Customer service at it's best

TIL that Cloudflare has a domain registrar service with great prices. A .com costs $8.50 Unfortunately no country specific domains so I’m staying with Namecheap for now.

@kalasekdotcom @Namecheap Except if you are involved in cybersquatting and similar activities than Namecheap has specialized in, both for itself and for its clients, there's imo no reason to have domains with them. The US have several of the worst registrars (ie Netsol) but also decent ones like Dynadot

@Namecheap How other companies are able to do it with out help of support? This is ridiculous explanation. Also when I am logged in why I need to give all the details again. Why support ticket is not including details?
