    @Namecheap Talked to support yesterday and no action has been taken. And talked to you guys today and my report was taken as suggestion. I don't think he took any action either since he couldn't give a ticket # for me track. Banning a bidder who bid up auctions should be #1 priority.

    ...bonus in employee emails, only for it to be a phishing test, which isn't nearly as awful as the layoffs, but is just really really stupid and inconsiderate. Anyways, @Namecheap has been very good to me, and so have @Porkbun. Never had problems with either. I have domains...

    @merrittk bluehost, domain through namecheap. i have namecheap hosting and it sucks but i’m too lazy to move now

    @Web3Auction @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Maybe write to support? They answer quick and accurate:-)

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO My Twitter handle is most of my name; it cost me £46 to realise I want to move, as an infosec professional I don't feel my assets are safe with a company that goad blackhats into pen testing the customer base, esp for myself. Hire a firm, Hire me, under NDA, not f'ing Twitter.

    @iwebspage @Namecheap Hi! Kyryl Private Email Product Manager is here. I apologise for the issue you faced. I reviewed the case and sent you the detailed summary in the ticket. Please check it and do let me know if any further assistance needed.

    @Namecheap Don't worry, transferred out to Porkbun, much better service.

    @SamOehlert @Namecheap So I could potentially see how that may not result in a broad customer notification.

  • DomainNameWire
    DomainNameWire.com (@DomainNameWire) reported

    Just logged into my namecheap acct for the first time in months to find out the .xyz domain I had that was unsuspended has been suspended again. No idea when. Never received notice.

    Blocked IPv4 address 192.64.117.56 due to massive #portscanning #abuse with about 100 kbit/s inbound for multiple hours, customer at .@Namecheap

  • dromanocpm

    @Namecheap and your support is trash. 2 pieces of advice, hire new developers for your billing, and hire new support reps, totally trash and I’m being refused help rather than the rep doing their job and escalating an issue if they are unable to carry it further!!! 💩

  • iwebspage
    iWeb (@iwebspage) reported

    @KirKryhin @Namecheap Hi Kyryl, yes I saw your reply and replied back. You don't have to apologize. Thank you for looking into this. I'm waiting for the issue to get fixed.

  • iwebspage
    iWeb (@iwebspage) reported

    @Namecheap Poor experience! Bought a private email. Got a blacklisted IP. Now I get emails from your team upselling me to get dedicated IP or VPS instead of giving new IP Shared IPs can be CLEAN too. U should mention on the sales page that customers WILL get spammed IPs.

    @Namecheap you need proper customer service

  • TheWranglerPNW
    Levi J Anderson (@TheWranglerPNW) reported

    @Namecheap Thank you for responding, but been there/done that with your support system and only got a runaround. Re-issuing a DV should be nearly instantaneous, but I've been stalled more than once and not wasting any more time.

    @Jaku @Lordmau5 Weird that the conversation maia and the namecheap CEO guy about gaps in their support system counts as an "incident". It had some heated moments but the conversation was overall productive, and at the end of the day everyone came out ahead. Huge win all around IMO.

  • dromanocpm
    Dominick Romano (@dromanocpm) reported

    @Namecheap seems to be turning into a Ukrainian domain reselling scam. Step 1. Prevent clients from being able to renew domains through our trash dashboard and refuse to help them. 2. Resell expired domains for thousands.

  • hrsandrei
    Andrei H (@hrsandrei) reported

    @Namecheap has the worst UX experience I've ever seen. Been trying to renew a domain and the order hasn't been processed. Meanwhile, I got charged for some domains that were expiring and didn't get a notification for failed charges or expiring domains. tyvm!

  • Snider_dev
    Snider (@Snider_dev) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Cool, I want you to fix the problem; I will answer questions if asked. I've had other infosec issues; that I can't/don't talk about, no idea if there's a link or not, IDC. Please don't provoke people to attack your company or your customers, it affects other people's lives.

    Issue with @namecheap solved, was just a glitch and I have the names now. Wish the live chat support was as good as the social media support, flawless. Thank you.

    @Namecheap, Cryptocurrencies, NFT, and all things blockchain are bad. Why are you even considering “web3” nonsense?

  • dromanocpm
    Dominick Romano (@dromanocpm) reported

    @Namecheap I’m losing my mind. This has been a serious problem for a long time. I’ve lost several high value domains that you guys went on to resell for thousands of dollars all because I couldn’t checkout, or add funds while receiving ZERO help.

    @kasarstore @Namecheap fix? ipogo

  • dromanocpm

    @Namecheap Then an hour or so later I get a response referencing old transactions for a problem I’m having this morning, and now. Truly unbelievable.

    @kongacare @ShopKonga when will you people learn? Always find a way to solve your customers issues….learn from the likes of Apple, Namecheap and make your customers happy. I requested for a payout from my wallet since 14th of this month, I’ve not receive anything
