Managed to get this resolved with @Namecheap turns out that my CNAME record with an @ as the host was over-riding the TXT record further down the chain

Thanks for the provided details! The domain brkoms[.]co[.]uk is spamvertized but was not used for sending the email. So @namecheap only take down senders? Makes no sense-- I reported this before. @phishing

@Namecheap @phishing I will try the same request tomorrow using exactly the same evidence and you will take down the website. You talking about internal policies to justify your lack of consistency is ridiculous. #phishing And I will share my experience with Namecheap for all to see.

@Namecheap @ecarlesi You did nothing-- all canned responses that makes no sense-- Look at the DM history to see your own lack of consistency in handling this issue- Your internal policies are your problem as is your lack of consistency. All in writing. #phishing

@khazifire I swtich from Namecheap. At the time I think it was cheaper to buy on Google Domains. But also I felt Namecheap's UI was a worse experience. I never need the advanced features - all my production domains are managed by Cloudflare. I trust Google more and like the simplicity.

So @Namecheap charged me for a subscription service I didn't activate and I'm not eligible for a refund. I'm now looking for alternatives. Please help me out. Thanks 🙈

@Namecheap The domain name has already been purchased using @Cloudflare without any issues or a text CS rep arguing with me. It was a simple .com domain even provided proof that it fit the clients branding still refused to allow me to purchase.

@basedafX @448_eth @unstoppableweb Yeah I agree. It seems very difficult to maintain this kind of value in #web3domains. When supply gains exponentially, and it probably will with UD raising $65 mil and Namebase being backed by Namecheap, prices must go down at some point.

@Namecheap @bollywagger Almost 1h30 of maintenance and no status update, would be great to know *at least* a little bit more. What’s the problem and what kind of ETA can we expect? Cheers.

@SachaGreif @Namecheap @hover I still use Namecheap as the default if I’m unable to transfer to Coudflare. Given their UI is something I don’t interact with often, it’s not too bad. And it has been reliable for as long as I can remember.

@SachaGreif I’ve been using Cloudflare because of the cost. Any site that I have on their I eventually migrate over. I like Google domains a lot too. Namecheap and Name always tax on renewals which sucks.

(@hidinginthevoid) reported
I'm baffled, I have the SPF records set in @Namecheap yet they don't seen to have propogated so @Fastmail is very sad. Anyone had this issue before? I've had the records in a few days and am still unsure what is going on!

@namecheap what's the deal, I registered last week a domain for a client, it worked, today it won't resolve, your site says the name is available, other registrars show it's taken, whois says NO RECORD, WTF, did your database crash or something?

@SachaGreif @Namecheap @hover I use Hover and Cloudflare. Cloudflare still doesn't support all TLD's so I use Hover for those.

@ecarlesi Thanks for the provided details! The domain brkoms[.]co[.]uk is spamvertized but was not used for sending the email. -- @namecheap refuses to take a domain reported because it didn't send the email-- some days this is a problem, some days it's not. #phishing

Hi @Namecheap, How much time does it take for you to take down a fraudulent domain that is a part of an active attack? Asking because I reported one 24h ago and still heard nothing back.

Client just asked me if she could BUY her domain…not register, BUY. She wanted to own it. Never really thought about it — is it even possible? As far as I know it’s not but it’s hard to believe Apple just gets their domain from namecheap like everyone else.

What does everybody use for buying/managing domains? I've been a @Namecheap customer for years but their dashboard has always been slow to load and navigate so I want to explore other options. Is @hover still basically the best there is?

@adamrenklint @Google @Pitch Namecheap handles this much better, they give a warning with the link, and 48hrs for us to fix it. But in this case it's Google not using its domain service, it's blocking the whole domain in Google Chrome.

@EniolaCodes @Bahddestjack Lol, this is why Namecheap remains the best, just chat support, and tell them exactly what you want, they will login to your cpannel and fix it for you.
