    @ThorNodes Guys namecheap is crap - all the time, everytime! Don't host it there either.

  • repsofsunshine Ray of Sunshine (@repsofsunshine) reported

    Anyone buy a .fi domain? Google domains and namecheap don't support the .fi tld so I have to find a new registrar to buy from. Having a hard time finding one that I trust. Recommendations appreciated!

  • andrewphoria _ (@andrewphoria) reported

    @PaulTTran @ThorNodes probably cause they own both of them. all the websites that went down were owned by the same person, got reported to namecheap. the wallets are not multisig, single sig. I'm sure I'm blocked after this but yeah. happy trading!

  • CryptoSunriseX CryptoSunriseX (🎩, 🎩)🔺⚡️ (@CryptoSunriseX) reported

    I think it's fair to say- If you're looking for a domain name or webhosting service.. DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT, use @Namecheap They will suspend your service if someone tweets about you..no kidding. Complete clowns 🤡

  • Chrisvpr Chris Vargas (@Chrisvpr) reported

    @Namecheap My EasyWP site just disappear. Please Help

  • GrainedDots Quagga.eth 💜 (@GrainedDots) reported

    @ViaEth @BrendanRyder @zerozerocoins damn. at least NameCheap took a few hours..

  • lazurs1 Thomas Burns (@lazurs1) reported

    @Namecheap Is your increase due to log4jam? I know @GoDaddy had long hold times a couple of weeks ago due to compromised sites or just pure over load. Is NC having the same issues? I've really found you guys pretty reliable all the time I've used you. :) Your my go to for personal hosting.

  • jake99hive jake.hive (@jake99hive) reported

    @CryptoSentimen6 Namecheap had other intentions and took the website down along with Thor and comb

  • OhmieStronghodl Combee StrongHodl 🌱 (@OhmieStronghodl) reported

    Anon: Hi, Namecheap, a service is suspending legit businesses based on FUD alone. Namecheap: What is the offending service? We will suspend it with immediate effect. Anon: @Namecheap Namecheap: Done. After careful consideration, we have suspended ourselves for good. 🤡

  • benjamistan Benjamistan.eth (@benjamistan) reported

    I was most impressed by the service from @Namecheap today. 🙌

  • MaziUnited Mazi Of The East (@MaziUnited) reported

    @TobyNwazor @Namecheap Their customer support is top class

  • AmalindaGamage Amalinda (@AmalindaGamage) reported

    @Namecheap may I ask why DNSSEC support is missing for .SG domains?

  • TheRealSamuelM Sam Mortimer (@TheRealSamuelM) reported

    @Namecheap Has the issue with upstream domain provider registration been fixed yet? Was unable to register a .net.au earlier

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @Shadowsuv @Namecheap Thanks. We have a "Domain Vault" product on the way that will add more protection and checks for verified customers. We hope that will address part of the issue. The other is human which we are addressing.

  • jake99hive jake.hive (@jake99hive) reported

    @ecarlesi @Namecheap No that wasn’t meant for you it was meant for namecheap. They took down three websites today because of a dudes tweet. Sorry for the confusion but **** name cheap. Some guy just said it and they said “ done” no context nothing. Not realizing that there’s millions of dollars

  • YoitsMeKevster Kev (@YoitsMeKevster) reported

    @Namecheap All my sites are down is there maintenance on VPS servers as I am on VPS hosting

  • SergeKannon Serge Kannon (@SergeKannon) reported

    @NellyOmosh @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap That's because they are not here to help you. They are only here to help the scammers scam you.

  • dSebastien Sébastien Dubois (@dSebastien) reported

    @dupont_benoit I used OVH too but now use Namecheap. Cloudflare is epically good. If I remember correctly, OVH was also limited to 1-2 mailboxes and I don't know if they did have support for aliases. On Cloudflare mail, no mailbox, but I can add many mail redirects

  • TxAgKy0399 Kyle (@TxAgKy0399) reported

    @Namecheap I have a ticket open and it's been several days about one of your domains hijacking a legit name and attempting to steal customer information. Does NameCheap not ensure security for its customers and/or protect against domain hijacks? Waiting...

  • TobyNwazor Toby Nwazor (@TobyNwazor) reported

    One of my websites- www.mystartupceo(dot)com- was hacked and I reached out to my hosting provider (name cheap). The way they supported and helped me to restore my website in a very short while is nothing short of incredible. I am never leaving @Namecheap.

  • MayContainsNuts MayContainsNuts (🐸,🐸) (@MayContainsNuts) reported

    @Namecheap I'm glad I moved out years ago, these clowns can close your account based on random anon tweet. 🤡🤡🤡 Cheap in the name, but also cheap in the service

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @AmalindaGamage Hi! Thank you for asking. At this time it is not possible to set up DNSSEC for .SG registered with Namecheap since our upstream provider does not support adding DNSSEC records to .SG domains zone. I am sorry for this inconvenience.

  • RoopeKolu R (@RoopeKolu) reported

    @ThorNodes @Namecheap Fix the Accept Contract button, cannot get nodes

  • fcukfacts Kresi (@fcukfacts) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO dear the risk management you have still not providing my refund and claims it is being returned i can never contact the bank without transfer details which your team never replies ???? CYJ-880-37212

  • greggpress Gregg Press (@greggpress) reported

    @Namecheap How can we enlist your help to catch a major illegal SMS/SPAM house registering domains with you regularly?

  • gavinmNZ Gavin M (@gavinmNZ) reported

    @DylanReeve @BNZ @Namecheap Yep, they have improved a lot on this. I've submitted a request via their usual channel as well so we'll see if it can be taken down before someone suffers from it.

  • litocoen lito (@litocoen) reported

    @NamecheapCEO hey sir can you write me a dm i am trying to buy a domain on namecheap but your customer support is rejecting my request without giving any explanation as to why

  • wilcochris Chris Wilcox (@wilcochris) reported

    The @Namecheap model makes 0 sense. They favour new customers over longstanding ones. I can get a hosting plan really cheap and when renewal comes they forget about you and offer no loyalty discounts! I’ve been a customer for 6+ years. Why even bother anymore!

  • cjtheway Cody (@cjtheway) reported

    @nemesis09 @Infosec_Taylor @Namecheap Totally agreed, it’s like night and day. In my last role they were so hard to work with, but that was as more of a network admin. The recent change of issuing lightning-fast takedowns is something seriously impressive! 👏👏

  • hcx hcx (@hcx) reported

    @namecheap pls fix mailservers never sticking to how i set them i just broke my keyboard because of how annoying you guys are isn[t that epic
