@b0rk @core Aw that sucks. I've used namecheap for years for many dozens of domains and have been really happy with them. To be fair, I use them mainly as a registrar and immediately set nameservers to CloudFlare. Though I also setup a cheap mailbox for a client and that was good too.

@b0rk Stay away from @Hover. After being initially the best service out there, it turned into one of the worst experiences I ever had with a registrar. Unfortunately, @Namecheap is not much better.

@H_Miser @Namecheap I think i have never seen a legit service behind duckdns since i'm working on that field.

@nimbornone Okay so the domain name reservation is managed by epik, so what? They could have used Hover, GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google Domains... they all do the same thing. Is there a question about what a domain name registrar is/does? I’m actually a IT pro and may be able to help.

@b0rk (2/2) With registrars who fulfill registrations through a reseller, there is an additional layer to solve any sort of issue. It's a small industry so if something goes awry at the registry level, we @namecheap are able to contact execs at our registry partners to escalate.

@Namecheap , implying that they are owed money by stating "we have yet to receive payment. Upon visiting the linked site, which is on all those domain names, the user is presented with something that just barely explains that this is for "search engine registration" and a "service". /

@b0rk namecheap's been pretty good. good UI, 2FA, free privacy, auto-renewal. only hiccup was when i tried to register a domain with "covid" in it, and it acted like it added to my cart but wasn't there. apparently an anti-scam feature, and support straightened it out.

As a longtime @Namecheap customer, I'd recommend staying away. What used to be one of the best domain registrars now is falsely advertising pricing on their domains, then waiting until you've checked out to change the price to a much higher one. Disappointing.#webhosting #domains

@Namecheap This information and using it against the victim to claim that they have already paid for this service and charging even more fees (sometimes exorbitant) that they often convince the victim they can't get out of. My thread explains how I was witness to this firsthand.

@Javi @Namecheap I just hit the same issue. It seems like this is purely a Namecheap thing, NOT a .es thing. I transferred the domain to another registrar (Hexonet, who Namecheap are just reselling for .es domains anyways) and was able to renew it there at the normal price.

@ZigPress With Namecheap, as long as the script is running, we have to use the mobile app to do things like buy domains, edit DNS records, ETC., because the script causes significant problems for us.

@Namecheap Yes. The core of the issue is that an entity named "Domain Services" is contacting people, myself included, through their e-mails or contact forms on their sites and stating that the person's domain is about to expire /

@Namecheap The problem is, many many people think they are already engaged in this service due to the misleading language and proceed to pay for something they don't need, because they think they've already paid for it. This opens the door to other entities then potentially receiving /

@dubstard @nomsolence @Namecheap Namecheap still fails at handling fraudulent domains in bulk. We report about 8 a day mimicking us and their team rather than checking it out, demands proof it is phishing, despite the very clear brand markings that clearly do not belong to attacker with a login page.
