josh (@xcopydotexe) reported@uwunetes i know godaddy is a scam but why is namecheap bad?
-
Tommy Williams ๐บ๐ฆ (@twwilliams) reported@EleanorKonik I'm really not sure which provider is the most trustworthy these days. I keep my most valuable domains on Network Solutions, but I have no idea if that's a good idea. I do know that I pay a lot more than at Namecheap, where I have most of the others.

Hackology (@Hackology) reported@Namecheap VPS CP is now responsive, even that was not loading rest even namecheap site appears to off ... VPS etc all down , even the IP associated with it
-
Resolver Vicky | Dev ๐ง (@resolvervicky) reportedCloudflare Registrar sells domains at cost and they make zero profit on domain registration. It's a loss leader to get you on their platform. That's why the renewal price never spikes. Namecheap's first-year discount is a customer acquisition trick; the real price is the renewal. Agree?
-
Christine Harrington (@savvysaleslady) reportedMy domain was shut down by @GoDaddy on May 10th. No idea why & the domain was paid up for a year back in Feb. 2026. Iโve called twice a day trying to get this resolved with GoDaddy. Absolutely a waste of my time. I moved the domain today to @Namecheap but GoDaddy is now taking 5-7 days to initiate the transfer. Iโve reached out to @GoDaddyHelp numerous times with no response. Can you imagine providing such poor service?
-
David O. Ehibor (@grayontop_) reported@AlfinCodes Namecheap altho I had a bad experience with them and it took time to get resolved. Cloudfare is a better option.

Michael Knight (@michaelmknight) reported@cPanel Hi, I upgraded from ImunifyAV+ to Imunify360. Iโm now being asked for a license key. I wasnโt provided one and I canโt find a key anywhere in your Client Area and under Orders/Licenses. Your support states to contact Namecheap and is sending me around in circles, but it's nothing to do with them as I purchased the upgrade from you and I can't send a support ticket. Any help would be appreciated.

exitLife (@imsmokingloud) reported@not_puppycat ugh no idea i just bought the domain from namecheap.. do u know how i can fix it ;-;

... (@irucsbo) reported.@Namecheap stole my funds and refuses to provide a real solution or proper support. Extremely disappointing experience with a company I trusted for years. Criminal organization. Avoid at all costs.
-
โด (@irucsbo) reported@Namecheap Why don't I got access to my funds for over 3 months? Why is @Namecheap support ignoring me?

Rajib Mondal (@rajibmondal_) reported@jacksimone78 Yeah Namecheap I host with DigitalOcean Droplets, it's support is good and also it seems cost effective

Kshitij Vijayvergiya (@kvijay98) reported@pcshipp I recently bought a .in domain from Namecheap and it was much cheaper than GoDaddy. Cloudfare doesnโt support the registration of .in extension yet.

LND (@y1vl3vy) reported@the_smart_ape Tbh I have nothing to do with it. There are no clear alternatives for gmail. Every other email registrar could fall as well so no point into thinking that switching from google is gonna save you for sure. Namecheap can go down, microsoft as well and every other ******* email registrar.
-
... (@irucsbo) reported@namecheapceo123 I used Namebase (owned by @Namecheap) to manage my funds. Three months ago, you sold the platform without notifying your clients. Since Namecheap sold the platform, I have lost access to my funds, and this issue has now been ongoing for more than three months.

Borden Hachez (@HarrowingTimes) reported@BenjaminHouy That's normal, United Domains is one of the worst companies out there. Always use @Porkbun or maybe namecheap. If you have issues with United Domains you can also use reclabox and publicly complain about them, United Domains don't like public shaming and they will insta fix it
-
Ehsan (@acadictive) reported@BacLeodiv i always buy from namecheap. i like their ui and service. btw, lets also connect.
-
Eric (@realfunnyeric) reported@Dynadot @Namecheap Eh. Gotta be a better way. Everyone trying to hang on to their customers. Taking them hostage. Maybe Iโll build a tool that does it. ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
-
Tommy Thomas (@0xTommyThomas) reported@adahstwt Iโve been using Namecheap for a while now, generally good integrations with other apps which make it easy to use. Pork bun is pretty decent too Will never understand why godaddy is called godaddy lol Squarespace in my experience is the most annoying to deal with for domain management tbh
-
Aaron (@aarons_takes) reported@MustaAras I think it comes down to normie's perceptions of Namecheap/Spaceship registrars vs GoDaddy. Very much IMHO.
-
Spaceship (@spaceship) reported@Atifel_ We take accusations of front-running very seriously, and we want to assure you with 100% certainty that Spaceship never registers domain names based on customer search queries. The domains you provided are registry premium and not registered with Spaceship or Namecheap. Because the registry determines the base cost for these premium names, the higher price applies to both the initial registration and the annual renewals.
