Zara_Schneider (@ZSchneider76107) reported@MacdevM Mostly comes down to control and pricing for me Cloudflare and Namecheap usually stand out for clean management and no unnecessary upsells π

Abu Fatimah.Dev (@Hameed_360) reported@Namecheap has never failed me
-
Matthias Reinholz (@MattReinholz) reportedInteresting side-fact: they say the issue was about DNSSEC. However, in contrast to .com, @Namecheap doesn't let me configure DNSSEC for .de domains (not because of the current issue but generally). @grok does DENIC use a different layer/method of DNSSEC that doesn't allow configuring it on the registry level?
-
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.

Shant (@ShantDotMe) reportedMe: 19:05:35 Hey Namecheap odd IP address access NC: 20:06:15 IP address provided earlier does not belong to our service NC: 20:27:17 Yes, the IP address does not belong to our company.

Priyangu Patel (@patelpriyangu) reported@PratikSinhatwt Namecheap I use which is the best in pricing and support.

Jack Robert (@neutronmesh) reported@chrisjfranko @Namecheap Seriously, I pick today to change MX records and this thing has been down for hours.

... (@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.
-
Greg Lynch (@g_tone_) reported@Arfness @1grid_hosting Just been through the drama of moving client domains away from NameCheap (in protest of their pro-Zionist BS). I need to find a home for novelty TLDs that Xneelo doesn't support. Can you recommend anything?

Ken π§ (@thekenndubisi) reportedHow to setup an online business doing $1k a day revenue in 30 days: Step 1: Register a business and get a biz bank account. If youβre in Canada, use Ownr. If youβre incorporating in the US, use LegalZoom or Bizee. Step 2: Setup a business email address with Namecheap, connect it to Gmail and sort out tax registration (GST/HST in Canada, EIN for the US) 3: Choose your niche, build your one person offer and price it for an easy yes. A rough example: βI help local gym owners get 10-20 new member leads using meta ads in 30 days or less for $500 a monthβ 4. Setup your ad account and launch your one-person ad. Rough example: βAttention Toronto gym owners, are your ads getting clicks but no members? Most gym ads fail because of xyz. I help gym owners get x qualified signups using this. Click to watch this 3 minute video showing how it worksβ 5. Send the traffic to a landing page with the VSL that has these 3 components: a headline mirroring the ad, a short video speaking about the problem, and a link to book a call. 6. Get on a call and ask these 4 questions: whereβs your business right now? What have you tried so far? If we solved this like this, what would that look like for you? Hereβs how weβll solve this bottle neckβ¦.β and then present your offer. Itβs not easy but it is simple; donβt over complicate it. Do this and get to $1k a day within 30 days. You want my help setting this up? Send a DM.

Mr. Niba (@Nousername_ah) reportedIβve usually had very good experiences with @Namecheap and their customer service but today I have been on with a live agent for more than 30 mins and they canβt resolve my issue after wasting my time they are now transferring me to a different department. SMH

Saud Ilyas (@saud_ilyas) reportedFor the first time in 10 years, I moved the .io domain out of Namecheap to save $25 on renewal lol; never thought of moving any of the 2k+ domains I've managed with Namecheap for years. 3x the price is unjustifiable. Could potentially save up to $10k a year by moving every single one to Cloudflare on renewal. But thatβs a very big headache doing one by one, so iβll pass for now!

O.G Obinna (@Obinna_Gates) reported@tomilola_ng @timithechef Iβve used hostinger way back in 19/20, Dreamhost VPS 22/23. I stuck with namecheap for their customer support. Itβs the best & cheapest.
-
The Trunk Tales (@TheTrunkTales) reported@RealTripleA I know exactly what happened. I cc'd the "host" and they took it down to prevent Namecheap from seeing it. Won't give them the heads up next time.
