@Namecheap Ok this bit of UI is crappy. Editing the card doesn’t show the option to make a card usable for renewing. I have to click another option hidden in the drop down

@licieux I’ve always bought my domains from Namecheap and never had a problem. I haven’t used their hosting services so I can’t vouch for that, though.

Hey @Namecheap when are you going to add proper support for LetsEncrypt certs? It's a pain to have to manually update them through WordPress

@Namecheap And why should I need to do this at all? I have only one card and it’s the default. Seriously, please fix this. Don’t just apologise for the frustration and do nothing about it.

@vysecurity @Namecheap We treat all attackers as genuine until proven otherwise. Which means if it is a clone of a company website serving malicious docs for example, any and all available means of taking that down will be used including DMCA takedown. Sometimes this will burn a legitimate op.

@Laurie_Garrett GoDaddy is actually one of the worst companies. Do not be fooled Laurie. Namecheap is the better solution. Don't be fooled for one second by them.

@Namecheap Hi, the issue is in the screenshot, Fake antivirus scam. There's nothing more to it. I thought you did act on Twitter now? cc @malwrhunterteam @APT_Namecheap

@Vortex_Egg Please help me! I got stuck and procrastinated for two years just because I couldn't figure out by myself how to install the mediawiki template on my Namecheap domains. I had two domains one for the English version one for the Arabic translation of a report I did in 2018

@vysecurity @Namecheap From my observations they have started taking down phishing sites when discovered. Even done a few for me when I reported via twitter, with screenshot and link. Which to me is a great effort from previously.

@Namecheap It appears after I made this tweet, the scammers took their abusive content down, I will create a new ticket and dm the ID once I see this abusive content again. Thanks for the reply

@vysecurity @Namecheap SOC’s response task of taking down phish site is also part of RT assessment?

@Namecheap Unfortunately no. I will not be wasting my time with support again. I'll be switching to @ProtonMail, who I know is reliable, and trustworthy.

@mmpadellan FUN FACT: You can switch all your domain names from @GoDaddy to @Namecheap and save a considerable amount of money. You’ll also get better service and not be censored or subject to cancellation. I did it a year ago with one call.

@KailiaSage You don’t have to switch if it’s working for you! But if you do feel like you’d like something different, let me know. I’d be happy to help you even if you don’t want namecheap (I’m not an affiliate with them or anything).

Question for my domain buddies, is namecheap better than godaddy? I've heard a lot of awful things about the latter.

@Namecheap Hi Namecheap, have you fixed this bug yet? Just wondering three years later if your dynamic DNS service is still functionally useless as it was before I left.

@SayonaraMarina1 @catturd2 And you can transfer any domain name to any other registrar like let’s say.. namecheap. They don’t own ****.

@Namecheap - someone has broken into your privateemail servers, again. Last time I figured it was somehow my bad (admittedly) password for SMTP, but today I see it's happening again, even with a 84+ char random password. Not only that, but it's not coming from the web panel

@Namecheap I will give FTP another try but that was just as slow as downloading it via Chrome.

@Namecheap On August 7th I contacted your abuse dept about a compromised site hosting a fake Office 365 login page. This resulted in ticked # UQH-617-35819. Almost 1 month later the site is still up and the ticket is still waiting for an answer. Please take the website down.

@pepesgrandma @Namecheap @GoDaddy This is exactly how it should work. If Godaddy wants to be woke they can turn to ****. If you have a website move to a new domain hosting service.

What’s up with @Namecheap shutting down domains under legal and abuse? But there’s not even an explanation as to what the accusations are?

@Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Filed a report. Problem is, this will go fast unless domain will be prevented from redirecting. Hope you are there to help prevent theft.

@jgarzik @Namecheap @EasyWP It's a fantastic platform. The only downfall is terrible performance for ecom. If you get hit w traffic spikes it's no bueno, and general UX is slow. Makes Shopify vs WooCom decision for BTC merch irritating.
