  Chris Winfield - Understanding A.I. (@chriswinfield) reported 27 seconds ago

  @Namecheap I have been a very loyal customer for 15+ years and all of a sudden you decide to not let me register domains and put BANNED on everything. You just lost me

• 
  The Trunk Tales (@TheTrunkTales) reported 2 minutes ago

  @Namecheap So, you are not going to take action against the domain simply because it removed the subdomain? The root domain is the threat, and it continues to create subdomains with this content. This is not an isolated issue.

  @MacdevM Mostly comes down to control and pricing for me Cloudflare and Namecheap usually stand out for clean management and no unnecessary upsells 🚀

  .@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.

  @Namecheap that security ticket is with bluehost, not you (thankfully). But 3.5hrs on chat to ID an IP is way too much. and that came after they reviewed the info I provided?? 🤯 I could easily rate this as the worse experience I had with your service!

  @Hexangelo5 You are right about that! Pulsechain,com is registered through there, as are lots of other pulsechain project websites. While Namecheap built its brand on privacy advocacy (e.g., fighting for customer data protection in courts), control now sits largely with a Luxembourg-based PE giant whose incentives are financial returns, not ideological privacy maximalism. The registrant data required by ICANN lives in a system where EU corporate oversight meets US legal demands. In an era of rising data breaches, surveillance, and regulatory flux, relying on any large registrar under PE ownership means trusting opaque boardroom decisions with your identity footprint. Diversifying to independent or privacy-first alternatives reduces single points of failure.

  @tomilola_ng @timithechef I’ve used hostinger way back in 19/20, Dreamhost VPS 22/23. I stuck with namecheap for their customer support. It’s the best & cheapest.

  Unverified conspiracy theory: GoDaddy holds all these inactive domains through a shell company so they can charge finders fees and commission to “find” the owner of the domain, themselves Namecheap would never stoop to such loser levels

  Adam Holter (@AdamHoltererer) reported 32 minutes ago

  @gauravsapkotanp Definitely not Namecheap, because @theo said they were bad and scammy.

• 
  4L.com (@4Ldotcom) reported 37 minutes ago

  Note: The domain was using Afternic nameservers and showed the Afternic landing page, so the lead did not come from the domain landing page. The sale was completed through Spaceship, which means the buyer likely came from the Spaceship or Namecheap network/marketplace.

  @baxiabhishek @Namecheap Name cheap is just that ! Cheap !! I’ve had a similar experience a year ago, and I never went back to them. Buy domains elsewhere and pay a wee bit more for peace of mind

  Christine Harrington (@savvysaleslady) reported 50 minutes ago

  My domain was shut down by @GoDaddy on May 10th. No idea why & the domain was paid up for a year back in Feb. 2026. I’ve 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. I’ve reached out to @GoDaddyHelp numerous times with no response. Can you imagine providing such poor service?

  @Namecheap I just wanted to let you guys know that I’ve contacted my local law-enforcement to stop some websites that you’re hosting from scamming any further. I’ve asked repeatedly fake the domain down and you refuse now I’m pursuing legal action.😡😡😡😡

  @Namecheap What did you find? based on the hundreds of domains it creates weekly on your service.

  Worst experience with @GoDaddy support compared to other top domain registrars like @Namecheap and @Cloudflare. Reported serious fraud-related domains with evidence, but still no effective response or visible action on my complaints. Case IDs: DCU101299924 & DCU101300141.

  @Dynadot @Namecheap Eh. Gotta be a better way. Everyone trying to hang on to their customers. Taking them hostage. Maybe I’ll build a tool that does it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
