  • HarunRRayhan Harun R. (@HarunRRayhan) reported

    @Shpigford @Namecheap Namecheap became expensive. I want to move all my domains as well. Let's see which service everyone else picks.

  • LightNoLimit Lite (@LightNoLimit) reported

    @JulianEngel13 @Shpigford @Namecheap Isn’t Spaceship owned by the same CEO as Namecheap (which he’s having problems with)?

  • trevorgehman Trevor Gehman (@trevorgehman) reported

    @Shpigford @Namecheap I do like CF but two things: 1. UI is a little clumsy managing hundreds of domains 2. They don’t support certain tlds I like Dynadot

  • ignacioaal Iggy (@ignacioaal) reported

    @Shpigford @Namecheap i'm starting to migrate to cloudflare but since that's not their main business i don't think they support most TLD's

  • firtozb Firtina Ozbalikci (@firtozb) reported

    @ignacioaal @Shpigford @Namecheap They added support for a bunch more of them relatively recently

    Even The Flash isn’t as fast as @Namecheap support!

  • JulianEngel13 Julian Engel (@JulianEngel13) reported

    @Shpigford @Namecheap Spaceship (though they are a new company by Spaceship - but their support is outstanding) or Dynadot. Love CF but not for domains, and do not, under any circumstances go to GD.

  • kazzkiq Claudio (@kazzkiq) reported

    @Shpigford @Namecheap Had the same issue. They pretend they can sell you the premium domain, then throw you in a limbo and just ignore you. I got lucky and solved the issue by finding that the domain was in auction by a competitor, then purchased it directly there. Feels almost like fraud tbh

  • hykenow ¡build website 👨‍💻(Ikechukwu) (@hykenow) reported

    @_Hybreed_ @Namecheap Thank you for the Like. I really wish I can be one of your technical support Engineer. A1 level, Intern anyone I don't mind. I have 3 years experience in worpress technical support and PHP.

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @Shpigford @Namecheap Hey Josh, sorry to hear about the trouble. Please do let me know the details and happy to help with a solution asap. My dm's are open for you.

  • NicolasDorier Nicolas Dorier (@NicolasDorier) reported

    @peterktodd @BtcpayServer @Namecheap I see two issues: 1. Proving to the payer that he is actually paying Namecheap. 2. Resolving a dispute if the payment is intercepted (because one party is compromised). (1) isn’t theoretically solvable; in practice there are "good enough" mitigations, like opening the same invoice on two different PCs and confirming the address matches. Realistically, I don’t expect customers to do that. (nor do I expect them to verify a signature on two computer for that matter) (2) is more tractable and only requires action if something goes wrong. I guess sending an email the payment address with a signature would be enough. Even if the payer doesn't check it, they both can pull the email later to see where did the compromise came from.

  • MexicanGreek UFO.XYZ (@MexicanGreek) reported

    They responding with the below. I have checked the issue further. As a valued customer and in appreciation of your business with Namecheap, I will make an exception and provide a one-year renewal for your domain name. Exception?? It is what I was charged and paid for.
