  • yasirabbas135 Yaser Abbass (@yasirabbas135) reported

    @shirish_arya16 I prefer Namecheap for their customer service and straightforward pricing. What has your experience been with these platforms?

  • evil_cleopatra evil cleopatra (@evil_cleopatra) reported

    @shirish_arya16 i use namecheap, their prices are fair and the interface is clean. never had any issues with them.

  • MCCJasonX Jason (@MCCJasonX) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap has never let me down! GoDaddy experience was painful having to auth for every dns change… maybe that setting can be turned off though.

  • isamirDM Ibrahim Samir (@isamirDM) reported

    @shirish_arya16 NEVER NEVER NEVER Namecheap. They always try to scam you, deceive you, increas prices, etc.. the support is good recently, but it wasn't a year ago and before.

  • CranQnow CRANQ (@CranQnow) reported

    @sonofalli Oof, as long as they're doing it on NameCheap there isn't an issue imo

  • JLow1943 James Lowry (@JLow1943) reported

    NameCheap hosting is the most expensive host on the internet. They charge for everything and screw every customer. Let's do a lawsuit against them for all their false ads. Any takers?

    @brycent_ @defiprince_ help @namecheap

  • saidutt_46 glitchVerse (@saidutt_46) reported

    @shirish_arya16 I usually go with Namecheap or Spaceship. Also built a Rust CLI tool to bulk-check domain availability: [domain-check]. Saves me from clicking through UIs — terminal does the work. Runs down 100-500 domains in less than a couple of seconds.

  • AndreaM82600498 Mr. Nobady (@AndreaM82600498) reported

    @GoPulsecom @Namecheap Guys your platform Is something serious or your hosting Is for free? 4 days down Is not possible for a serious project

  • xprienceLab Xprience Lab (@xprienceLab) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap… but it seems like they have some security issues My website with them was hacked one time

  • Cherelynn Cherelynn (@Cherelynn) reported

    @Namecheap Do you have a phone number for tech assistance? I've been through 5 chat bots and have not been able to resolve the issue.

  • via_myisrael Oluwafemi Israel Ayobami (@via_myisrael) reported

    @hiayoola Well I don't panic as I know it either one or some new plugin I have added that would have caused issues Recently I added a plugin to help cache and the website was scattered I removed and it was fine so any such I issues I even sort it with hosting @Namecheap team attimes

  • marouane_souda Marouane Souda (@marouane_souda) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap. Been for years. Never disappointed.

  • Kcz2025 DTexHexIV 🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@Kcz2025) reported

    @GoPulsecom @Namecheap When are you going to fix the stake portfolio visibility issue?

  • MCCJasonX Jason (@MCCJasonX) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap has never let me down! GoDaddy experience was painful having to auth for every dns change… maybe that setting can be turned off though.

  • Bradydigital Brady (@Bradydigital) reported

    @shirish_arya16 I switched from Google Domains over to Namecheap when Google killed their domain service

  • zverhu Susid Zverhu (@zverhu) reported

    @shirish_arya16 I always used Namecheap until it became impossible to pay with tokens, because the terrible BitPay asks for a passport. Spaceship is the same. I don't understand why they use BitPay.

  • based64_eth based64.ron (@based64_eth) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Remember when Namecheap OTP service was down and everyone was locked out of their accounts for like a year

  • Aaronontheweb Aaron Stannard (@Aaronontheweb) reported

    @_neonsunset consolidating all of my domain names onto NameCheap is one of those to-do list tasks I've had for years - never important enough to penetrate the top of the list. But now that I'm going to have to fork over $30 each maybe it's time to get moving on it

  • uzakyolkaptani Cemal (@uzakyolkaptani) reported

    @Namecheap I do not think so. Many times contacted with your support:(

  • Mo7sn_ مُحسنٌ (@Mo7sn_) reported

    @Namecheap No help founded

  • OrucovaLeylaa Leyla Orucova (@OrucovaLeylaa) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap all the way — clean UI, solid support, and no sneaky upsells.

  • high_ultimate Root === 🇦🇲🇦🇷🇪🇸🇨🇭 (@high_ultimate) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap was great, but then i couldn’t recover an old account, had terrible customer service, so now only squarespace.

  • gdbuildsgd Goksu (@gdbuildsgd) reported

    @thesecara i'd die for namecheap, but was not satisfied with their customer support recently. also gonna need cloudflare storage for this one, so the switch makes sense.

  • PaulineWeb0 Pauline Web (@PaulineWeb0) reported

    @jpmonette @genjoeyai Namecheap took my client website down twice 🤦

  • chriscanal chriscanal (@chriscanal) reported

    @Aaronontheweb I recently moved 5 domains from them to namecheap, it was a ******* nightmare. Everything kept failing and **** all timely notifications when they did. came with a business i bought, I wouldn't use them otherwise

  • cyber_zara Zarathustra (@cyber_zara) reported

    @fritz1707 thanks, was a loyal customer to godaddy but will maybe try namecheap this time

  • greekdubliner ⭕️ Lefteris (@greekdubliner) reported

    @shirish_arya16 Namecheap. World class support

  • 1shosial shosial (@1shosial) reported from City of Austin, Texas

    @shirish_arya16 We’ve leaned toward Namecheap lately—clean UI, decent support, no upsell madness. What about you? Anyone using Spaceship?

  • BaconMoney420 BaconMoney420 (@BaconMoney420) reported

    @AmiCable__C @GoPulsecom @Namecheap Looks like never.
