    @ace_rbk @sir_krymx I use Google Authenticator. Funny thing is it can’t be recovered. And now I’m just contacting customer services to get assistance. Been able to sort out Heroku and Namecheap. Got a couple more to go through.

  • BowTiedPatriot BowTiedPatriArt (@BowTiedPatriot) reported

    @Namecheap I believe we're all set actually! They figured out it was never attached to someone else as they previously thought. Now I have to wait 24-48hrs to edit DNS settings. Will reach back out if I have any other issues. THANKS!

    @Namecheap Hi Namecheap, we have identified a lot of scammer sites - please check the ticket #UWJ-678-66316 and shut them down ! Cheers

  • MekoFox Meko (@MekoFox) reported

    @Thumperbun What email delivery problem? Because I have Comcast and use Namecheap's Private Email service for a personal domain and I haven't had any issues.

  • BarawaniKid Ay.Be 🇸🇴 (@BarawaniKid) reported

    Damn wish I knew I was paying a lot for domain renewals on godaddy. Just transferred all mine to namecheap for the cheap cheap.

  • piofthings Pi of things (@piofthings) reported

    @bcrypt @Namecheap Usually @Namecheap support is pretty good... get on it folks!

  • YrBFFAnna derby grandma (@YrBFFAnna) reported

    need help with Namecheap domain stuff: long story short, my domain(s) expired. All but one is available to buy. The one that's not available, they claim is in some kind of purgatory where it's not released yet. But the whois says it's registered to them for another year. help?

  • FarasAlshaikhly Faras Al-Shaikhly فراس الشيخلي (@FarasAlshaikhly) reported

    @Namecheap hello, is the server down by any chance as I can’t reach to my email inbox. Many thanks

  • Zacinquarantine 🇪🇹 Zachinquarantine ⟠ (@Zacinquarantine) reported

    @Namecheap the fact that the domain is literally "quickbooks customer support" doesn't tip you off?

  • cryptovoicee Cryptovoice (@cryptovoicee) reported

    @Namecheap You guys are hosting many crypto scam websites, I have been reporting them for the past 6 months and you have not taken down any of them, this is why they love your servers because they can get away with it.

  • TigerSteve DadaHank (@TigerSteve) reported

    @Namecheap has anyone used this service ? It is virtually impossible to receive any meaningful support and to cancel your current subscription! Feels like a bait-and-switch operation??

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @GoreJason91 @ContaboCom @Spam404 Web-content was taken down from the domains that are registered with Namecheap: blinktechservices[.]com and supernetconcierge[.]com. Please report bravetechservices[.]com to the relevant providers if necessary.

  • iKlsR ˎˊ˗ (@iKlsR) reported

    @Namecheap Contacted live support twice now and still no update on my ticket, unable to access my account - JWR-225-40084.

  • AquarianTruths GavchaPatil (@AquarianTruths) reported

    From GoDaddy to Namecheap to IONOS(still some websites here) to Nestify to Dreamhost to Hostinger … 🥲🥲🥲 So many options… But a Good Hosting not wanting to loot you and providing decent customer care except IONOS maybe …

  • SunilDe Sunil De (@SunilDe) reported

    @GoDaddyHelp ... and a full working week later, the DM messages still don't appear to have been read. @Namecheap - considering the experience I've had with your support, you could pitch on that alone with "competitors" like this. I'm not sure @GoDaddy would survive.

    @ArifRusho @Namecheap Only do it if you trust him/her. Any illegal content or spamming can be problem for you. Best of luck.

  • YrBFFAnna derby grandma (@YrBFFAnna) reported

    need help with Namecheap domain stuff: long story short, my domain(s) expired. All but one is available to buy. The one that's not available is "pendingDelete" and "serverhold", but the whois says it's registered to them for another year. what does this mean?

  • VMuntianov Vadim Muntianov (@VMuntianov) reported

    @linuz90 @Namecheap Hey! Sorry, this got you upset. The button is included in marketing emails. Like a renewal letter, this was a service one to you as a Private Email user about the new tool we've rolled out. I promise we send such updates rarely and only about new cool stuff we did for you guys.

  • djjester DJ Jester (@djjester) reported

    So I have a domain at @Namecheap and they implemented some sort of verification code system recently. The email my account is on is linked to the domain I wanted to log in and redirect b/c the server it went to no longer functions. Their support wouldn't help me.

  • namesilo NameSilo (@namesilo) reported

    @RazoesSergio @Namecheap We cannot speak to other registrars' practices but we see quite a few fake reports trying to take down competitor sites. Thus, we require evidence of the abuse. We do also run proactive checks but aren't always able to replicate the abuse, which is why we require filed reports.

  • iClls_official iClls (@iClls_official) reported

    @Namecheap #DesertIslandHack You can always decide to make more money, but you cannot choose to make more time. Time is your most valuable asset, and until you choose to treat it with value, it will continue to be worthless.

  • OlusegunGreene Olusegun Michael (@OlusegunGreene) reported

    @Namecheap why do I literally have to wait for hours to get a reply for my ticket.#AMR-858-62682 Even when you know the business rely so much on this service. It's really poor.

  • namesilo NameSilo (@namesilo) reported

    @RazoesSergio @Namecheap We require evidence of the abuse in order to take down reported domains. We cannot simply take reports at face value as there are often fake or inaccurate reports filed with us. We take down thousands of domains daily that violate our TOS but only with evidence of the abuse.
