  @dev_olayinka Im sure you had other cheaper options from the start. You know why you chose Namecheap. I will never use any other hosting server other than namecheap my bro.

  Hey @Namecheap are we trying to outdo @bluehost as worse customer service?! It has been a month and a week since I opened a security issue ticket with them (and still no reply), but your livechat isn't doing any better atm.

  @Namecheap has probably the worst customer support I've ever had to deal with. I've been locked out of my account and haven't gotten a single reply to any of the emails I've sent.

  @EleanorKonik I'm really not sure which provider is the most trustworthy these days. I keep my most valuable domains on Network Solutions, but I have no idea if that's a good idea. I do know that I pay a lot more than at Namecheap, where I have most of the others.

  Namecheap just took my domain down without notifying me. @grok do I need to sue them?

  FYI I won't be able to talk on Matrix for a while, because namecheap seems to be down and doesn't want to update their DNS with my new ip address... I guess I will need to make a server on discord after all

  @milanm_ @levelsio @Cloudflare To add here, since CFs offices are in France, they overcomply with every bs EU request, even if you host a service that is US only. They won't do that for the content part, so namecheap registar + CF dns + CF CDN is actually best of both worlds combo.

  Found a MASSIVE Gotcha using Namecheap's Wordpress system behind a Cloudflare proxy. Editors can't login! Can't seem to fix!

  I didn’t get paid for this. But @Namecheap customer service is one of the best I’ve experienced. Every time I ran into issues, they showed up immediately. That’s what people forget: Your value isn’t what you say. It’s what customers consistently experience.

  @TTrimoreau It really depends on what you're looking for. Price, support, or extra features. I've had good experiences with Namecheap

  @noob_contrarian Hey, for your SBI virtual Visa card: It works on GPay/Stripe but fails on PayPal/Namecheap likely due to SBI's restrictions on debit/virtual cards for those platforms (common RBI/PayPal mismatch on OTP/3D Secure). Quick fixes: - Double-check intl transactions enabled in YONO app. - Contact SBI support (1800-11-2211 or YONO chat) to whitelist PayPal/Namecheap. - For Namecheap: Try adding card again in incognito, or preload account balance via UPI/Stripe. - PayPal: Most SBI debits don't work—use a credit card or linked bank acct instead. If still stuck, reply with exact error msg.

  @namesilo @Namecheap NameSilo dead rate is 60%+ for fresh domains (0-6mo) — domains are born dead. Namecheap fresh domains are 25% dead (normal setup delay). This means NameSilo domains were never intended to be used.

  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.

  @Namecheap Fix your servers!!! 33% packet lost to 8.8.8.8 is unacceptable even for a server in Africa. Your tech support telling me to reboot and change hostname. They clueless. This is a serious production software. Fix your servers and educate your tech support!!!

  @Namecheap I've notified the domain owner of that also. Which is embedded on the link. I'll maybe share as well a detailed report on that, after they fix from their end.

  @RealTripleA I know exactly what happened. I cc'd the "host" and they took it down to prevent Namecheap from seeing it. Won't give them the heads up next time.
