Registrars really are a mixed bag with abuse reports, @Namecheap is often fantastic with acting on phishing reports, @namesilo often aren't too bad either, though could certainly be a little faster. Then you have others, reported one to @spaceship in July and they took no action

Most Nigerian hosting companies aren’t really taking things seriously, with bad customer service, slow ticket responses, and constant downtime. The day @Namecheap starts selling .ng domains... Guess what? Otilo.

@Namecheap @imstoicbtw Same is happening for me, 500 errors or weird pages randomly popping up. Struggled to sign in at start with multiple redirect loops forcing me out of Chrome and onto Edge instead

But here's where it gets crazy: Despite accepting BOTH payments, the registrar allegedly never processed the restoration properly. The domain entered "PendingDelete" status and was pushed to auction on Namecheap.

@iamjasonlevin GoDaddy is such garbage in so many ways I prefer NameCheap, I bought smashingthemes[dot]com through their broker service a few years ago It was like $100 for the inquiry, and if the owner didn’t respond, I’d get my money back It was a good experience. Ended up paying $250

I registered a domain with @Namecheap today. After a freaking user experience, I opened the dev tools. The website is the worst piece of engineering. Nothing is working, there are unwanted redirections, and every request fails with HTTP 500. I am not able to verify my domain. I may have paid a few more bucks and gone with GoDaddy or Hostinger.

@OnboardGlobal @Tspiceskitchen That's how dstv customer care lied they've cancelled padi plan just for me to do yanga plan. Do you charge fee when loading the dollar card, do you charge fee for getting the dollar card. If yes, how much ?. What happens when a platform (like namecheap) regets your card ?

Has anyone transferred a domain from Namecheap to Cloudflare? Did you face any issues after that? I'm planning the move since Cloudflare's at-cost pricing is cheaper for renewal.

@apkmoder We have thoroughly investigated your claim to the extent of our capabilities; however, it is not possible to verify the alleged abusive activity involving the reported service. It is recommended that you address the matter directly to the domain holder or to the local authorities. Additionally, if Namecheap does not provide hosting services for the subject website, the corresponding hosting provider may assist in your inquiry. Thank you for understanding.

**** Namecheap. They sent me an email last month telling me to reissue my SSL, which I did so I wouldn't forget. I got another email today telling me to reissue my SSL, which means despite following their limited guidance word-for-word, it didn't work. Again. Every F'ing year

@TheNFTCPA I've ran a small b2b saas on a namecheap shared hosting, not even VPS because I need cpanel and don't want to manage a server. It has never failed me yet since 2016.

@Namecheap We at @beehiiv have spent ~6 months debugging this for users. When I first reached out to @Namecheap kindly, they told me they didn't do this. I looked further into it, proved they did, and then their support told us something we repeated to our users, which was wrong. Recently we had a vendor of ours ask them if they could make a change to prevent this from happening and they said they wouldn't. So spent an entire day's worth of time building a system to warn our users. Ridiculous.

A Namecheap autorenew didn't kick in last night and one of my sites was down for 7 hours. The email reminders confirm it was set to autorenew, and the manual renewal I did this morning shows it was set to renew. That's a new fear unlocked.

@Spaceship @Namecheap @ICANN My domain was SUSPENDED within minutes of adding a credit card for renewal. I NEVER used any promo. This was my FIRST domain on Spaceship. Offered full $12 payment. They say "final decision" — no proof, no appeal.ICANN complaint filed: 01490666

Namecheap’s (@Namecheap) support has really gone downhill. After around 10 years with them, I’m tired of being “guided” instead of helped. I often have to insist they just install an SSL instead of tutoring me. Thinking of moving out… any good alternatives?

@Namecheap is their a way to synchronise Client Email App spam settings with cpanel spam filters? Cpanel is marking too many legitimate emails as spam & Bluemail says they being flagged before they reach the App & i don't want to login to cpanel & whitelist every other email.

@domainpad @KenLin1985 I never show any stats to any buyer. I care more about exact match domain name search at NameCheap, not keyword search. My product is the domain name, not any keyword within that domain name. Spaceship should split the metric into two metrics to eliminate confounding.

@cloudglides Porkbun is simpler and has more human and overall better support. Although namecheap has support, your stuck in an endless loop of 'im extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused, let me transfer this chat to another agent who will be better suited to deal with your inquiry'.

@Not_Firestine Dude ... do a 1 page site, with your dates and a newsletter sign up. Use your LWC contacts, to give you a couple seconds a show to promote it. Your biggest issue would be email, so you don't get flagged as spam, but I have a brilliant way around it. $80yr hosting @Namecheap

@ethanjaack Thats why I switched to Namecheap. Actually let's you cancel with a click of a button. And I saw that the support of the IONOS account replied and I am not going to respond as I know they are trying to remove the "scam" history in their name

Where to find them? 1) Well, for most of the time, we have had Domain Marketplaces at famous registrars like GoDaddy, NameJet, Namecheap,Dynadot, having Auctions and Drops. Still, the names that you might like here might end up in auction, and people tend to get competitive in Auctions. 2) Backordering a domain is another way to get it, meaning you make a contract with a backordering service that tries to catch the domain as soon as it drops. If multiple people have it in their cart, then you still get into an auction, and as mentioned before, they can get really competitive. 3) Direct Tools - Now that’s where some of the places that deal in listing Expired Domains comes into play and basically what they do is they list thousands of daily Expired domains that get deleted and list it out for you in one place, so you can apply filters yourself and find out the best that you want or like.
