  SYL Vexora- Jaron K Bragg (@JaronBragg) reported 47 seconds ago

  @its_sidraa Why not skip namecheap and just use cloudflare for both domain and DNS? Cloudflare actually puts my website on the map. Namecheap I never seen it and was hard for others to surface. Other than that it makes sense.

  @Anas_founder @manas_builds yeah was the same for me. tried to transfer a .de domain to namecheap once and it didn't work. Namecheap support told me that I should use their new platform which is Spaceship. looks much more modern and stuff

  @cammygoltd @Namecheap If you have already submitted a ticket to our Abuse Team, please patiently wait for their review and response as our Support Team cannot assist with this type of request. We apologize we could not be of further assistance in this matter. Kind Regards,

  @Dynadot @Namecheap Eh. Gotta be a better way. Everyone trying to hang on to their customers. Taking them hostage. Maybe I’ll build a tool that does it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  For the first time in 10 years, I moved the .io domain out of Namecheap to save $25 on renewal lol; never thought of moving any of the 2k+ domains I've managed with Namecheap for years. 3x the price is unjustifiable. Could potentially save up to $10k a year by moving every single one to Cloudflare on renewal. But that’s a very big headache doing one by one, so i’ll pass for now!

  @tomilola_ng Namecheap sucks though 😭 Namecheap VPS is just Hostinger in a different coat. Low initial cost, ridiculous renewal prices as well, and a predatory domain expiration pipeline that funnels your forgotten domains straight to their marketplace auctions.

  Does @Namecheap pay their support team based on the amount of minutes they're in an active chat or what? Every support chat opens with: "Please allow me 10-12 minutes to check" Terrible support

  @Namecheap I have been a very loyal customer for 15+ years and all of a sudden you decide to not let me register domains and put BANNED on everything. You just lost me

  @vivoplt Namecheap is good, but if you want best service after purchase, GoDaddy

  @Namecheap @digitalocean To be clear, I released the IP address as part of winding things down. I just finally noticed it got recycled

  @gauravsapkotanp Definitely not Namecheap, because @theo said they were bad and scammy.

  Goodbye SquareSpace. Finally! I've hated having my wife's site on Squarespace. Some consultant set her up with it and I never had the patience to move it. On Sunday I told Claude Code to copy her site to a free @Cloudflare acount. Then I told Claude's Chrome plugin to figure out how to tell NameCheap where to point the domain. So satisfying.

  @PersonaIData It’s been like $10 for the past 10 years so not terrible but yeah it’s just my custom email domain from namecheap Cloudflare allegedly cheaper so I’m gonna transfer out

  @Namecheap @Namecheap Is this the service we pay for?

  TomorrowsBrands (@SeeBrands) reported 38 minutes ago

  @katerleonid godaddy have a few of my .cns but namecheap i have most on. i like namecheaps backend, and how easy it is to change dns etc.... and on having reseller hosting from them, everything is streamlined. Namecheap also has very good support. not sales people like i found on godaddy.

  @Namecheap Furthermore, I will explode that you’ve never invested anything and immediately replied that claims are unfounded when clearly they are not. You don’t want me to expose you and your bullshit customer service.😡😡

  @its_sidraa I have my mail service block all emails from Namecheap domains. They are spam enablers. Any business sketchy enough to use Namecheap I want no part of.

  @adahstwt I think namecheap is best but their renewal cost is not same that is the issue

  @Namecheap #namecheap lost thousands of dollars today due to bad business. They refused to refund a purchase they made a mistake on. This violates a sacred covenant between business & customer. They are unethical and have forgotten what it means to appreciate a customer.#ethics

  @Namecheap for the love of God, please do train your support agents a bit better. It is NOT OK for your agent to tell users to use an IP address, without a valid SSL certificate, to login!!!
