@EurograntUK @TonyNames I once had an issue with @Namecheap. A day after expiration date, I tried to transfer and they denied, support said I needed to renew it first in order to transfer away.

@myblogtech @DomainGuyUK @Namecheap I have all the records of all .wallet SLDs owned, and nobody will be time-penalized for Gateway's outage. We're just waiting to deploy on our new home. It would be preferable to use a non-centralized stewardship solution, so that you own it without relying on a website to stay up

@DomainGuyUK My first 55 web3 domains were bought via Gateway. CEO of Namecheap promised to "extract" them and get them into everyones' Namecheap/Namebase account. That has still never happened. Where are all those domain names exactly? Come on Richard! Plz! @NamecheapCEO

Namecheap support goes on: Please note that, unlike your current service, only one cPanel account can be hosted with the Shared plans. Thus, please let us know the corresponding domain name and cPanel username that should be transferred in case of a downgrade.

Can't believe my site just went down. Oh well. All I can do is wait for namecheap to figure it out.

I dont expect you forward this to your CEO or even to a support manager, but your support is frustration to say it at least. @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO @NamecheapPR

@DavidGewirtz @GoDaddy I left them and went to @Namecheap. No issues so far - and lower fees.

@MattIPv4 @Namecheap Ooh we had this, and actually got charged for it even though we'd migrated to a new registrar that also charged us! Took a message to support for them to delete it and give the money back. Really not good they don't seem to be able to properly keep track of them though

@Namecheap I need some help here. Your DNS is adding an erroneous A-record to my domain and sending website visitors to the wrong server. I submitted a ticket with screenshots (ticket: #MYM-516-19423), but have no response so far, and your live chat is turned off.

@craftnames @Dynadot @Namecheap When you use the card via Dynadot it rings up as Computer Programming and Design Service only 1X When used via Paypal it codes as Computer Networking and Information Services "Internet" for Chase Ink cards.

Most other things being equal, one huge reason I choose to spend more at Godaddy is that they have their merchant code properly setup as an internet service and i get 5x points from Chase. @Dynadot @Namecheap please look into!

Namecheap support: Please accept our apologies in misunderstanding in previous reply. We have not mentioned that you have Complete management with your VPS. Since, we do not need a root password from you.

@craftnames @Dynadot @Namecheap The merchant code is a fixed code based on type of service a business primarily provides. Most internet related charges fall into "Computer, Networking, and Information Services". This gets you chase max points, others are "Computer Programming and Design Service" this is 1X

@quant_arb The same thing recently happened to me when buying a domain through Google domains. I needed it, so I had to bite the bullet and fork out $4k for it vs the $30 it was initially. I have used namecheap since and haven't had the same issue.
