Gr1zZ (@Gr1zZtv) reported@Onepeg No one should reach out to them, they request your id to verify your the owner to take down content, you should go to their registarar which I beleive is namecheap and file a DMCA with them

Qirisiti Returns (@QirisitiReturns) reportedThis is the issue. i hope i don't sound entitled. On @Namecheap I had a domain that was expiring in a day, and stellar hosting had already expired. so i added domain renewal and hosting renewal yearly subscription, plus helping services to my cart and paid 45 USD thread..

Georgii Tselkovskii (@Existentios) reportedIt has never been cheaper to build a startup. Claude for coding — $20/mo Supabase for backend — free Vercel for deploys — free Namecheap for domain — $20/yr Stripe for payments — % only GitHub for version control — free Resend for emails — free Clerk for auth — free Cloudflare for DNS — free PostHog for analytics — free Sentry for error tracking — free Upstash for Redis — free Pinecone for vector DB — free You can literally launch with ~$20/month. The hard part is no longer building. The hard part is getting people to care.

CAPED CRUSADER🦇 (@stilleclectic) reported@matthansbello Sigh, everything was originally done on namecheap but I’ve now just moved the dns to cloudflare. Waiting to see if that fixes the issue
-
Michael Knight (@michaelmknight) reported@cPanel Hi, I upgraded from ImunifyAV+ to Imunify360. I’m now being asked for a license key. I wasn’t provided one and I can’t find a key anywhere in your Client Area and under Orders/Licenses. Your support states to contact Namecheap and is sending me around in circles, but it's nothing to do with them as I purchased the upgrade from you and I can't send a support ticket. Any help would be appreciated.

Zara_Schneider (@ZSchneider76107) reported@MacdevM Mostly comes down to control and pricing for me Cloudflare and Namecheap usually stand out for clean management and no unnecessary upsells 🚀

nicolasexc (@nicolasexcc) reportedI'm a Global Admin locked out of my M365 tenant due to MFA with no recovery methods. Error 500121. I own the domain (registered in Namecheap) and can verify via DNS. Need urgent help resetting MFA. @MicrosoftHelps
-
Adam Maysonet (@synozeer) reported@TopShelfNames @spaceship If someone typed in the domain in their browser bar, they would have seen an Afternic lander. The person instead searched for the domain on Namecheap/Spaceship and bought it that way (aka. reg path), so they may never have even seen the lander.

K S (@kj_kjato) reported@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.😡😡

Sergio (@sergionoodle) reported@FrancescoCiull4 How is Namecheap nowadays? I dropped them a while back as prices went up and quality down.
-
Dr. Simon Taki Zaku, D.B.A (@realsimonzaku_) reportedWhat tools do I need to start? You usually need a domain, hosting, professional website, clear service pages, founder profile, testimonials, analytics, business email, payment route, content plan, and strong WhatsApp or contact funnel. Tools like Namecheap, DreamHost, Hostinger, Geegpay, ClickMeeting, and CartFlows can support the system when used with a clear strategy.

Formerly Exit 2 🏴 ☮️ (@SchraderValves) reported@YourHornedGod I used to use Namecheap, never had a problem. Don't know if they are still good
