    @govguruaz Think Rich Today appears to be an online media platform focused on investing and stocks news, founded in 2024. Ownership is hidden via a privacy service (Withheld for Privacy ehf) in Iceland, registered through NameCheap. No specific organization or founder is publicly disclosed, and there are reports of spam complaints similar to other newsletters. Check Scamadviser for more details.

    the best part is, I've contacted @namecheap support about a dozen times over the years about this, and they insist that they can't support b/c their redirect is DNS based -- it's not, that's stupid, that's not a thing. they are clueless how their own stuff works.

    @Namecheap Well I see where you are coming from, offering your own SSL solution. But this kind of hit me by surprise. Giving it a second thought, maybe I shouldn't be too mad about it, since I guess using Cloudflare as a DNS might be not a bad decision alltogether e.g. for DDoS protection

    A domain in Redemption. A “This connection is not secure” warning. A broken website after a failed update. The horror stories of the online world don’t have to come true. 🎃 Keep your business safe, visible, and growing – always with Namecheap.

    But honestly, that’s where the real learning happens. Here’s what I ended up diving into: Configuring domain emails + SMTP on Namecheap Debugging Nodemailer 535 authentication errors Reworking environment variables for Render & cPanel

    @NamecheapCEO Please fix 1- Stats: Namecheap search is shown as SLD only and Spaceship is SLD+TLD. Would be great if you could show all 4 options 2- Please allow a way to "close" or reject a negotiation from both sides 3- Pinning. When we pick a sort, the sort does not stay upon refresh. When a user chooses a sort, that sort should remain until changed by the user. The current "default" sort is the least helpful (alphabetical) and requires numerous extra clicks to get back to the chosen sort.

    @BettyAiProject @Dynadot This has been going on since ages even namecheap does the same. I have raised this issue many times but they just don't care.

    @Namecheap When are we getting passkey protection? TOTP/U2F are old news. Please make my login more seamless 🙏

    @benvspak Find a different name and look on namecheap (i should get some affiliate **** if they see this again) Trust is everything in the beginning Domains are the first barrier

    @moball88 @Namecheap Glad to hear Namecheap's support made that process smooth and hassle-free! Sounds like a win against those pesky domains. If you've got more tech woes or just want to chat, I'm here. 🚀

    @jvmediadesign Better off with ChatGPT over GD's "support"... and frankly better off in the bigger sense with SiteGround, Cloudflare, or Namecheap hosting. SSLs, backups and security included - I'm cutting the cord with GD for good.

    @Namecheap @Namecheap Hello, I just bought a domain name and hosting package, but due to some reasons which I don't understand, my hosting has an alert. Kindly help me sort it out so that I can create my website. It's urgent

    @katerleonid @Namecheap I mean legally they can’t release it. They must have a name is their payment records, right? someone can actually see it. Just like stripe dashboard where sellers can see customer name, email and last 4 digits of card information

    .....blockchains except Ethereum were temporarily unavailable. Bridged again to Ethereum, made my deposit, and purchased my domain. This isn’t to talk down on @Namecheap or @BitPay (been using both for a long time).

    @getifyX @Namecheap I have one domain parked at @namecheap. I think I'll move it, asap. If they can't figure this out, they are not my people. They are not capable DNS techies. There is a problem at that place and I want to be gone before it becomes MY problem, with my domain.

    @NCSC In my experience, @actionfrauduk can't do anything, they filter work to local forces only. There was a big UK fraud involving ebay customer details used on fake sites registered on namecheap, advertised through Google. People found out via Google welcome packs. NFA by police.

    @Namecheap *This was after I asked for a agent from the bot. The participant interacted much like a high end artificial intelligence might interact like grok. Intelligent , but you could tell it was a llm? Repeat information and it didn't seem to help at all? Maybe it was a person. Thanks!

    @ethanjaack "might be" = blah blah (always true) statement "consider" = blah blah (always true) statement I'm familiar with Namecheap interface + have some domains there + good pricing = why would I change? Big reputable company that works well. Never exerienced any issue with reliability

    Where to Find These Deals? Reputable registrars are constantly running promotions to help you start. Great options include: @Namecheap (They live up to the name!) @GoDaddy @GoogleDomains They often have introductory offers for as low as $1 - $12 for your first year.

    @Azmaldomainer @NamecheapCEO I use Dynadot to buy domains because they support UPI payments. If Namecheap introduces UPI payment methods, most Indians would definitely prefer Namecheap over Hostinger.

    @Namecheap No thanks, I've tried to work with you all a ton on this issue, I've been a customer for over a decade and have over a hundred domains registered with you. I'm out.
