    @KytorIndustries @Namecheap That's too bad! I use namecheap and have normally been pretty happy with their service/support. Maybe I should start backing up my DBs more often though 😬

  • IndraVahan Indra (@IndraVahan) reported

    @HathwayBrdband still not able to open @Namecheap on your network. All other Indian ISPs have unblocked Namecheap but you still have a ban placed on it. Kindly rectify.

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap recovery code for it but anyway… I guess you guys charged me for vpn, I wasn’t able to get the email, and now it’s “unfixable”. KHA-653-54041 is the support number, but I look at this as losing $35 to not have to do business with a sneaky company.

  • DavidDailo David Dailo (@DavidDailo) reported

    @kyetbedford @KevHinh Don't use GoDaddy, they are shady and the worst (you can Google reddit reviews). I'd use Google Domains, NameCheap or PorkBun.

  • GetPayroll GetPayroll (@GetPayroll) reported

    @Namecheap We requested you to take down a fake website in Feb but still no action while people are getting scammed. What is the update on Ticket ID: WQQ-647-26875 Subject: Fake Website using GetPayroll Information Department: Fraud / Phishing

  • BeegyPsi Beegy (@BeegyPsi) reported

    @Namecheap Well, hopefully for you guys, I'm the only customer you'll lose over this.

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap I appreciate that you guys do a good job, but I’m just going to close it all down and either move my domains or let them expire. Thank you for your time.

  • BrettDawson42 Brett Dawson (@BrettDawson42) reported

    @Namecheap your security systems are not working. I can't access my account. The rest password route is not sending an email. I can't raise a ticket because this process requires a pin, which requires access to my account.

  • amamr_1989ali rejoice (@amamr_1989ali) reported

    @GetPayroll @Namecheap I had similar issues I was scammed out of my life savings thoughts all hope was lost but thank God a friend referred me to @E_PROTECT101 on Twitter here who got our refund from the scammers

  • georgica7785 This is my art. (@georgica7785) reported

    @NamecheapCEO I would be happy to help you better understand the addiction treatment industry w/respect to domain names, and perhaps help Namecheap could be less of a #tool of industry exploiters than it currently seems to be. Seriously... not a good look. Shall we discuss here?

  • samanthadee93 Samantha Denton (@samanthadee93) reported

    @TheJoin95 @Namecheap The problem is that I couldn't find another "trusted" vendor for a .to domain. First and last time with namecheap

    @Namecheap Hi, I need help reporting a fraudulent website hosted on Namecheap

  • Iam_Profken Ken (@Iam_Profken) reported

    @Namecheap I don't have any domain use for any illegal activities under my care and I will never entertain such... I wonder why your company is stressing me to provide documents of domain under my care which I have done and my case is yet to be resolved...

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    Namecheap is by far the worst domain provider on the internet. Most are ****** and scammy and try to charge you for things you don’t need but Namecheap will just charge you for things you never ordered. And their support is not good… not worth the headache. What’s a good one?

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap That’s what I mean. I never bought the VpN and never used it. I never ordered it. I never thought about your vpn service until one day I was charged for a year of it. Again, it’s fine, I’d just rather not keep an account where this could accidentally happen. 🫡

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap Hey! You guys must have had some fine print or something with regards to a vpn trial because I have 2FA on my account and never bought a vpn service from you but I just got charged for a year of it. I also lost access to one of my email addresses somehow even though I have the

  • tim_jrobertson Timothy Robertson (@tim_jrobertson) reported

    @Namecheap Spoke to 4 different agents and submitted 3 support tickets this morning to recover my account and no one has gotten back to me! Any reason??? Please help.

  • lazycherrat Redouan @lazych (@lazycherrat) reported

    @Namecheap auth is terrible..

  • aa419 Artists Against 419 (@aa419) reported

    @Namecheap So are you saying that the US has now become a sanctuary for spammers? So who is the administrator/tech support of /bestcopytool.com and /ai-hustle.com? Just going on your own advice which you now contradict yourself on.

  • georgica7785 This is my art. (@georgica7785) reported

    @Namecheap refuses to transfer in a domain, refuses to cite WHY except calling it "prohibited".. like pulling teeth getting support to say WHO says what is "prohibited", or why. Is @namecheap a #woke operator exercising bias behind the scenes? Or just ignorant? Incredible.

  • KytorIndustries KytorIndustries (@KytorIndustries) reported

    The Kytor website and emails are currently down. My hosting provider @Namecheap found an "unoptimized" database and chose the nuclear option instead of just reaching out to me. I am trying to get this resolved while I'm on vacation, no ETA at the moment. Standby.

  • rahulkaulvakil Kashmiri Heathen (@rahulkaulvakil) reported

    Note for all webmasters: Never check domain availability on @Namecheap. If you search for a specific domain repeatedly over weeks, they will reserve it and put a premium on it. User privacy is a joke.
