    @CheapLightning @ProtonMail @Namecheap Huh, Namecheap has an email service? Didn't know that. Looking at pricing, seems neat. How's the privacy with it?

  • ON8CB ᴄᴏᴍᴇ ꜱᴇ ꜰᴏꜱꜱᴇ ᴀɴᴛᴀɴɪ (ʙᴀꜱ) (@ON8CB) reported

    @malwrhunterteam I have to admit that in the past I had bad experiences with NameCheap but since they changed the way to handle reports they are now prompt and responsive. Let’s give credit where credit's due.

  • po6ot4 Parth Patel (@po6ot4) reported

    @ionos_com @ionos_help_US I have paid $36 to them and he was telling that Invoice never generated from our end and you will not gonna get any refund from our end. If this is not scam or what? I would recommend to use @Namecheap for better client services.

  • SeaCatBiz SeaCat 🌊🐱 (@SeaCatBiz) reported

    @amandanat @Namecheap It's not aversion but most of the onboarding animations are boring or too long (I saw several good ones though). I just always prefer to understand the UI on my own. If I can't I leave the service because it means the UI is too complicated or just not well done.

  • PacMaori PacMaori (@PacMaori) reported

    @Namecheap I did, I've been trying for 1h to no avail. That's why I'm posting here. I add you answer here to the excellent service I always get from namecheap, understanding VISA systems are painful to use for everybody including the namecheap, stripe, and the issuer.

  • malwrhunterteam MalwareHunterTeam (@malwrhunterteam) reported

    @brian_psu @_darrenmartyn @Namecheap Taking down now isn't that much useful, but I will make sure they take it down. Next time if they wouldn't take down stuff in acceptable time frame, let us know in time.

  • aww_tism אהיה אשר אהיה (@aww_tism) reported

    @CheapLightning @Namecheap What happened? I've never had to deal with their support

  • FundraiserDan Dan Hanley (@FundraiserDan) reported

    @DebraISchafer @Namecheap Thanks Debra. This is awful!

  • buckissettez11 Francis Varghese (@buckissettez11) reported

    @sifathossain999 @Namecheap I also experienced this, i contacted support service and they didn’t do anything about but @Trane12 on Twitter helped me get regain access to my account✅

  • CheapLightning C. L. (@CheapLightning) reported

    @Namecheap @MrKorrupto @ProtonMail I am quite sad now though. I was given an impossible coupon and now that I WANT to give you money chat support does not seem to want to help me out here...

  • adiciorba Adi (@adiciorba) reported

    @Namecheap Guys my sites are down for more than 2 hours now, suddenly not available. I speak with support but seems I need to wait for migration to complete..nothing can be done. Very bad for business, I have many domains and trusted your services, but this is very bad.

  • foxyhorrorgames Foxy Horror Gaming 🦊 (@foxyhorrorgames) reported

    "Unable to proceed for Payment Sorry, we encountered an error while processing your request. Please try again. " uh wtf @Namecheap

  • FundraiserDan Dan Hanley (@FundraiserDan) reported

    Is anyone with @Namecheap private mail having a login issue? I have no access to my Altrui email. Have no idea. Sent ticket. On live chat and they are no help. Any ideas? Thank you!

  • SeaCatBiz SeaCat 🌊🐱 (@SeaCatBiz) reported

    @amandanat That which: - doesn't require filling up 30 fields - doesn't ask questions - doesn't spam me - doesn't require watching all its onboarding animation - has a clear UI - has great free support. So far, only maybe @Namecheap met all the requirements...

  • yooast yoast 🏳️‍🌈 (@yooast) reported

    @EthaanJack 100% agree mate, unfortunately for me, sometimes a domain that I'm after is listed on the godaddy auctions. So that doesnt leave me with a chance to acquire it elsewhere. Totally recommend @Namecheap . Their support is phenomenal.

  • Dillon_Pentz Dillon Pentz (@Dillon_Pentz) reported

    @WizardCM @CrazyDomains @Namecheap Namecheap doesn't support the .co.nz or .nz TLDs unfortunately.

  • secc_mo mo (@secc_mo) reported

    @Namecheap They make a check, if the b64 string is not an emailadress, you will get redirected to the microsoft article on wikipedia, rude :P here a valid link that will lead you to the phishing page:

  • chris223332 kings (@chris223332) reported

  • BlazeFyre Blaze Fyre (@BlazeFyre) reported

    @SmilesofSally @Namecheap I use Namecheap for all of my domains. Not sure what you are looking to do, but if you want it to redirect I can help with that.

  • ronnie35967255 ronnie (@ronnie35967255) reported

    @jfslowik @campuscodi Absolutely! 180 degrees! @Namecheap has been very helpful in taking down malware recently

  • CheapLightning C. L. (@CheapLightning) reported

    @aww_tism @Namecheap Terrible wait times. Complete lack of interest in keeping a customer or gaining new business. But hey they offered 10 cents off......

  • chtmorris Charlie Morris (@chtmorris) reported

    @Namecheap @hillank @NamecheapCEO Richard - your company is hosting a site that is defrauding investors by using the CMCC Global brand. Can someone please respond to our support ticket: XSR-793-88257? We have been waiting 3 weeks. Thank you

  • lovecommssydney lovecommunications (@lovecommssydney) reported

    @Namecheap your checkout system is broken and it has just cost me an extra $40 to register a domain name and lose a years' registration. Is this deliberate revenue raising?

  • iamhtml frz (@iamhtml) reported

  • CheapLightning C. L. (@CheapLightning) reported

    @Namecheap Hold up guys. The @namecheap support person I am talking to right now is REALLY bad. This is giving me real second thoughts.

  • SmilesofSally Sally Smiles ★ Fansly (@SmilesofSally) reported
