  • arealesramirez Andres Reales (@arealesramirez) reported

    @Goddessmara6 @TheJackForge I personally use bluehost. Here's is a basic idea of what you can do is: 1. Buy a domain (godaddy, namecheap, etc) 2. Buy a WordPress plan with bluehost. 3. Follow all the instructions. If you have doubts, ask bluehost customer support. 4. Once it is set up, login to your .

  • AngeZanetti Xavier Coiffard (@AngeZanetti) reported

    @writecodeordie I agree NameCheap sucks. Do you think you would pay to such a service? Like $9 to get a list of free relevant domain names?

  • SimpleCove SimpleCove (@SimpleCove) reported

    @Namecheap @deronsizemore Lol by not extending this to existing customers it makes them go to other services to be the new customer to get a discount. @deronsizemore don't forget cloudflare sells domains at cost. Give them a try.

  • MikalJakubal Mikal, but with a k. (@MikalJakubal) reported

    After 4 days, the scammer site was still up and I hadn't heard anything, so I DM'd them here and repeated the info. They replied that it was being investigated. I woke up to an email from Namecheap that the scam site had been taken down. 💪

  • abuse_ch abuse.ch (@abuse_ch) reported

    @Namecheap @DonPasci "it requries some time"? As said, we have already informed you about this abuse problem more than a week ago. Nothing happened. I'm sorry but your statement "it may take up to 72 hours" is just BS....

  • DProjects02 DevSideProjects02 (@DProjects02) reported

    Starting SEO work on club website, and using branching for different features. Personal site still down though, need to ask namecheap about settings

  • pavithrarayudu1 pavithrarayudu@gmail.com (@pavithrarayudu1) reported

    @Namecheap Hello @Namecheap I am a damn new customer to namecheap, just 2 days ago i have created my account, also bought a plan. Fine till yesterday, now @Namecheap says account has been suspended for somthing and to verify upload my credit card image (front side), that too in 24hrs

  • holyshtjoe {:ok, "Joel Jucá"} (@holyshtjoe) reported from Horizonte, Ceará

    @Namecheap but I’m not sure how to do it (my account is still blocked). I’m definitely not using the old one from @bancointer - their support service is terrible and I’m ending my relationship with them because of this fckn mess. I’ll proceed with another card, from another service.

  • holyshtjoe {:ok, "Joel Jucá"} (@holyshtjoe) reported from Fortaleza, Ceará

    which CC they were talking about. Soon later, I noticed that @bancointer blocked my CC and there were a refund from Namecheap. I contacted the bank but their support is fckn terrible and I got no clue of WTF happened (btw I’m at the process of closing my account with them). +

  • webdotcom Web.com (@webdotcom) reported

    @medic642 @Namecheap We do apologize we are looking into the issue as reported however we would still appreciate a full email header for analysis.

  • InYourmind033 Mr Perfect.x ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@InYourmind033) reported

    Wat is it mean ? I m just a domain investor . @Namecheap *The purpose of the registration for the domain name in question * The evidence of legitimate use of the service (can be any paperwork confirming the legitimacy of online business,certificate of company registration,etc

  • K_Karlis Karlis Kivlenieks (@K_Karlis) reported

    @Namecheap P.S. No frustration, this would be just too good to get them for so low price. However, sent the info to your support as well, so they can check what is the problem.

  • thecongjen # 𝙲𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝙹𝚎𝚗 黄琮政 (@thecongjen) reported

    @Jeffrey04 @Namecheap opps... damn they increase pricing 3 times in a year.

  • DavidVorick David Vorick (@DavidVorick) reported

    This is a huge issue, because unlike with Namecheap and our hosting providers, there aren't alternatives to Chrome. If we switch from Namecheap to Gandi, our users won't know and won't care. If we switch from IONOS to OVH, our users won't know and won't care.

  • jnazario dr soldier unfortunable (@jnazario) reported

    @JeremyBlueHouse @Namecheap check out @GreyNoiseIO and their RIOT service to decorate your logs. you can eliminate false positives in a flash like this - ignore benign scanners etc.

  • galtay Gurkan ALTAY (@galtay) reported

    @Namecheap That was someone else's problem, not mine. He's probably looking for fraud. Thank you for your interest.

  • jnazario dr soldier unfortunable (@jnazario) reported

    @JeremyBlueHouse @Namecheap @GreyNoiseIO Most of them publish their CIDRs so you can block them, and most also have a contact page to opt out if you have a stable network address. But way more fun to expose your honeypots and see what comes in, and use that for security info etc. recall I used to work for a scanner co

  • iamladykel I am Lady Kel (@iamladykel) reported

    @Namecheap good evening I purchased my turbo WordPress hosting plan last night but when I go onto the hosting list it's saying I don't have any hosting service yet?

  • ravryy (@ravryy) reported

    @jaytookstock If it’s namecheap just contact their support I had the same issue and they fixed it

  • spitf1r3 Mieszko Ślusarczyk (@spitf1r3) reported

    @Namecheap @yournameisvalid How about you just fix it?

  • hbflyte Heather (@hbflyte) reported

    I switched to EasyWP at @Namecheap to have more WordPress options but less backend hassle. Now I'm sitting here in tears waiting for support to reply and wanting to just cancel everything. I should't have to upgrade to get ANOTHER SSL certificate when I already have one. ****!

  • holyshtjoe {:ok, "Joel Jucá"} (@holyshtjoe) reported from Fortaleza, Ceará

    I am having a really bad experience with @Namecheap right now :( The toughest part? I’m at the hospital, OOO/AFK, and i just can’t do much to address this storm properly. 😟 I’ll tell you the story. +

  • EMDiscussions EmailDiscussions (@EMDiscussions) reported

    @Karstenhowes @wordsmythical I would suggest that you reconsider a move to Namecheap. If you do a search on the @EMDiscussions forum you won't find many positive reviews for their service, especially if you're moving from a niche service like Tuffmail.

  • tiffany Tiffany Bridge (@tiffany) reported

    @nathandwsn Oh hey, are you having the same problem I am with Namecheap where you update the name servers and it just... never propagates? Inability to use the domain just adds fuel to the cash bonfire.

  • blksalaryman He Dreams in Japanese (he/him) (@blksalaryman) reported

    @Namecheap How do I talk to a human being on the sales team about acquiring a domain name for a nonprofit organization? Your ticket submission process sucks….

  • PstPaulFaith Pst Paul Faith (@PstPaulFaith) reported

    @Namecheap why is your livechat support no longer working. Your support ticket is wack, having been waiting for over 15hrs yet no response and my site on your server is down

  • daleethompson Dale Thompson (@daleethompson) reported

    @ArthurAtkinson0 Gave up on them years ago because their customer service was horrible. Went with Namecheap for domains/hosting/email and EasyWP for Wordpress

  • ArthurAtkinson0 Arthur Atkinson 🇨🇦 🏳️‍🌈 (@ArthurAtkinson0) reported

    @daleethompson I have some business with namecheap, they work for me. I found their support actually effective.

  • HeartlandLiberl HeartlandLiberal (@HeartlandLiberl) reported

    @ResusCGMedia The website lacks an SSL certificate. You should get one. It is pretty much expected. For my personal blogs on my personal web server, I use Namecheap SSL certs. In fact, I have till end of month to renew mine. Good support.
