    Im using supabase for my app and trying to user a smtp server to send otp emails to login I can’t make it work Bought a domain and mailbox on namecheap Free plan on serverSMTP connected all togheter If I use my email from namecheap doesn’t work I’m crying

  • GOWTHAMSREE3620 Ragnar Lothbrok (@GOWTHAMSREE3620) reported

    Hey @Namecheap, I’m facing a serious billing issue. Multiple charges were deducted for Orders #187500264 and #187501981, but the order is still not getting confirmed. Only one refund shows up while money was deducted multiple times + an extra $1 charge. I’ve emailed billing.fix.

  • reubgold Reuben (@reubgold) reported

    @glosseantics Holy **** I gotta do that. The first time I failed to link up a namecheap domain of my own to cloudflare pages, and couldn't diagnose the problem, but I should try again

  • binhuaorg Bin Hua (@binhuaorg) reported

    @Namecheap You canceled my domain registration without any notification. This alone is reason enough for me to never use your services again, even though I’ve been a customer for over ten years. Good luck.

    @Namecheap Thanks but the name is in auction with 7 bidders. Too late. The issue is in general with the business arrangement between houses and partners. A partner must not be allowed to retract a domain once an auction ends with bids. That clause is conveniently missing from the contract.

    @Namecheap @Lordomainer Are you guys using Sav for customer support Asking for a friend

  • sidehustleopps DomainNames.vc (@sidehustleopps) reported

    @Namecheap If this is true, it's extremely unethical business to allow a domain to go all the way through an auction, have a winning bid & then cancel it the day afterwards. Please make the step from "sorry for any possible inconveniences" to change your policies so it doesn't happen again.

    @aravind @IndianCERT @GoI_MeitY If the crime is established, gov can track them down as there are regulations for VPN servers in India to collect logs and store for a certain period. I remember cause one of the VPNs I was using was banned a couple of years ago. Even Namecheap was banned once.
