  • CSBastiat CS Bastiat ⚖️ (@CSBastiat) reported

    Hosting a website with @Namecheap @EasyWP. Their service went down 2 hrs ago and my website stopped working, unbeknownst to me. Had to wait for a client to tell me. Did they email customers? No. Did they tweet about it? No. Tired of these lazy-*** companies not communicating.

  • 0xDPJ Daksh P. Jain (@0xDPJ) reported

    @Namecheap Not a bad deal 👀

  • TheAryaHQ Arya Patel (@TheAryaHQ) reported

    @ilovecoding_in Real, also Namecheap is not bad.

  • CSBastiat CS Bastiat ⚖️ (@CSBastiat) reported

    @VZaretskaya @Namecheap @EasyWP You didn't email your customers. You didn't post about the outage on your X account. You did zero communication. Now it's been 5 hours and you still haven't offered any details and no ETA. As a customer, I am very very disappointed.

    @genjoeyai namecheap for 99% of my domains bought over 200 domains in the last 3 years and their bulk pricing is unmatched godaddy tries to upsell you on everything, namecheap keeps it simple plus their customer service actually responds when you need help

  • OkunadeGoodMan GoodMan™ (@OkunadeGoodMan) reported

    The support team at Namecheap and Automattic are very dependable. Even if na midnight, dem go respond.

  • cristianuibar Cristian Uibar (@cristianuibar) reported

    @genjoeyai @Cloudflare for domains, yet it doesn't support all TLDs. For these special TLDs I'll go for @Namecheap

  • its_ilya Ilya - イリア (@its_ilya) reported

    @genjoeyai Namecheap is my goto Cloudflare just works Never tried the rest of them tbh

  • coolaj86 coolaj86 👨‍💻 (Old Man Yelling at The Cloud™) (@coolaj86) reported

    @Namecheap And yes, in one hidden menu there's a checkbox for auto-renew - which contradicts every other indication in the UI is that it's already enabled. And I never unchecked it in the first place. My assumption is that sometime when I updated my expiration date it became unchecked.

  • bittsbutcher にくやさん (@bittsbutcher) reported

    @Namecheap has gotta be one of the worst domain providers in existence

  • araff_m Malik Araf (@araff_m) reported

    Had a domain on namecheap. Had to redirect it to netlify. Was having issues. Asked chatgpt and it provided sorta wrong answer. But eventually fixed it. Willprovide the update tomorrow.

  • fritzjackhunt jackfritz' (@fritzjackhunt) reported

    @genjoeyai Namecheap, their customer support is the best I’ve ever used 💯

  • CSBastiat CS Bastiat ⚖️ (@CSBastiat) reported

    @Namecheap @arth61585 You guys couldn’t even bother to send an email letting us know our sites have been down for the last hour??

  • dhiraj184 Dhiraj Soni (@dhiraj184) reported

    @genjoeyai namecheap but its ****

  • danielmlozano Daniel M. Lozano (@danielmlozano) reported

    @genjoeyai Are people still buying domains from GoDaddy? They have terrible practices (such as buying domains that you searched for and then selling them as premium domains), higher prices, etc. Namecheap is the way to go.

  • talktoai Shaf Brady (@talktoai) reported

    @Namecheap Provide a code to renew the domain at the same price as cloudflare or cheaper?? can you provide me a code or you want me to move to cf lol like your supposed to try keep me as customer, please try harder?

  • coolaj86 coolaj86 👨‍💻 (Old Man Yelling at The Cloud™) (@coolaj86) reported

    @Namecheap It's obviously both buggy and bad design. You don't need to argue with me about it, the screenshots are there. They're not doctored (other than masking ids), that's your web ui. Ask anyone you want. This isn't some weird take I have to personally defend.

  • coolaj86 coolaj86 👨‍💻 (Old Man Yelling at The Cloud™) (@coolaj86) reported

    @Namecheap 1. If something has "auto-renew" on, but can't be renewed, it should indicate it and where to fix it. 2. Rather than displaying "card: active", "card: default", "auto-renew: enabled", "card: will be used for renewals", it SHOULD NOT say those things if they ARE NOT TRUE!

  • Govind_vash02 Govind Vashishat (@Govind_vash02) reported

    @genjoeyai Godaddy is the worst, namecheap is much better

  • coolaj86 coolaj86 👨‍💻 (Old Man Yelling at The Cloud™) (@coolaj86) reported

    @Namecheap Not just the auto-renewal flow, but also not getting a notification for the error or email about the expiration. Don't send marketing emails for problems. Subject should be: "Billing error renewing domain" not marketing lingo "It's time to renew", and sent 1m, 1w, 1d, 0d, -1d

  • Ibrahim_Khan099 Ibrahim Khan (@Ibrahim_Khan099) reported

    @genjoeyai Namecheap, their support team in unbelievable.

  • TheRealJoseph01 Joseph Williams⚡️ (@TheRealJoseph01) reported

    Namecheap has one of the best customer support services

  • GiftVincy Vincy | FormApe (@GiftVincy) reported

    @nieactually Used Namecheap for years never had a single issue even with bulk transfers

  • coolaj86 coolaj86 👨‍💻 (Old Man Yelling at The Cloud™) (@coolaj86) reported

    @Namecheap Except that the notification system didn't work that way. Those messages weren't sent. And your interface did show that my card was enabled for renewal. You have a conflict / bug in your system which is showing things that are not true, and is not reporting on errors.

  • etherbalance ChaosElephant (@etherbalance) reported

    @Namecheap It does what it says on the tin; just try to make a transaction with any crypto via @BitPay. I already brought this up multiple times with NameCheap support in the past. BTCPay doesn't have this issue, so KYC isn't needed in your payment process, but I loathe using BTC.

  • Kha_Erl M.P❄️ (@Kha_Erl) reported

    @webdesignerng While we’re all at it, is there any cheap or Nigerian domain service provider that comes with free auto ssl ? I’m tired of having to do it manually most times on namecheap.

  • heftysammich HeftySammich (Dave) (@heftysammich) reported

    @genjoeyai Never GoDaddy Always namecheap

  • prtwari praveen tiwari (@prtwari) reported

    @genjoeyai - Name's UI is terrible. Its a pain to manage DNS. - Godaddy's account sharing is a pain. Managing on behalf of someone else sucks here. - Squarespace has no APIs etc. I'd by via namecheap or gandi and manage on cloudflare. Keep my nameservers on cloudflare.
