  @Namecheap I have been a very loyal customer for 15+ years and all of a sudden you decide to not let me register domains and put BANNED on everything. You just lost me

  masqueraider (@masqueraider) reported 12 minutes ago

  @GoDaddyHelp I’m canceling everything and moving to namecheap unless you solve my email problems for no extra cost. I am a 20+ year customer and you are treating me like dog ****.

  @CertainLogicAI @buildwithmaya @Namecheap Agreed for the validation phase — cheapest thing that ships wins. Where a geo-TLD earns its keep is after you've got signal and want the URL itself doing some work (local SEO, word-of-mouth memorability) instead of just hosting code.

  @adahstwt I think namecheap is best but their renewal cost is not same that is the issue

  @robintel And also IONOS was abysmal for setting up DNS stuff (this is partly on Google/Firebase though), never had this issue with namecheap DNS

  never search domains on godaddy. they very obviously resell this info. better use cloudflare or namecheap or porkbun.

  Mike (@ibuildcoolshit) reported 31 minutes ago

  @kapilansh_twt Namecheap customer for 20+ years just left them for cloudflare

• 
  SYL Vexora- Jaron K Bragg (@JaronBragg) reported 32 minutes ago

  @its_sidraa Why not skip namecheap and just use cloudflare for both domain and DNS? Cloudflare actually puts my website on the map. Namecheap I never seen it and was hard for others to surface. Other than that it makes sense.

  @cammygoltd @Namecheap If you have already submitted a ticket to our Abuse Team, please patiently wait for their review and response as our Support Team cannot assist with this type of request. We apologize we could not be of further assistance in this matter. Kind Regards,

  @13_narcissus tbh they're all over the place currently. Some are at Hostinger, some at namecheap, some at other German legacy service providers... need to consolidate but low prio

  Adam Holter (@AdamHoltererer) reported 39 minutes ago

  @gauravsapkotanp Definitely not Namecheap, because @theo said they were bad and scammy.

  I am the owner of Azure subscription and tenant. After moving my verified domain from GoDaddy to NameCheap, I am now completely locked out of this subscription and tenant. I cannot log in or access any resources. I no longer need this subscription or any of its resources (already replaced) . I would like to permanently cancel and delete the entire subscription (including all associated resources, databases, Key Vaults, etc.) to close this account cleanly. @AzureSupport

  @the_smart_ape Tbh I have nothing to do with it. There are no clear alternatives for gmail. Every other email registrar could fall as well so no point into thinking that switching from google is gonna save you for sure. Namecheap can go down, microsoft as well and every other ******* email registrar.

  Shant (@ShantDotMe) reported 46 minutes ago

  Hey @Namecheap are we trying to outdo @bluehost as worse customer service?! It has been a month and a week since I opened a security issue ticket with them (and still no reply), but your livechat isn't doing any better atm.

  After using @Namecheap's service for well over a decade, they've decided to raise my rates. I'm pretty disappointed. Are there any other good hosting providers that are low cost? I've already tried GoDaddy and their service was trash.

  @novitekka @Namecheap same issue

  Sean Coker (@okcoker) reported 49 minutes ago

  I later found out, you can no longer even register this TLD on the Namecheap website because they have sunsetted them according to customer "support" 3/

  TheRealPomax (@TheRealPomax) reported 52 minutes ago

  @Namecheap The part where I type a postal code, and just because there's a space (which your JS should be able to verify is irrelevant) the form goes "FIX THIS VALUE IT IS WRONG" when in fact no, it is not: validate _after_ removing semantically irrelevant characters.

  @Namecheap Never once have you reached out to me properly to verify my claims you know how to find my contact information. I’ve already told you where it is not affiliated with that garbage. Please reach out and rectify the problem. I don’t want to call the police department again😡😡😡

  @TTrimoreau Porkbun if u want clean interface. Namecheap for bundles. Never godaddy, thats 2010 behavior.

  We have escalated this matter to senior @namecheap support and are awaiting a workaround and resolution. Please stand by!

  If you want to build a startup that actually has users: Claude = coding. (more like $100+) Supabase = backend. ($25-599/mo once you cross free tier) Vercel = deploying. ($20-150+/mo once you get real traffic) Namecheap = domain. ($12/yr, ok this one's real) Stripe = payments. (2.9% + 30¢/transaction) GitHub = version control. (free) Resend = emails. (free until 3k emails, then $20/mo+) Clerk = auth. (free until 10k MAU, then $25/mo+) Cloudflare = DNS. (free, genuinely) PostHog = analytics. (free until you cross the free tier) Sentry = error tracking. (free until errors pile up) Upstash = Redis. (free until real traffic) Pinecone = vector DB. ($70/mo minimum) Total monthly cost to run a startup with actual users: $300-1000+ "$21/mo" is the cost to run a demo nobody uses.

  @tomilola_ng Namecheap sucks though 😭 Namecheap VPS is just Hostinger in a different coat. Low initial cost, ridiculous renewal prices as well, and a predatory domain expiration pipeline that funnels your forgotten domains straight to their marketplace auctions.

  @jacksimone78 Yeah Namecheap I host with DigitalOcean Droplets, it's support is good and also it seems cost effective
