    @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.

    @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?

    @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.

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

    @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 .

    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

    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.

    @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.

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

    @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.

    @500mk500 Hello! Thank you for your report. Per our check, the domain name keshodiwa[.]com is currently pointing to the Namecheap parking page; thus, no fraudulent content can be currently detected. Please check it from your side and let us know in case the issue reappears.

    aaaaaa was looking at domains on namecheap only to find that they're doing blainchock crap now, so I looked on porkbun instead ...only to find that they're doing it too. are there any decent registrars out there that support obscure TLDs like .sh but aren't ethically compromised?

    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. +

    @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

    @david38665516 @PumpETH_Token @Aaron674150 But hey they gave me a dollar worth of ETH As compensation. We are filing a fraud report with their abuse department at Namecheap to get their domain name shut down we also are filing a formal complaint with Twitter and coinmarketcap to get them banned.

    @JimBrowning11 @Namecheap Namecheap are a real problem, nearly every scam site I checked is from namecheap. They need shutting down as a company as they do little I see other than protecting scammers.

  • 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). +

    @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.

    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....

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

  • 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. 💪

    @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….

    @paullewismoney @Consumer_gripes Namecheap shut down a domain immediately when reported - someone is listening. Just not those you expect.

  • HelenSente
    Helen Sente (@HelenSente) reported

    @Namecheap @JimBrowning11 I know, but the domains are mainly still running because idiots on your end dont see a problem most times, there is no human intervention therefore no context of why the domain is being reported thus scam domains remain trading ;)
