@jeremyphoward @Namecheap Just be thankful that you aren't with the blackmailers at SpamHaus. Very bad guys. They knocked my hobbyist website off the internet for 6 weeks and I managed to get it restored by the domain registry. SpamHaus says it's a spam domain solely on the basis that it's a .top.

@Namecheap ok I’ve been with you for all my business and each family member at top tier for over a decade maybe 15 I had enough and started to move everything to SS. Over £17,999 a year may be a drop in the bucket for you but to UK Small business it’s significant. You give emails,you have a menu driven site so as businesses grow they can stick with you smart. Whoever named your company with the word Cheap in is is a moron. How about valuenames? Savvynames? EcoNames? The people who can spend for your top tiers are going to be older more to spend. Make it idiot proof. Add a product £30 extra/ month for 6 months gets you 3 45 minute calls that don’t roll

@investmentdomai Hey, that does sound shady. Domain front-running claims pop up sometimes—mixed reports on Dynadot, with some users reporting similar issues, others not. Double-check via independent WHOIS tools or try registrars like Namecheap. Got the domain name? I can help verify its status.

@jeremyphoward @Namecheap I used to be their customer until I switched to Cloudflare. Namecheap is good until you have to contact support. No matter how big or small the issue is, they're useless.

@Namecheap Namecheap Support telling a blind customer of 10 YEARS ( Multiple domains and extras) to “read the FAQ” instead of helping me is shameful. When locked out and won’t send me a verification link I don’t need links — I need my account unlocked. Business-critical domains are being held hostage. Fix this. #Accessibility #disabilitydiscrimination

@Namecheap I don't think you understand any of my concerns because you seem to not have read my complaint. The email address I use to renew my company's has never changed since 2012. For Namecheap, a criminal who hacked a Namecheap account becomes the probable owner of this last...

@Namecheap After 18 YEARS as a loyal customer with 40 domains, you’ve locked me out of my own main account. Your “verification codes” never arrive, your support sends me links I can’t read (I’m blind), and now my business-critical domains are being held hostage. Shameful. Fix this NOW.

The problem: Cold email domains getting flagged because registrars like GoDaddy and NameCheap expose your domain identity. Most people pay premium prices for DNS management and still get terrible deliverability. Cloudflare changes everything.

@AfolayanPromise @Tspiceskitchen Can it be used to renew your domain name on namecheap since the previous virtual card you use is not working. I used cardify but their naira to dollar exchange rate is on the high side

@rauchg UI is way cleaner than the others. when i was buying up domains before though one of the reasons i didn’t use vercel was price difference, has this improved recently? i mostly use namecheap and their site is dog ****

i was hunting a domain name for about 3 years.. and it went on redemption/reactivation/pending delete. It was registered with namecheap. I looked in the aftermarket and i couldnt find it. today it started resolving to gname. i was able to get it for $15. does namecheap (or gname) have a relationship or something? im curious why not mark it up higher? i wonder what was the signal that made gname want to register it then to sell it for only $15?
