    @HyperedgeEmbed @Namecheap @DreamHost Hi! It's Christina from the Namecheap team. I'm sorry to hear this issue brought so much distress to you and resulted in such an unpleasant experience with us. I'll work with the support team to avoid such delays in replies and provide you with a better user experience.

  • kmurray24 Ken Murray (@kmurray24) reported

    @Namecheap I was just told by support that users are unable to renew a domain online for multiple years due to a bug in the system. Can you confirm this? Thanks!

  • _dennistan_ Stanley Dennis (@_dennistan_) reported

    Amazon, Uber, namecheap, jumia, konga, Netflix, airline companies etc are all in search for an affiliate to help them boost their sale.. And you can possibly do all these just sitting in your house.. you don't need to apply for the job of a marketer.

    @MohammadZadissa @Namecheap every civilized nations judicial system would already had shut you down if you were unable to provide logfiles or subscriber information for one of your customers who enganged in criminal activity.

  • MohammadZadissa Mo zadissa (@MohammadZadissa) reported

    @skoops @Namecheap Hi @skoops we do value transparency and this how we build products. We do not keep logs, in case of any trouble shooting we ask clients to send us the logs from their device to us as we do not have them to troubleshoot. We do not foresee changing that, respecting customer privacy

  • HyperedgeEmbed HyperEdge Embed (@HyperedgeEmbed) reported

    @Namecheap I don't think that will be necessary. Already considering @DreamHost. I switched to your monthly plan when ur quality of service started dropping. No one should go through "your" pain for a whole year. 3 support tickets, 0 response. ZQF-723-21289 UCI-662-54892 ZUR-536-99258

  • skoops skoops 🪆🧸🤹🏾‍♀️ (@skoops) reported

    @MohammadZadissa @Namecheap not troubleshooting. what do you do if a court of law orders you to surrender connection data for one of your customers. how often do you think law enforcement will allow you to answer "we don't collect logs" before they shut you down?

  • mageca Maria Angelica (@mageca) reported

    @Namecheap a whole hour talking and the girl still doesn't understand what is the problem of double billing because she is completely literal.

  • HyperedgeEmbed HyperEdge Embed (@HyperedgeEmbed) reported

    @Namecheap Your live chat is a waste of time. I have sent mails and contacted you several times over the past two weeks. We've been using your service since 2016, but it has become worse. My major regret is that i recommended your company others.

    @lokesh_bysani @tdinh_me Lots of people use @Namecheap I do. Cheap and great customer support

  • iWilbernight Wilbernight🇳🇴 (@iWilbernight) reported

    @Namecheap A VPN can endanger our privacy as much as it can help to anonymity. You ask how? All you have to do is buy a VPN from a company based in the United States. :)

  • christina_olii Christina Oliinyk (@christina_olii) reported

    @2347066318461 @Namecheap As I see, the server your domain is hosted on was under a minor DDoS attack, which could have affected your website performance. Our tech team did their best to restore normal service in the shortest term.

  • 11rcombs Ridley @ a safe distance (@11rcombs) reported

    @gandibar This might be the worst response to a name change request I've ever seen from any service, including the _financial industry_. And it's not like this is some kind of ICANN bullshit! Namecheap, Google Domains, and Porkbun don't have this problem!

  • MohammadZadissa Mo zadissa (@MohammadZadissa) reported

    @3Plantey2 @Namecheap Indeed if logs are kept that is an issue however we do encourage to read our privacy policy for FastVPN which we clearly state that we do not keep logs of browsing activity and as mentioned above using along with a different browser system for private activity increases privacy
