    @prbhtkumr @Namecheap @snigdhasur Went through the Snigdha Sur case, it looks like there is some legality issue with their domain being used in India. Will read more to understand before making any judgement. Ps - I use namecheap for my website domain and it has worked great for me.

    @Namecheap #namecheap lost thousands of dollars today due to bad business. They refused to refund a purchase they made a mistake on. This violates a sacred covenant between business & customer. They are unethical and have forgotten what it means to appreciate a customer.#ethics

    I've been a Namecheap customer for at least a decade... They're okay... But their VPS services are terrible. They run them on outdated architecture and the resources are very minimal. Better to go Hostinger for VPS.

    Joe Moore (@aafc795) reported

    @cybernaira I had HostGator (the one I mentioned earlier with the Blue and Yellow colors) and Namecheap 9 years ago, and HG's follow up is excellent. They sent me emails to make sure everything was in order and if I needed any help. The dumb thing is, I never did anything with the Website.

    Christina Panina (@ChristinaPanin1) reported

    @justdevopsguy @Namecheap Hi! Christina, Private Email Product Manager here. Can you provide more details on where you observe the issue? We'll investigate with the team, as this is not how the service is supposed to work.

    @Namecheap Hello Namecheap Support, I am writing to follow up on my suspended account. I have already submitted the requested information and documentation. Could you please provide an update on the review status? I urgently need my account access restored so I can continue my work and meet an approaching deadline. Thank you for your prompt assistance.

  • AISaaSLaunchpad
    AI SaaS Launchpad (@AISaaSLaunchpad) reported

    @arvidkahl @Namecheap DENIC (.de registry) handles transfers differently than gTLDs—it requires real-time authcode validation via a direct registry connection, which Namecheap's backend integration doesn't support for inbound moves. The workaround is transferring to a registry with direct DENIC support (like Porkbun or Hetzner) and pointing DNS to Namecheap.

    @vivekteega @Namecheap @snigdhasur hey i'm glad that it has worked for you, i doubt most people using such a well known service for standard domain holding would have much issues. but namecheap has made a life long hater out of me and i would do my best to divert any and all business to better alternatives.
