    is namecheap OK?

    I have used directnic for years recently someone recomended I try namecheap I have transfered 10 domains and bought 10 more new ones. Now I have done it I am getting a little worried. I save about $5.50 a domain which over the year will be a fair bit extra of working money but as I have been with Directnic for years without a problem a new registar is a little worrying I have had some good feedback from other webmasters but I would love more.

    If you have been with namecheap for a while please let me know your experience good/bad

    Thanks

            Pros: cheap, fast, great user interface.
            Cons: No telephone support ever. Transfers from Enom to Namecheap Don't work surprisingly.
            I have about 70 domains there.

                        don't use them, they closed my account without reason and I was not able to contact them for like 2 months, I lost many valuable names together with that account

                            I have almost all of my domains with Namecheap. Never had an issue. I LOVE their interface.

                            Spend you some brain.

                                Thanks everyone for the feedback

                                looks like most webmasters are happy with them so I will transfer more as they start expiring

                                Once again thanks for the input

                                      I've used namecheap for a while now and never had a problem so far. Thats were all my domains are currently at.

                                          NameCheap is pretty damn good. Solid, never had any issues with them. Transfered ALL my domains there last year.

                                                    maddox I have been searching around and I have so far only found good reports on namecheap if you have any urls to saying otherwise I would love to read them. I intend on leaving my top domains with directnic, for now, but so far moving a large amount of my domains to namecheap, looks like a good move.

                                                      I've only been using them for about a year but so far everything is fine, and yes, their interface is fantastic.

                                                        I have most of my domain names with
                                                        namecheap.

                                                        A few that arent with them are with
                                                        godaddy & these are some sites i
                                                        bought that were already there.

                                                        These were bought for additional
                                                        backlink purposes only.

                                                        I have 1 other domain name at some
                                                        other register that was bought through
                                                        here.

                                                        When the 60 day period is up it will be
                                                        transfered to my namecheap account.

                                                        Namecheap is my main register & i've
                                                        been with for almost a year & a 1/2
                                                        now with no issues what so ever.

                                                        Any new domain names i buy from a
                                                        register they are bought at namecheap.

Now I have done it I am getting a little worried. I save about $5.50 a domain which over the year will be a fair bit extra of working money but as I have been with Directnic for years without a problem a new registar is a little worrying I have had some good feedback from other webmasters but I would love more.

                                                          If you have been with namecheap for a while please let me know your experience good/bad

                                                              Namecheap is a reseller and not ICANN accredited. I personally wouldn't deal with such places.

                                                                          The difference between moniker and namecheap so far is that namecheap has grown through positive referrals and word of mouth. Moniker has grown through heavy marketing and (some) spamming.
                                                                          This is not the first time nor the last that they lower themselves to this sort of behavior. We have had to deal with their lowly practices in other threads as well.

                                                                          They seem to have a good enough reputation and yet they still resort to these classless practices.
