Namecheap are fantastic! Second to none!
I created this account just so I could comment on how good namecheap are.
I have 2 accounts with them and multiple domains hosted with them. They really are fantastic. Their customer support and technical support are some of the best I have ever experienced.
I feel that my domains are safe and secure with them and I never have any problems accessing them or being able to edit them.
They offer 24/7 live chat support which is essential, free whois, cheap domains and email hosting as well as many other great products and services.
I have absolutely no hesitation recommending namecheap to anyone.
Keep up the great work guys!

In terms of buying domain name, Namecheap is great as it provides free privacy too.

Definitely. We left Enom for the same reason, and they're following suit of late. We're thinking of finding someone new, even though the service has been pretty decent, since we can't be very competitive on domains unless we call it a loss leader and upsell other related services to cover the costs. It would be a major pain to move them all at this point, but when the costs per name start hitting a ~$2 per name difference to some other registrar's reseller prices, you take notice.
First year only. After that it's paid.

Indeed I have to agree with you, namecheap is a very good and reliable provider. I've used them sins my first domain ever registered on the internet. Never had any issues compared to other registers like godaddy. Namecheap is very easy to navigate compared to other domain providers.

I have to continue moving domains away from GoDaddy because of their renewal prices. Is it reasonable to assume that namecheap is financially stable? We know that GoDaddy is here to stay, I think.

Disagreed. I had a good experience... Until today, after using them for years, namecheap decided to suspend my account for no reason and without a notice. The domains I've registered with them are my personal / work domains. It's impossible to get an information from namecheap about what's goin on.

Just got done transferring 7 domains to NC from godaddy using their transfer day promo...can't really beat the price especially compared to godaddy w/privacy.
Would be nice to find a registrar with good initial AND renewal fees, they seem to try and get you on the latter end these days. I really don't like moving stuff around, my enom renewal fees are actually fair so I usually do renew those, but hard to stay with GD wanting $13 for renewal +$8 for privacy (rounding up if memory serves). But everyone has to make money so I get the thought behind the games.Last edited by Matt; 01-28-2015 at 04:26 AM. Reason: removed quote re banned company and directed response

I have always used Namecheap with their Whois Guard Protection. They are honestly the best.

@bear Namecheap is good for SSL certs and for registering personal domains, but for reselling domains, we also found enom to be more expensive and have used NetEarthOne since 2008 without one single issue. We're at the lowest tier so our costs are quite low. Still not a profit maker, but more added-value.

Namecheap is a pretty good company. I have a few hosting accounts with them and I have had no issues. I previously had domains with them. Prices aren't the lowest though.

In general, I have good experience with NameCheap (I also worked with Register.com, eNom, GoDaddy, BigRock, Moniker and ********).
The only unpleasant surprise was when I started transferring domains away from NameCheap. However, it's not major issue as well, and, judging services I still chose to keep at NameCheap, I would say they are quite good (I use their hosted email services and DNS services, beyond keeping some domains at them).

I have posted another thread with details.
In short: they postpone all domain transfers for full 5 days since all required requests are granted (maximal delay defined in ICANN transfer policy), regardless of whether there are actual reasons for that.
No major issue, in general.
