OK, I just spent $150 transferring domains to GoDaddy. Considering this was forced by Namecheap's actions, which are "definitely not deplatforming", I can surely expect reimbursement? Ticket ID #CWL-599-95208 Also, what about getting money for domains paid in advance? I've had a domain paid until May 21, 2026, as I've trusted Namecheap (my oldest domain name with them was registered on Jun 30, 2015). Some domain zone…

Re: Namecheap: Russia Service Termination
#992We haven't blocked the domains, we are asking people to move. There are plenty of other choices out there when it comes to infrastructure services so this isn't "deplatforming". I sympathize with people that are not pro regime but ultimately even those tax dollars they may generate go to the regime. We have people on the ground in Ukraine being bombarded now non stop. I cannot with good conscience continue to support…
Why not just block renewals and new registrations? Do you have to pay taxes to Russia on .ru registrations at other times?

Btw, you always used hype to promote yourself, from the times of SOPA & Godaddy sh*t, when you got a lot of clients, including me.
Bye-bye, no more good will for you.

I am an American and lucky not to have anything in Russia but as a namecheap customer, I urge you to please be patient with people and give them time to move. I understand the decision you made and it is your right to do so but please do not block someone just because they couldn't do it by a certain date. I am sure you know but empathy is really needed right now. Your March 6 deadline worries me.

1. You terminate my service on a nationalistic basis. Ok, that's sad, but at least I can move.
2. You charge me for my domain for the period after service termination.
3. You tell "refund or redemption and you can't use your domain for a month or $70".
4. You tell "oopsie whooopsie, to our deepest regret, we have mistakenly cancelled the renewal".
Worst service ever.

#999I am immune suppressant and a vaccine could kill me but what nearly killed me was the same behaviour here from a Corporation/s who stopped me from accessing services. And this move is the care and concern of people.... I will be moving to a REAL company with morals and brains.

You are doing to one people what your supposedly standing up against and marketing it!
Qui Bono, what you getting out of this NC Ceo? Time will tell and there's going to be a lot of cognitive Dissonance going around soon enough.
Pathetic crony of the fascistic global capitalist overlords. Yes I'm western, Yes I can source the truth, I do not watch the spew from anything mainstream and I detest infowars, just saying.
You don't know me and I'm asking, is this legal, I think (I will be asking my Lawyer Wife) your open to claims big time and I'm sure many will hear about this approach and walk, i really hope so. I had a similar experience with a VPN service, I walked and told a hell of a lot of people. You mr/ms/LGBTQIZM CEO are a part of oppression just like the megalomaniacs on the other side.
This never stops with the beginning reasons, never! A free internet is becoming a dream. Your involved in censorship simple!
