+1. You find horror stories even on HN in the past how reckless Namecheap is.
I personally had my domains on hold frozen without traffic being routed to my servers when my ex-gf chat with them gave my username (no password) and claimed it is her account because obviously she knew my full name and address where I live. While they didn't give her access to my account they sure froze my domain for about 5 days until everything got solved.
Not long after I moved to NameSilo.
