It's hard to have a lot of sympathy here.
1) Namecheap sends out renewal notices, if he wasn't getting them it's likely he didn't keep is email with them up to date.
2) Auto-Renew
- kevingrahl 8y agoI’m not asking for sympathy! I just checked to be sure and my email address on Namecheap is correct. I did not receive a notification email however.
- ymolodtsov 8y agoIt’s strange because thet are extremely good with bugging you about that: sometimes changes to every week and then to every day.
- hsk0823 8y agocould it have gone into spam?
- kevingrahl 8y agoNo, I have my own mail server and don't do automatic spam filtering (not enough volume that I could be bothered to set it up yet).
- slenk 8y agoThis just boggles my mind. I have been getting emails for 60 days before a domain expiry. Are you sure somehow a weird account isn't your namecheap contact email?
- _nalply 8y agoConspiracy alert: Perhaps a NameCheap employee has been bribed to covertly suppress notification emails?
- _nalply 8y agoNamecheap is not reliable in sending out renewal notices. Source: it happened to me, too. I wrote off the loss. Lesson here: Don't trust Namecheap but set your own reminders.
- derekp7 8y ago3) Renew for as long as a time period as possible. If a domain is 12 bucks a year, 240 bucks is a small price to pay for knowing your domain is set for the next 20 years.
- reustle 8y agoThis seems like great advice, thanks for suggesting. I'll be doing this for my critical domains.
- StuntPope 8y agoNot sure why nobody else does this, but with easyDNS you can setup an iCal feed with your domain expirations.
