Tell HN: Namecheap has hijacked my Domain's name server records

Assuming you reached out to them, have they provided any commentary on why this happened? I feel like something is missing here. Did they start redirecting to some kind of default page?

Yes. This is an ICANN rule, but I never received an email from them claiming they are going to hijack the WHOIS record. I'm still fighting with their completely unusable UI to try and figure out how to fix this.

Everyone seems excited about hover.com, but I don't know why. I have a domain that was xferred to hover.com. It is OK.

Conclusion: Namecheap can't be trusted. And I am now looking for a provider to transfer my 25+ domains.
