Password problem

I got myself into a very difficult password problem and was locked out at an urgent moment. iwantmyname support were very calm and patient. First of all they made really sure I wasn't a scammer and when they were quite sure they guided me through a secure way to reset my login password. Very supportive and very reassuring!

Easy and cheap - Poor customer service experience

Very straight forward process to check and select and domain. Same goes for billing, payment etc.,

However, customer support (provided by R.A. in this instance) was completely sub-par. While no guarantee is provided that you can refund a .COM address, it may be possible to do so if no registration payment has occured - according to their company website.
R.A. completely disputed this and requested me to submit links to their own website (!) that stated the above. After I did so, R.A. told me to make sure I do not make typos, and that a refund is not guaranteed.
I received no explanation about what makes a refund possible or not possible, especially considering that both my purchase and the refund request took place during business closure (weekend).

Domain Transfer Support Was Great

Contacted support regarding transferring ownership of multiple domains, at one time, into my account from an outside registrar. Support got back to me ASAP, answered my questions and confirmed I had all the needed details in order. The entire ownership transfer process went smooth and unexpectedly fast.

IWantMyName.com is genuine.

IWantMyName.com is one of the remaining genuine registars on the web. Great service and as long as your happy with email support the team really delivers.

I have been with IWMN since the early days when they were 3 guys in Wellington and they have retained that dedication to service as they have grown.

Fast and expert assistance

Fast and expert assistance. For most tasks, I find that their website is easy to navigate and straightforward. If ever something comes up that is more advanced and I don’t fully understand, they are quick to assist. I feel comfortable having my domains sitting with them.

iwantmyname has demonstrated an…

iwantmyname has demonstrated an alarming lack of accountability. A false phishing report led to the unjust disabling of itch.io's domain. Despite being provided with a response disproving the claim, iwantmyname disregarded it and took down the site anyway. This is a clear failure to protect their clients from automated, baseless copyright claims. If your domain can be disabled without proper investigation, your trust and business are clearly at risk. Avoid at all costs!

Good answers take time. Are worth it though!

The people at iwantmyname answer thoroughly. This takes a day or two but is understandable. Usually the service is trouble free!
This time I had a concern about an email listing changes to 2FA and I had them verify it is genuine.
I don’t trust emails with links. You guys might consider not sending them anymore and just tell people to log in and read about it.

Great service

Very responsive. I've been using iwantmyname for over 5 years now and I'm not a techie by any stretch; I just want a domain for my Fastmail email account. The price is very fair; they don't constantly raise prices or try to up-sell you on stuff you don't need. Although domain technology can be confusing to us "mere mortals," I've been able to do most everything on my own through their website. And importantly, when I have a question, their service is prompt, clear and friendly. I highly recommend iwantmyname.

Excellently responsive and helpful service!

I've only had good service from iwantmyname. They are quick to respond, and always helpful. That gives me peace of mind, and that's why I've been hosting my domain name with them for a good number of years. Highly recommended.

They will turn off your site and not answer your emails

It seems they don't care about their client and are happy to turn company's off on an automated reooport.
They also don't seem to reply to emails.
Probably the worse registrar out there.

Use porkbun instead, at least they have humans that reply to emails.

Great support, easy to work with

The answer I got from the support team was succinct and really to the point, so I'm happy with them. They're my company of choice for hosting my domains for over 10 years, I highly recommend them!

Simple to use. Responsive, friendly support.

I've used iwantmyname.com for several years. The site's clean and simple to use.

Recently, I forgot to cancel the auto-renew on a domain I no longer use. I got charged, realized my mistake, and contacted customer service. They were highly responsive and my cancelation / refund request was handled very quickly.

Simply the best!

Simply the best!

I have been using iwantmyname for about 10 years. But recently I forgot to update my credit card and then didn’t bother to check my emails going to spam for a month, I lost access to my shop! But the very quick response from iwantmyname and their excellent customer service I was back up and in business immediately. I am a very satisfied customer and highly recommend iwantmyname. They are simply the best!

Great user support

When I choose a product or a service, the quality of user support that the company providing that product or service is what really sets one company apart from another, and what makes me a repeat customer of that company.

In that respect, iwantmyname is a company that I can trust and one that I will continue to rely on for my domain name needs. A gem of a company.

Easy & cheap ... best registry on the internet!

Easy interface. Simple design. Clear search results. Cheapest registration around.

No extra frills and features cluttering up the service (ahem..godaddy)

Still my go-to place for domains after all these years
