3) I don't know
4) I haven't try yet but should be easy (standard panel)
Well, I like them. Great price, great panel and whois privacy is $1 (so it's cheaper than free :P )
I tried them, have few domains, it seems they are from reselleclub and its sellers, as of no issues is faced from our end. May be during transfer or renewal some issues we may face but as of now its fine.
seems they are IANA accredited registrar

They are fine. I don't have any domains with them that I care about, though. I'll go with a more well-established registrar for domains I care about.
They are OK and trustworthy. They do run some nice promos. Yes, you can transfer a domain, just follow their rules for specific TLDs. https://my.alpnames.com/kb/servlet/KBServlet/faq1375.html
They're good. Transfer out easy, They take orders from almost any country.
Plus their panel allows domain push. bulk edit etc.
Spam, much spam, lots of spam, SPAAAAM!
You referring to yourself, don't you?
Such a shame, my digestive system rejects spam. I mostly eat spearphished cod as far as meats go.
Jokes aside can you detail a little more the spam? We talkin' my-ex-opened-credit-cards-in-my-name-and-spent-six-hundred-dollars-on-CBT-porno kind of spam, or Alpnames-sends-you-newsletters-about-their-sales-just-like-every-other-site-and-they-even-include-opt-out-links-if-you-opted-in kind of spam?
Sure, thing. I hope you're on the clock.
Promo stuff even if I unsubscribed before (not like every other site), just did that again.
ooh that's like, really bad, or something. unsolicited doodoo is even a big no-no in gibraltar (http://www.gra.gi/download/318/2006s074.pdf sections 22ish-27ish) where alpnames hq is.
back on topic - i personally wouldn't trust alpnames with any domain i actually use (ie not parked) since they're operating a resellerclub store ffs. but, i don't think they're going to flat-out disappear, they operate a hell of a lot of domains given their infrastructure. as far as the new gTLDs go, they manage over 2,000,000 domains, which is more than any other registrar except West.cn https://ntldstats.com/registrar
I've used them plenty of times for useless domains due to cheapness. And if they work out usually move them out after a year.
Hello,
I have signed 10 years of domains
Thank You!
Its worth, all domains instantly activated within few minutes
They are not operating a resellerclub's store.
And they are physically located in Gibraltar, not just for tax purposes. The employees are located there, as their offices are.
For anyone that's interested, these are all the $7.60 per 10 years extensions.
thanks everyone, got a .com from Alpnames, they use PublicDomainRegistry indeed, I wonder why they don't use their own, since they are also an IANA accredited registrar.
I don't know if they can go on in the long run, too much spam, I bought some domains there but nothing important, for example I got dollarvps.com when it is expired, but my main domains I do not feel like keeping them there.
