They answer their Support Phone Line! After getting fed up trying to get some account support on my old registrar, I decided to give Epik.com another try as my go-to domain parking-lot... I'm glad I did, and my Faith is restored (for now)... I had some questions and called before sign-up/ dom transfer, it was immediately picked up by someone that actually knows enough to answer my questions and not just read copy off their site. Refreshing. I'm impressed with the "new Epik" so far and hope I never have to transfer again or update this review:)

Resilient domain registration Epik is the registrar for many domains that are important for people that care about free speech rights, so I used them to register domains that were likely to receive bogus takedown requests by activists. The Epik service was resilient while I used it, but I didn't renew my service. In 2021, Epik was hacked and customer information was published. In 2022, Epik became financially distressed, perhaps due to mismanagement. And in 2023, Epik lost an important lawsuit that caused corporate restructuring.

Epik is an activist organization enforcing their own arbitrary, opaque morality Epik has decided to insult their customers and I don't know why. Here are some quotes from their social media: "Yeah. We're into freeze peach... but not free speach. Our liberal employees are cancelling kiwifarms!" Kiwi Farms is a controversial but legal website. While it's understandable to dislike them, and I certainly do, what's concerning is how Epik has declared themselves moral arbiters over their customers. They have made it clear they are willing to do this to anybody. Here are some more unhinged quotes from their official Twitter: "I think you caught us. It was woke liberal employees here cancelling you because they didn't like the hate speech on your site." Hate speech is not defined by the law in the United States. This means Epik is deciding on their own what constitutes hate speech and is enforcing their opaque definition. Continuing: "What do you want us to say. We have a bunch of woke liberals working here and they wanted to cancel Kiwifarms. We're not really focused on supporting free speech anymore. Just trying to be a good domain registrar." So Epik is allowing "woke liberals", whatever that means, to "cancel" a website because a few employees simply wanted to. This is from their official account. This is what Epik wants it's customers to know about them. Clearly they are not a serious company trying to do business. Apparently personal politics comes before customer service. How are you supposed to work with a company who makes that their official line? "We screwed this up many different ways. And are learning. We are trying to establish better processes and guidelines so that we don't have employees go rogue on us. What is CP? 5 employees see it differently, so we are undergoing some hard questions to try to get better. sorry" This isn't a professionally worded statement, it's a slap in the face to anybody expecting to business with them on the level. To be clear, Epik has now falsely accused Kiwi Farms of hosting child pornography and done so many times. When challenged on why they haven't reported it to the police, this is their response. Given their actions today, their apology is clearly sarcastic. At the time of posting this review, all their defamatory tweets are still live. On the topic of child pornography, they gave this reply but conspicuously did not mention informing authorities which would be the morally and legally correct thing to do: "We would obviously think pedophiles and child molesters are horrible and hope karma finds them soon. Maybe a semi truck will run them over." Why is a domain registrar wishing a semi truck runs over anybody? All they have to do is call the FBI. We have a system in place to punish criminals, it is not Epik's place to supplant that. Nobody asked them to. Furthermore, law enforcement would listen to a complaint from Epik. But Epik won't do the right thing and inform any authorities after claiming to have witnessed a crime against children. Why is that? "Epik offers .25 over cost domain registrations. So .com is 9.99 initially and upon renewal. We're here to support you even if there is scum on your website." Perhaps this is why. Epik is willing to support illegal websites so long as it does not run afoul of the personal politics of their employees. This does not instill faith for people simply trying to run a business. Epik expects their customers to conform to a set of morals they do not and will not state. How are you supposed to do business with a company like that when they have a history of arbitrarily pulling the plug on websites they simply do not like? "We believe in Frees Peach" What does that even mean? "We do not seize domains. Sorry if you have come to that conclusion. We are here to support domain owners. .com's are 9.99 initially and upon renewal. Thank you." This is a lie, Epik has a history of seizing domains without warning and they know it. At this point Epik is openly gaslighting their customers. "We didn't take that domain from the owner. We were forced to help the owner switch to another registrar by the US authorities. I believe it is registered in Canada now." This is in reference to KiwiFarms.net, a domain they attempted to seize but were prevented of doing so by US law. This is a tacit admission that they do in fact steal domains. Why does Epik do this? Perhaps this will clear things up: "Epik LLC purchased the assets of Epik.com in June of 2023. The old owners did a lot of awful things. We operate very differently." So Epik was purchased in 2023 and now operates not as a business but as an activist organization. Is this the sort of people you can do business with? I'm sure somebody will say yes, but for the vast majority of us just trying to provide a livelihood for ourselves and our families, Epik is not a company to be trusted. In fact they are openly saying so unambiguously.
