925-363-6600 is a disconnected number. The namesecure website does not have any phone numbers anywhere. All responses are handled via webform to avoid giving you their email address. Namesecure webforms auto respond with useless information with no followup. A word to the wise: Do not use companies that hide from you once they get your money.
- Although I am for transparency and OpenBusiness, I have not had unsolved problems with this registrar, who is not a reseller and offers free DoItYourself modification of the registrant accounts (for lowcost domain-transfer). Their Email-address came after my first transaction with them.

Thank you anyhow for the information. --fridemar 18:16, 25 February 2008 (PST)
NameSecure provides no phone number on their website. Moreover, requests for information through their contact form are ignored. I agree with the first poster -- do not have dealing with companies that hide once they have your money.

I found a couple of phone numbers that work as of 11/29/08. (703) 668-4600 works, but since it's after hours right now, there's no one there. (570) 708-8418 has a recording explaining that to be competitive, Name Secure has switched to an email based support system and gives the email address of 
. I checked out the BBB report on them, and they are rated as satisfactory. Although there have been complaints, they've been resolved. Hopefully when the weekend is over, I'll be able to get help from them.
