I have 2 domains on one of my NameCheap accounts, one domain was for testing some CPA offer and now I'm considering removing it from my NameCheap account, however, there is no option to delete a domain name on my dashboard.

I decided to contact NameCheap support and help me with this problem. Below you can see my conversation. At the end, you will see that to actually delete a Namecheap domain you have to ask them to do so, no option to remove it yourself from the control panel.

Your Question: How to delete a domain name?
Please wait, an operator will be with you shortly.

16:51Daniel:
it's a bad domain, most likely nobody will buy it, other option?
16:51Alexander Babanskiy:
- You can let the domain name expire and it will be removed automatically.
16:51Alexander Babanskiy:
- We can remove the domain name from your account manually.
16:52Daniel:

16:53Alexander Babanskiy:
Yes, that is it.

Thanks Mr B, this is informative. I once got my hands burned trying to register a domain. I registered a bad domain, good keyword but one of those weird extensions(.life). It was with another registra though. Maybe I would have asked for a refund but I thought even the .life would sell, only to discover it was all crap. I did not even bother asking them how to delete it, I had to let it go on its own.
