Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Hamid Mousavi (@hamid2108) reportedOur VPS has been down and intermittently inaccessible since yesterday, with no prior notice, no email, no clear explanation, and not even an apology. This is not the level of reliability or communication we expect from a VPS provider. @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO
-
Old Charter (@OldCharterExp) reported@Dynadot @ZPEdisclosure Is it possible for my wife to move he domain from Namecheap while it's down? I see a LOT of people freaking out that had crypto wallets tied to emails and websites they were hosting, what a total 💩show!
-
Camille Godwin (@RBKGRG) reported@Namecheap @NamecheapCEO You still have issues and you should be transparent about it. And the new format is horrible. You are touting it as improved but it adds nothing new and takes away everything that was so useful in the OX interface. Guess I'm changing providers after some good years.
-
PixelPioneer (@PixelPioneerOnX) reported@PaulMugenda @Techparleynews @Namecheap I have a ticket open. They are not acknowledging anything regarding it being broken on their end. I have multiple sites. All php is broken and on their end.
-
Richard Kirkendall (@namecheapceo123) reported@a_shimanski @Namecheap Sorry about that and I agree, we could have postponed this until next week especially after the recent outage.
-
Toyin Omotoso (@toyinomotoso) reportedEveryone is badmouthing Namecheap because one of their servers went down just once in 26 years. All companies experience things like this at some point. It has happened to Google, Facebook and other giants. When it becomes worrisome is if it happens often.
-
Rumeysa Gelgi (@RumeysaGelgi) reported@NamecheapCEO I’ve relied on Namecheap/PrivateEmail for my professional contact for five years, so today’s outage is concerning. Could you please confirm there has been no data loss, especially in PrivateEmail? I have five years of important business emails and cannot manually check them all.
-
Generalissimo P4X (@P4X_real) reported@UK_Daniel_Card See they had disaster recovery and their compliance standards said it had to be at a separate site. So they likely figured well, upstairs on the second floor is *basically* another site, I mean it’s a different location altogether, one has one set of coordinates and the other another. Besides their data centers are SOCII compliant meaning they have *environmental and power redundancy* because they care. Mostly they care about looking like they care though. Auditors came by, but they mostly had beers and didn’t give a ****, see they’re incentivized to not give a **** because a clean audit means they’ll be hired again. they’re totally independent, but the beers were good and their business depends on the one massive client. They of course made note of the DR situation, but namecheap accepted the risk by signing a paper and pinky swearing it would totally be fixed soonish at some point probably. This is my literal experience with compliance audits. They’re a joke. The bit about namecheap only using SOCII compliant data centers is real btw. So what happened? An abundant lack of competence.

Milan Jovanović (@mjovanovictech) reportedIs Namecheap still down?
-
Biz-find (@bizfindonline) reportedIts them Eclipses I'm telling you! They cause all sorts of mayhem all over the world, this week couldnt pay bills online , money went out of my account, Namecheap servers crashed leaving 5 odd million sites down a good 12 hours, what happened to you?
-
$empiternal$trafe (@SempiternalStrf) reported@Namecheap Not only my website is down but also important files and folders from some subdomains i have seems to be gone, i hope everything will get restored, i had LOTS of work done for my clients.
-
1000x (@djomla1000x) reported@danearden @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Same. What a ******* shame I hope everybody migrates hosting away from this terrible company. I guarantee they won’t do anything to repay loyal customers after this much more than an apology.
-
Pils10 (@PilsZehn) reported@Nishanttt05 Namecheap, but I like Cloudflare as well... Namecheaps support is tier 1 though..
-
Etta egbe (@ettaegbe) reported@taylorotwell When Namecheap went down, I wondered if the cloud in Laravel cloud is actually cloud as in if a data center in the US fails a data center in Europe can still serve our applications.
-
Best AI Tools ! (@Impact177) reportedNamecheap was down for 15 hours yesterday. 5,000 servers. One datacenter. Zero redundancy. Here's what every website owner should check today 👇 1/3
-
Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@appdevbyamitesh @Namecheap their Phoenix datacenter lost cooling, so they shut servers down to protect the hardware. domains, hosting and email all went with it. business email was down most of the day
-
Lauren (@Lorncat) reported@JulianPhoenix2 @NamecheapCEO He can’t do that. It’s too big of a loss and they would go bankrupt (ideal though — this company is a hazard to businesses, especially essential service ones). One solution is Namecheap credit which matches our reported losses, plus a split of his salary between us all.
-
Allan K. Koech, HSC (@allankoechke) reportedDang! Some of my domains never recovered from the @Namecheap downtime.
-
Alex Johnson (@BeardedDale) reported@badrDev_ @Namecheap What are you going to do to eliminate single points of failure? It’s not only the responsibility of your service provider.
-
Cap-EO 👨🏾💻 (@EOEboh) reportedThe way namecheap was down yesterday is scary.. we might start seeing more elongated downtimes like this
-
Barrouchi (@Barrouchi) reported@AgentGoodbye @Namecheap That’s exactly the point. A tiny credit doesn’t come close to the real damage. $3k lost in a day — potentially $9k+ if the outage continues — is serious business impact, not just “a few hours of downtime.” Namecheap may not be able to cover everyone’s losses, but after an outage like this, the compensation should at least reflect the scale of the disruption.
-
Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reportedWe’ll apologize to our small business and enterprise customers. We are still experiencing the @Namecheap data outage. Thousands of businesses were affected. We will fix this. @NamecheapCEO we need a solution, post haste.
-
QUI.IS (@qui_is_qui) reported@mstables1991 @Namecheap ... and caused from cooling issues in Arizona 😬
-
Sam (@samotechnology) reported@NamecheapCEO Hello @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Many of my sites are still getting Error 503. Service Unavailable The server is temporarily unavailable. Please check back shortly. If this problem persists, please contact our Technical Support department.
-
Michael Knight (@michaelmknight) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap 33 Hours down, and still NO Email, NO VPS. THIS IS NOW BEYOND UNACCEPTABLE!
-
Gregg (@EmpiricalFBA) reported@alijcar @Namecheap We're noticing issues again too
-
Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@TaskLemonWorks @Namecheap @Cloudflare thanks, the worst part is clients don't know why you went quiet
-
Ex0 Byte (@Ex0_Byte) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap This outage brought me across this website. And has informed me I can start my buisness for essentially free, not 300$ .... its called sole proprieter .
-
Hank Oflameo (@Oflameo) reported@internetarchive If it make you feel better, @Namecheap had a power outage last week.
-
Cyberw@t (@Cyberw0t) reported@iuditg Phoenix data center overheated yesterday and a Namecheap and others were down 12 hours.
