Namecheap Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AAutombile freshly tokunbo ride. (@AAutombile) reported

    @Namecheap @ZenithBank Not sure on what to do, have contacted the support team no good repsponse.

  • turbodomain Chacha (@turbodomain) reported

    @EurograntUK @TonyNames I once had an issue with @Namecheap. A day after expiration date, I tried to transfer and they denied, support said I needed to renew it first in order to transfer away.

  • walletdomain .wallet/ (@walletdomain) reported

    @myblogtech @DomainGuyUK @Namecheap I have all the records of all .wallet SLDs owned, and nobody will be time-penalized for Gateway's outage. We're just waiting to deploy on our new home. It would be preferable to use a non-centralized stewardship solution, so that you own it without relying on a website to stay up

  • DoctorBrandx doctorbrand.eth🔥 dubai1x.com 🔥 metaverse1x.com (@DoctorBrandx) reported

    @DomainGuyUK My first 55 web3 domains were bought via Gateway. CEO of Namecheap promised to "extract" them and get them into everyones' Namecheap/Namebase account. That has still never happened. Where are all those domain names exactly? Come on Richard! Plz! @NamecheapCEO

  • steffenmeisel Steffen (@steffenmeisel) reported

    Namecheap support goes on: Please note that, unlike your current service, only one cPanel account can be hosted with the Shared plans. Thus, please let us know the corresponding domain name and cPanel username that should be transferred in case of a downgrade.

  • mikevart Michael Wright (@mikevart) reported

    Can't believe my site just went down. Oh well. All I can do is wait for namecheap to figure it out.

  • steffenmeisel Steffen (@steffenmeisel) reported

    I dont expect you forward this to your CEO or even to a support manager, but your support is frustration to say it at least. @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO @NamecheapPR

  • masterchud Matthew Benson (1) #deplatformValidLs (@masterchud) reported

    @FeeshUnofficial @TransphobicLs They wont do anything lol, namecheap host worse ****

  • steffenmeisel Steffen (@steffenmeisel) reported

    Namecheap support: please provide us with a valid root password so we can consult with our technical team further. Me: i'm on a managed VPS plan and dont have the root password.

  • maxbanshees max banshees 1 (@maxbanshees) reported

    they're like ten bucks a year thru namecheap which isn't a terrible amount but still...... crows served its course..... [<- teaching him web design through a trial by fire]

  • poselander Per-Ola 🇺🇸 🇸🇪 🐕 🏔 (always himself) (@poselander) reported

    @DavidGewirtz @GoDaddy I left them and went to @Namecheap. No issues so far - and lower fees.

  • aktheknight Alex Knight (@aktheknight) reported

    @MattIPv4 @Namecheap Ooh we had this, and actually got charged for it even though we'd migrated to a new registrar that also charged us! Took a message to support for them to delete it and give the money back. Really not good they don't seem to be able to properly keep track of them though

  • DazeEnd Charles Perry (@DazeEnd) reported

    @Namecheap I need some help here. Your DNS is adding an erroneous A-record to my domain and sending website visitors to the wrong server. I submitted a ticket with screenshots (ticket: #MYM-516-19423), but have no response so far, and your live chat is turned off.

  • mdnoorhadi Hadi (@mdnoorhadi) reported

    @Namecheap Is there a problem with your hosting servers? Our sites been super slow today.

  • BeeHiveCyberSec BeeHive CyberSecurity (@BeeHiveCyberSec) reported

    @AltroAnon Hey, don’t feel bad, they forgot about us on hold for 43 minutes. Add this to the reason why @Namecheap is our favorite.

  • bayneri Halil Cetiner (@bayneri) reported

    @tehlike I'm this 🤏 close to making it my personal mission to buy .fyi version of every .wtf domain you buy. at ~£5, instead of commuting I can work from home and spend the money on namecheap

  • lightqun Light (@lightqun) reported

    @paladin_marco @cloudflare @namecheap please take this scam down.

  • breezez10 Steve A (@breezez10) reported

    @craftnames @Dynadot @Namecheap When you use the card via Dynadot it rings up as Computer Programming and Design Service only 1X When used via Paypal it codes as Computer Networking and Information Services "Internet" for Chase Ink cards.

  • craftnames Oren (@craftnames) reported

    Most other things being equal, one huge reason I choose to spend more at Godaddy is that they have their merchant code properly setup as an internet service and i get 5x points from Chase. @Dynadot @Namecheap please look into!

  • turbodomain Chacha (@turbodomain) reported

    @Namecheap @EurograntUK @TonyNames That's an year old issue, no need to discuss it further. Thanks

  • Abdelmalik_Moh Mohamed Ait Abdelmalik (@Abdelmalik_Moh) reported

    Becasue you can get there almost 25 API website access,That world's most popular and successful business are helping github to make thier service struggle less. For example if you need an Domain name , it's not gonna cost or expensive any more,Namecheap is an Promotional partner

  • steffenmeisel Steffen (@steffenmeisel) reported

    Namecheap support: Please accept our apologies in misunderstanding in previous reply. We have not mentioned that you have Complete management with your VPS. Since, we do not need a root password from you.

  • amandafiles amanda likes coffee (@amandafiles) reported

    @anomalistnews @GoDaddy Switch to namecheap. GoDaddy donates to bad causes.

  • ExtraTechnical Ujjwal Kumar 🇮🇳 (@ExtraTechnical) reported

    @Namecheap any issues going on with your shared hosting servers? My websites are loading super slow!

  • IntroToMig Cenizo! (@IntroToMig) reported

    @Namecheap I just purchased a domain and hosting yesterday and you already locked me out. This service is useless.

  • Sir_Eminenceee Fatoki Temiloluwa (@Sir_Eminenceee) reported

    @AdoraNwodo A solar panel, paying for a shared hosting on Namecheap, a new phone(this one be giving me loads of problems) and for 2 courses( a trading course and an AmazonKDP course too)

  • breezez10 Steve A (@breezez10) reported

    @craftnames @Dynadot @Namecheap The merchant code is a fixed code based on type of service a business primarily provides. Most internet related charges fall into "Computer, Networking, and Information Services". This gets you chase max points, others are "Computer Programming and Design Service" this is 1X

  • AAutombile freshly tokunbo ride. (@AAutombile) reported

    Can't really purchase a domain using Nigeria debit card @Namecheap @ZenithBank. This terrible.

  • DanielWorsley_ Daniel Worsley (@DanielWorsley_) reported

    @quant_arb The same thing recently happened to me when buying a domain through Google domains. I needed it, so I had to bite the bullet and fork out $4k for it vs the $30 it was initially. I have used namecheap since and haven't had the same issue.

  • JakeBuildsStuff Jake (@jsd@brighton.social) (@JakeBuildsStuff) reported

    @MattIPv4 @Namecheap Sounds like a big GDPR skill issue on their part
