Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • A6dyDomainer Addy - Domain Investor (@A6dyDomainer) reported

    @NamecheapCEO Spaceship looks fantastic! Are you abandoning Namecheap? My support ticket for a bug has been open for 10 days with no fix.

  • Mo7sn_ مُحسنٌ (@Mo7sn_) reported

    @Namecheap No help founded

  • kar1mak0s The Web Squirrel (@kar1mak0s) reported

    @nut3case Ama namecheap. Hao customer support is available in minutes.

  • RC_NGMI Ram.x 🫧🫧🫧 (@RC_NGMI) reported

    @ShaneCultra @Namecheap Maybe the support agent wasn't clued up. I spoke to support yesterday and the agent tried to say it was correct, I mentioned that Richard knew about this issue. They then added 2 extra years to my domain.

  • domains411 Name Game (@domains411) reported

    @ShaneCultra @Namecheap That's bad. Pricing transparency shenanigans. Plus conflict of interest... registrar sure is gonna love promoting auctions that benefit them like that.

  • mano_sec Mano (@mano_sec) reported

    SQLiteDB is connected as a volume to the required containers. I bought my domain on Namecheap and configured it to use Cloudflare name servers. Every request is proxied through Cloudflare's network, masking my origin IP and enforcing HTTPS.

  • ShaneCultra Domain Shane (@ShaneCultra) reported

    @kingific @Namecheap nah. All in on AI. Can't blame the ref of one game and call it a bad sport. They'll make it right and I will make a lot of money in AI as expected

  • ankity10 Ankit (@ankity10) reported

    @Namecheap No, never—except on your support chat. Whether I get the domain back or not, I request that you investigate this internally. What are the odds of this happening just two hours after speaking with your support? I can’t believe it myself.

  • johanwulf Johan Wulf (@johanwulf) reported

    The user experience on Namecheap is so bad

  • JLow1943 James Lowry (@JLow1943) reported

    NAMECHEAP REALLY SUCKS I pick a com domain and THEY doubled the AD price on me. That is not nice. If you advertise a price, you should honor that price if you have a scintilla of honor, integrity, character, honesty and morality. It is also illegal to false advertise.

  • StakeHexAlot ⬣ Hexlano PulseAlot ⬣ (@StakeHexAlot) reported

    @GoPulsecom @Namecheap It’s quite pathetic honestly. Use a different dns provider. This whole delay is absolutely nonsense. Unless you have some sort of issues with domain ownership this should not occur.

  • virolog Gökhan (@virolog) reported

    @ShaneCultra @Namecheap So if people don’t do the math and chase after them, they just pocket the difference? Based on their response for the $27 refund, that’s how I’m interpreting it. Really bad look if so.

  • BaconMoney420 BaconMoney420 (@BaconMoney420) reported

    @AmiCable__C @GoPulsecom @Namecheap Looks like never.

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @tech_tested @Namecheap If you registered a .us or .in domain your data is public by default based on registry rules, not ours, this info is provided to you as a warning before you register. We would never sell your data.

  • zihvvn Zihaan (@zihvvn) reported

    bro this @Namecheap login sucksss

  • ankity10 Ankit (@ankity10) reported

    @Namecheap @Namecheap I talked to support team at 09-06-2025 at 4am in the morning the domain name is purchased at 7:30 am. What would you say on this? I knew this domain name for 2 months, getting it moved like this is no coincidence as it is not a common name as well.

  • J3rryH0well Jerry Howell (@J3rryH0well) reported

    @itss_esh Namecheap, always the best in my experience. Unless you're a first time customer, then get your $.99 dot com from somewhere.

  • gdbuildsgd Goksu (@gdbuildsgd) reported

    @thesecara i'd die for namecheap, but was not satisfied with their customer support recently. also gonna need cloudflare storage for this one, so the switch makes sense.

  • domain Domain (@domain) reported

    @JoshDotCo At least Namecheap price fairly and list the names for sale easily. Narendra owns so many and is difficult for buyers to deal with. Tang asks for astronomical prices with a terrible landing page showcasing his hoarding. Igor is also extremely difficult to deal with.

  • kingific King (@kingific) reported

    @MichaelCyger It's hard to have them all at one place when you're a domain investor, they are scattered many are at Dynadot 😐 GoDaddy 😠 Namecheap 🥸 Namebright 🫥 The two fossils that start with Name still don't generate SSLs for HTTPS redirect support.

  • Darcymason Darcy - BuyitforLife.com (@Darcymason) reported

    @SeeBrands @Namecheap It's a terrible back end for investors.

  • JLow1943 James Lowry (@JLow1943) reported

    NAMECHEAP doubled their RATES and are now the most expensive domain costs on the internet. Plus Custormer Service is really bad. Look at the post I just made to them and please share. The world needs to know. Well, I am disappointed that I have to post everything twice.

  • Kmd_Animex KMD NAMES (@Kmd_Animex) reported

    @MichaelCyger First I tried PorkBun and it's good but had some phone number Problems, tried Name dot com and I like it already but the main registrar I use for my domain and has decent marketplace is Namecheap and I like it and I use it more than any other registrar

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    Our expireds(namecheap, spaceship) are auctioned along with registry auctions. Our support team has a process to credit the small number of auctions that don't renew properly. Whomever you are talking to within our support has given you wrong information. You can share the ticket ID with me or refer them to this post and they will resolve the issue for you.

  • francip Franci Penov (@francip) reported

    @BenjaminDEKR Namecheap. Or Squarespace if you must. Never GoDardy.

  • rulelikepatrick Patrick Rules (@rulelikepatrick) reported

    @Namecheap i have never had such crap service

  • ankity10 Ankit (@ankity10) reported

    @Namecheap I would request you to check my support chat on 09 June-2025 at 4am IST and compare that with domain registration time.

  • uzakyolkaptani Cemal (@uzakyolkaptani) reported

    @Namecheap I do not think so. Many times contacted with your support:(

  • Onyiibekeh Dr. Onyii with a double i (@Onyiibekeh) reported

    Has anyone been able to pay for **** on namecheap lately? It’s rejecting all my cards.

  • SigniusNetworks Signius (@SigniusNetworks) reported

    @Namecheap did you make changes to your Dynamic DNS system in the last couple of days? Because for some reason my DDNS is now resolving to the wrong IP address, I've deleted it & recreated it & same issue 😡
