Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Sparecashpro Sparecashpro.com (@Sparecashpro) reported

    Hello, @namecheap We mistakenly moved our web hosting to @fastmail while updating the DNS settings for our email address. Can you help reverse it?

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    Namecheap is by far the worst domain provider on the internet. Most are ****** and scammy and try to charge you for things you don’t need but Namecheap will just charge you for things you never ordered. And their support is not good… not worth the headache. What’s a good one?

  • hnslist HNSList (@hnslist) reported

    @eskimo_dev I think the investment from Namecheap is enough to keep the project alive and possibly turn it around. But with Namebase, they are insane as well. Like when I pointed out UX/UI issues and their response. They booted me from the discord server lol

  • muddaa_oP MUDDA (@muddaa_oP) reported

    Hey @Namecheap , i recently buyed hosting and now I'm facing a big problem please help me out with it i don't know what to do with it I'm very depressed. My ssl is not activating from last 9 days and I don't know why because all it says is ALERT and nothing else #namecheap

  • don_teague Don Teague (@don_teague) reported

    You know, @Namecheap support really needs to learn to mark certain accounts as 'smart person' or something. Yes, I know I have to unlock a domain to transfer. I even told you it was unlocked. Don't insult me by then saying I have to have the domain unlocked.

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap recovery code for it but anyway… I guess you guys charged me for vpn, I wasn’t able to get the email, and now it’s “unfixable”. KHA-653-54041 is the support number, but I look at this as losing $35 to not have to do business with a sneaky company.

  • xclusiveuche UCHE (@xclusiveuche) reported

    My websites has been down for almost 7 days, you guys are not working towards. This is really disappointing. @Namecheap #DOGE #NFFC #Namecheap

  • QuinnPurity quinnity (@QuinnPurity) reported

    @high_clef I don't use Nigeria based web hosting provider. I'm a big fan at Hostinger and never been disappointed yet. Namecheap is another good option. Ps. I have discount codes up to 40% on top of what these companies are offering right now. Let me know if you need it - DM opened!

  • disastronaut Jeffrey Louis Reed ( Audio Sushi ) (@disastronaut) reported

    After years of helpful hosting @Namecheap has finally let me down so completely I will be moving all domains and hosting plans - Avoid. Don't know what's happened but is a shame it's failed so completely. Avoid #Namecheap

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap That’s what I mean. I never bought the VpN and never used it. I never ordered it. I never thought about your vpn service until one day I was charged for a year of it. Again, it’s fine, I’d just rather not keep an account where this could accidentally happen. 🫡

  • chuacheehow Chua Chee How (@chuacheehow) reported

    I've been a @hover customer for many years. I went with them because they were the no-nonsense provider with minimum up-sell. I'm switching all my domains to @Namecheap over this coming week.

  • TomR4vn Tom Ravn 🇪🇺 (@TomR4vn) reported

    @dobroslav_dev Where do you buy Czech domains Dobroslav? I really like Namecheap for everything not on ".cz". But I still didn't find any nice service here in Czech. Forpsi looks like 15 years in past.

  • tim_jrobertson Timothy Robertson (@tim_jrobertson) reported

    @Namecheap Spoke to 4 different agents and submitted 3 support tickets this morning to recover my account and no one has gotten back to me! Any reason??? Please help.

  • itspriaa PRIYA 🇮🇳 (@itspriaa) reported

    @ARShukla01 @Namecheap I also wanted to login to renew my domains and I tried Jio and it worked. I hope you also find a workaround.

  • michiganspencer Spencer (@michiganspencer) reported

    @Namecheap Hey! You guys must have had some fine print or something with regards to a vpn trial because I have 2FA on my account and never bought a vpn service from you but I just got charged for a year of it. I also lost access to one of my email addresses somehow even though I have the

  • ActiveBeerGeek activebeergeek (@ActiveBeerGeek) reported

    Hey @Namecheap - Your instant chat help desk people might be sleeping at their desk or just ignoring me. No response back for a bit now. Can I get a number to call to talk to someone or am I stuck with this?

  • Sparecashpro Sparecashpro.com (@Sparecashpro) reported

    Hello, @fastmail We mistakenly moved our @Namecheap hosting to your server while updating the DNS settings for our email address. Our website is down because of this, can you assist in reversing it?

  • RandBuilds Randall McCarley (@RandBuilds) reported

    @Namecheap We don't see one. There's no follow-up email for this issue. I don't see any kind of issue tracking in her profile or C-Panel.

  • EpicLPer @epiclper@misskey.io (@EpicLPer) reported

    @Iayerzero Reported the URL to NameCheap now which is their registrar. **** those Crypto-Spam things.

  • xclusiveuche UCHE (@xclusiveuche) reported

    Namecheap literally suspended all the domains and services active on my account and also locked me out my account, I’ve submitted all the the documents they requested and still they’re yet to resolve the issue. @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap #Namecheap #Website

  • vstamos_ vasilis stamos (@vstamos_) reported

    @Namecheap Even if the site is on your servers ? Really ? We are not talking for another provider , from your one service to another !!!! Oooooooo!!!!

  • Nikhilr83191 Nikhil reddy (@Nikhilr83191) reported

    @Namecheap @FedeTrain18 Hey Namecheap what happens to domain after you take it down or suspend. Can anyone buy those domains in future. I don't know much about domains just a curiosity.

  • EatAupa AUPA! 🥩 (@EatAupa) reported

    @HashinJohnson Ya, I've been on support with @namecheap twice now and they ensure me there is nothing more I can do! I ended up putting a warning on the checkout page to check your spam folder. I'll keep looking into it.

  • ARShukla01 Anand Shukla (@ARShukla01) reported

    @Namecheap @itspriaa Not working for me.. neither Hathway, Jio, Vodafone.. none. @Namecheap my renewal is urgent how can I do it?

  • RandBuilds Randall McCarley (@RandBuilds) reported

    Which web hosts don't suck? Wife is having big problems with namecheap. Their tech didn't even understand what the C-Panel is.

  • codeinspire Code inspire (@codeinspire) reported

    @MrPunyapal I started with shared hosting on namecheap but turns out it was the worst idea. Now, I’m using Laravel forge with vultr. Forge support sucks but there is not other options.

  • ARShukla01 Anand Shukla (@ARShukla01) reported

    @Namecheap @itspriaa +1.. same issues, thanks @itspriaa, will try Jio workaround.

  • 0xCrying Crying 🧙🏻‍♂️🇭🇰 (@0xCrying) reported

    @goinKEr_llama @0xfoobar @zachxbt Namecheap is just a regular service provider, providing same services with lower price than GoDaddy is scam?
