Todd A 🤙 Badlander (@rigid_river_MT) reported@LocalSEO_Guy @batesbn I like Namecheap for a registrar. Cloidflare for dns. But I rarely get to choose the hosting unless its a new build. I cover all the domain migration stuff. Godaddy isnt a terrible regisrar, but i dont like waiting so long for a record to propogate. Their builder is 💩 tho.

The Life & Times of ... (@BROaDWaYJiM) reported@Namecheap Needing support.

Corinson Davila (@corinsondavila) reported@NamecheapCEO Unfortunately all the emails I could have received during the Namecheap shortage are lost. You talked about "emails received during the outage may be delayed" but I don't think you're going to restore anything. Is your company will refund for this lost? Please, be honest.

SolPay (@SolPayCash) reported5/ This launch was delayed a bit by the recent Namecheap DNS outage, but we’re moving again. This week we’ll publish a video demo from inside SolPay Sandbox showing the Commerce Graph in action. 2,000+ products is just the starting dataset.

The Ran Network (@therannetwork) reported@Namecheap Your problems are causing us problems. Are you considering some form of compensation for leaving your customers mute and blind for days?
-
Sesy Ai (@Sesy_Agency) reported@Namecheap I have the NC-GPA-2874 Ticket, but I Still Don't have a solution. I've spent 1.5 hrs on this, and there's still no fix. Can you please expedite this?
-
The Sentinel (@J3SS3777) reportedThat Namecheap outage? Total gift 🎁 Seriously, it made me realize with all this constant AI watching over my network, I don't even need those clunky old tools like Snort anymore. 💪 Time to upgrade! 🚀 #AIVision #Cybersecurity #FutureIsNow

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 .

jon3k (@jon3k) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap We had a major outage today caused by this. The provider colocated there told us they took ambient temps at 180 degrees and cabinet metal was hot to the touch. They brought in chillers and we're back up around 5 or 6 CST.

Jak (@jakcater) reported@NamecheapCEO @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Please tell me when emails received during outage will come through.

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.

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.

Shawn McAllister (@eas4ai) reported@Namecheap No… last time I had an issue, you said the same ****… kindly **** off.
-
CANICE 👾 (@okwudilicanice_) reportedThe recent Namecheap outage is a good reminder that developers need contracts that clearly separate what we control from what we don't. You can support your client without taking responsibility for a third party's failure.

Barely There (@YonnyWiden) reported@Namecheap @coachwesnoski Your live chat is never responded to by a human, only the AI tool.
-
SetraHost (@SetraHost) reported@alexneyret @Namecheap Well said! Datacenter issues are out of a hosting companies control when collocating. While downtime is never fun, these things can happen unfortunately & from what I’ve seen, NameCheap communicated throughout it all & even sent staff onsite to expedite the recovery process.
-
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?
-
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
-
Farmercologist (@farfesadee) reportedSo apparently, Contabo newly introduced a free firewall feature which was enabled on the account and as a result, every incoming traffic was being dropped. More so, the issue Namecheap had last Thursday affected our domain as well, the DNS record completely stopped communicating with the server’s public IP. All issues fixed💯💯💯. Now I can rest😒😒😒 This is one of the things you get for working as a Bsckend Engineer.
-
shon.vibes (@shonvibes) reported@Namecheap Apparently with namecheap's new terrible interface you cannot set up a default font for all of your emails. Those of us who run businesses often choose to do this so that message font aligns with the vibe of our company. Now, you have to manually do it in every email.
-
MageGate Games | MageGate.com (@mage_gate) reportedOur email service has been restored after yesterday's @Namecheap outage. We're not sure whether all emails sent during the outage were successfully delivered. If you emailed us on August 13 and haven't heard back by the end of August 14, please resend your email. Thanks!
-
Barely There (@YonnyWiden) reported@NamecheapCEO One of our two sites is still down, no response from HTTP connection request. It's been more 15 hours since our customers cannot access our site. Our competitors do not use namecheap, so they have been up. This is the worst fail imaginable.
-
matt guitar boi (@m_davies94) reportedhad a terrible experience with porkbun today trying to buy a domain email verification on signup didn't work (got the code, their verification form hung) then when I finally got past that, they required ID verification and my license is cracked so namecheap got my business
-
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

Kevin Guaman (@KCG3D) reportedi genuinely did not get the "hype" for this AI assistant called Instinct. if you have Codex or Claude, you can technically do everything it does. BUT, the problem is you need to download an app to your machine, make sure you got data/wi-fi, ask Computer Use to get it done, etc. Instinct just turned off auto renewal in Namecheap for a website for me. my first WOW moment was that it has it's own Vault, asked me for my password (like 1Password) and just got **** done for me. i don't know if i fully trust it yet, but it got it done over iMessage, accurately, in less than a minute, and sent a screenshot.
-
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.

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.
