Michael Yousrie (@michael_yousrie) reported2 days ago, @Namecheap was down. Today, @github is down. what's going on guys? are the AI models finally breaking free?
-
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?
-
Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported@Namecheap what’s being done about the outage that we experienced and the business crippling that was shared across the board? We haven’t heard anything or at least I haven’t and we still owe bills. We deserve considerations for that experience.

Old Charter (@OldCharterExp) reported@ZPEdisclosure My wife's site has been down for 3 days and she can't get into any of her other accounts because she set up 2FA through her email and website hosted with Namecheap! @Namecheap WTF???
-
Artie (@king_artie) reportednamecheap down last week friday github down today
-
handygas (@handygas) reported@Namecheap loses power in Phoenix due to a storm has to shut down the system to avoid any further damage. Shutting down websites access to all sorts of features it's almost like @Tesla_Megapack doesn't exist in the world. What the heck?
-
mmdhsrc (@mmdhsrc) reported@Namecheap Namecheap is a truly terrible company. They charged me for the PrivateSSL service which is part of a hosting plan I was planning to cancel before the billing date. When I asked for a refund, they said the charge was non-refundable. It’s a rip-off.
-
Giles Dawe (@GilesDawe) reportedGot the same message from Namecheap and Spaceship that "All our services are now back online following the significant outage caused by a cooling system failure at the RadiusDC: Phoenix data center." Wondering why they don't have backups in place to fix outages?
-
Allan K. Koech, HSC (@allankoechke) reportedDang! Some of my domains never recovered from the @Namecheap downtime.
-
mgear (@unitycoder_com) reported@HostGator suddenly charged ~103% more for my website hosting, have used HG for 15 years, with about same price all the time.. now doing transfer to @Namecheap to try them instead! *with free migration service!
-
Pils10 (@PilsZehn) reported@Nishanttt05 Namecheap, but I like Cloudflare as well... Namecheaps support is tier 1 though..
-
Bhavya | PM | Design Engineer | Framer Partner (@bhavyapandya07) reportedUpdate: EasyWP and some services were fully back online around 1:20 PM IST on Aug 14 roughly 19 hours after I posted this. The whole Namecheap outage was fully resolved on around 15 AUG 5AM IST.

Ibrahim ja'far (@El_noori101) reported@samotechnology @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap A 503 usually points to the upstream service being unavailable or overloaded. I’d check the server resources, Nginx/Apache error logs, and upstream/backend status first.
-
Shriyans Sudhi (@ss0x00) reported@hahwul I use @Porkbun and namecheap - I had a few billing issues with cloudflare (none of the payment methods worked)
-
Pelumi Isola | Software Engineer (@softwareengng) reported@EOEboh Is it that we have more apps running on cloud? It wasn’t namecheap alone sef some other hosting platforms were down too
-
JAVB Perú (@JavbPeru) reported@shonvibes @Namecheap Yes, okay, in our case, we can no longer just select UNREAD, we have to search for the email. I suppose they'll fix it.
-
Lauren (@Lorncat) reported@Namecheap You guys fixed this at 5 AM ET?!??? I’d told everyone to stay home based on your responses about how today was not something we could rely on. What a failure. Another day of rev lost as a small sole prop. No email mentioning fix, just a TWEET lmao. When is compensation?
-
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.

Maxitrol 🏝️✈️🥥 (@maxitrol_404) reported@NamecheapCEO Keep prices low! I switched to Namecheap from Hostgator because you are 3x cheaper at least. Also your support is great, don't replace it with AI
-
VictualBro (@Victual_Bro) reportedAppears that @ProtonMail is down for the same exact reason that Namecheap was down last week. Curious. Cyber attack? "Identified - We have identified a critical cooling failure in our Frankfurt datacenter. We are currently in the process of shifting traffic to our backups sites."
-
ayub (@ayubhkd) reportedApple passwords shows this morning that my account on @Namecheap seems to be leaked ? Is this related to nalecheap being down yesterday ?
-
Brenda | GenX UGC Creator (@GenXRetroUGC) reported@solomonony1 @Namecheap Yes!! Thankfully I’m able to login this morning
-
Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@sloaxleak @Namecheap @Cloudflare yeah, you're right. paying isn't the problem, picking one that stays up is
-
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.
-
B Diesel (@BDiesel6) reported@Namecheap So if a specific email address receives some emails from the outage does that mean they have received all of them? OR For a single email address are some emails delivered and some still possibly coming? —— If the latter, what time on a clock is the “nearest time”.

Richie Young (@Poor__Old) reportedAn underrated part of doing your own thing is all the tangential skills you learn. Just had a client from last year hit me up because their website was not showing online. Getting a "1001 error". Something about Cloudflare. Site built through carrd. Hosted on namecheap. Both renewed in the past year. Carrd reset to "offline draft". Namecheap added another DNS record. And it toggled ' on for the existing records. Carrd has its own ceriticate of security, so the toggles and extra DNS record were creating a problem. Honestly, I can't speak it the lingo exactly. But I knew the language enough to trouble shoot, find another back door tab in Carrd, and troubleshoot the problem. Site back up this morning. With a little help from the AI lords and the ability to speak(screenshot) the problem, it's all better now. Good start to the day. Especially after the little one was up from 11-2 last night!

Toged (@TogedLs) reportednever used Porkbun guys, any feedbacks ? i always used namecheap
-
Christina Panina (@ChristinaPanin1) reported@justdevopsguy @Namecheap I'm sorry we let you down. Unfortunately, we had a couple of global outages that coincided with the migration. The product is stabilized. Yet this is definitely not the level of product quality you deserve.

Harmon Web (@harmonwebcom) reportedWhat we learnt from yesterday’s Namecheap outage: When your infrastructure sits in one data center abroad, one power/cooling failure can take down thousands of sites, emails, and domains at once. Local, distributed hosting reduces that single point of failure.
