    @Namecheap If only, "oops, we seem to have lost track of our error, please contact support so we can investigate."

    @Namecheap I finally, after 2 weeks of trying, managed to get it to renew without the assistance of your useless CS. I'm done with you and will be switching to someone else. I have had nothing but problems with you in the years I've been with you and I can't take it anymore.

    Can I say @Namecheap's services, pricing, and customer support is the best

    If you need a website, absolutely do not use @Namecheap I am absolutely done with their hosting. Been trying to renew my domain for weeks, have a credit because they took my money and I still can't renew. Customer support is useless.

    Hey @namecheap you have a bad phishing problem and you don't seem to be doing much about it. Another one of these bad Facebook phishes hosted with you for domain and site: fb[.]page.guidelines.1003215[.]com/log_desk_new_input.php?fbclid

    @Namecheap The issue is consistent. Please file a bug. A technically inclined engineer should be fully capable of turning this bug report into a ticket and fixing the error handling.

    @Namecheap Thanks. What happens with Fatcow is Iโ€™ll get emails returned as undeliverable and they say itโ€™s because they are shared server and IPs get blacklisted. But they rotate IPs and it will fix but it still happens 8 hours later. How do you deal with that?

    @Namecheap Can someone explain to me how itโ€™s possible that your billing system is broken for over a month?

    @Namecheap @EasyWP Please....anyone reply, I need your help, My hosting is cancelled by mistake. I want to restore my data and hosting plan. No one is replying on mail. Please respond

    @HandshakeJesus @HandshakeRave @Namecheap How does one claim 2.7M HNS coin worth $2M USD? Thatโ€™s a pretty good incentive to support the protocol. Makes sense.

    @mejutoco Godaddy was so bad for that. Not seen it with namecheap or google domains with are my go to registers.

    @Namecheap we are having problems and your live chat cannot sort having been on screen for 2 hours. Is it possible to talk to a person on the phone?

  • tedivm
    Robert Hafner (@tedivm) reported

    @Namecheap Ticket opened- you should make it more clear on the website what to do with these things, because sending it to the abuse team wasn't obvious since it was more of a security issue than someone abusing your systems.

    @Namecheap Down??

  • dearappauthors
    dearappauthors (@dearappauthors) reported

    @Namecheap That's the problem. That's the whole tweet. Your error message reporting thing didn't include an error message.

    @ScreaminJWalkin I use namecheap. Never seen anything from them that would make me think they're suspect, sketchy, or shaky.

    @Namecheap Is this a temporary issue as I'm not paying a monthly VPN to access my account?

  • pbinfinity
    ๐ŸŒด Phillip Burger (@pbinfinity) reported

    @elyktrix @Namecheap Have not used it, but I am a big fan of @DreamHost for shared hosting (simple Cloudflare integration is a +) as well as the VPS options. 12+ year customer, almost never any issues or downtime at all. Super fast and smart support.

    Woken up to a brain that's churning out new project ideas like a mad *****. Never navigated to @Namecheap as quickly or as frequently. Today will be a good day ๐Ÿ˜Ž #nocode #buildinpublic

    @Namecheap @bandholz @allenthird NameCheap is good for buying domains but not good for hosting. They don't even support let's encrypt certificate and you have to buy silly cert for SSL.

  • LianneBell_
    Lianne_Bell (@LianneBell_) reported

    Ok @Namecheap I take it back - your support system is pretty ****** good. Itโ€™s just taken me 6 hours to renew my domain name but that was my own fault for being useless at life admin. Thanks again for the help! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

  • JanetWintsbit
    Janet Winter (@JanetWintsbit) reported

    @Namecheap Do you guys care to see how negligent your staff is via chat logs? Your SSL department refuses to help. Other departments told me they are the only ones that can and they should (They refused to 3 chats in a row)

  • roylindauer
    roymisc (@roylindauer) reported

    @Namecheap it would be great if when creating a support ticket you had a department for errors with the namecheap control panel itself. Adding or editing payment methods does not work.

  • GothAlice
    Rev. GothAlice (@GothAlice) reported

    @predominant @Namecheap Recommendation: never use a registrar to identify if a name is available or not. โ€œwhoisโ€ the domain yourself so as to not give out that data.

    Hey @Namecheap Your website is down and not accessible from my location.

    Tony Sutton (@tony_sutton) reported

    @LeoKelion That's a subdomain, wonder if they have other subdomain of other delivery companies, scamming people? Domain and hosting is held by @Namecheap - perhaps they need to take this down ASAP?

    Good evening @Namecheap I need an issue resolved urgently please, I don't have 2FA access to my hosting account and one of my servers needs to be renewed ASAP ๐Ÿ˜ซ

    @Namecheap Can you elaborate on what action I should take as a customer of yours please?
