    @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.

    @Namecheap Private mail still not working!!!

    Option 3: Namecheap Namecheap accepts PayPal as well as cards if you already have or can set up a PayPal account funded another way, that sidesteps the naira-card issue too.

    @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap 33 Hours down, and still NO Email, NO VPS. THIS IS NOW BEYOND UNACCEPTABLE!

    Spaceship seems to have rewritten everything from the ground up except for the domain search function which is arguably the most important feature, and the worst part about Namecheap. I may be alone here, but I find Beast Mode insufferable.

    @sloaxleak @Namecheap @Cloudflare yeah, you're right. paying isn't the problem, picking one that stays up is

    @Namecheap I am having issues with renewing my domains. Checkout says my cc is not valid, but i cannot find any problems as it is my default and previously used card.

    @Namecheap Your problems are causing us problems. Are you considering some form of compensation for leaving your customers mute and blind for days?

    @Dynadot @ZPEdisclosure Is it possible for my wife to move he domain from Namecheap while it's down? I see a LOT of people freaking out that had crypto wallets tied to emails and websites they were hosting, what a total 💩show!

  • Adtastic

    @NamecheapCEO I've been with @Namecheap for years. The service has been flawless. Unlike everywhere else I'd been over my 28 years in business. An event like this is unmistakably horrific and probably hurt a lot of of other people more than it hurt me. But I don't see that Namecheap was the cause of this event. Maybe they could have handled it better. Maybe they could have communicated it better. Maybe they could have mitigated it better. Hopefully, they've learned many lessons here and will adapt and adjust. I've learned my own lessons like taking DNS of my ded server and moving it elsewhere so if there is a next time I can recover myself and my clients quickly via our offsite backups. Having a small server in another region that does syncs of my important systems but stays offline and is available to fire up in a situation like this so I don't lose my billing system or other important processes. I'm not going to hold Namecheap responsible for this event. I will still be a loyal customer unless someday they become different and contrary. I expect they will learn and grow from this event just as I have. Try and have a nice day and accentuate the positive.

    Can anyone beat my ~€10/mo hosting (~€120/year)? → 10 domains included btw. At €12.89 (Namecheap retail price) per .com/year I would already exceed the hosting plan (€128.9/year) just for domain costs. For Laravel I have PHP/Composer, DB, cron, limited SSH and custom domains. What I'm missing is native Go support. It only supports CGI. No process manager. No reverse proxy. Do you know a good/better hosting setup for Laravel, Go or both at roughly this price?

    @Namecheap After 10 hours of outage you managed to get your systems online just in time to send me my monthly bill. Not even a credit for the downtime, how generous

  • DavidSilvaSmith

    @Namecheap when I used openclaw I used a different DNS service that had API/console access, I forget and I could delegate permissions to it. Worked great, but I couldn't switch from ya'll :)

    Update: 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.

    Toyin Omotoso (@toyinomotoso) reported

    @victorydchair Or maybe Namecheap isn't for beginners. I have been using Namecheap since 2011 and I don't have all these issues you stated.

  • Lorncat
    Lauren (@Lorncat) reported

    @NamecheapCEO Support team at NameCheap is saying they don’t have an ETA for remaining users. In response to whether this would take weeks/months, they kept saying “It may be restored much sooner; we simply don't have a specific timeframe to provide at the moment.” So possibly years too

  • verobendarg
    Veronica B. (@verobendarg) reported

    @Namecheap Our dedicated servers are still down!!! According to your news they should be working but they are not. I have been working with customer support for 2 and a half hours now and no answers yet!

  • lightwaxx
    Ken Ber (@lightwaxx) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap I've been a user of your services for more than a decade and usually things are ok but when they are not, they really are not. Support, security and redundancy should be improved.

  • okwudilicanice_
    CANICE 👾 (@okwudilicanice_) reported

    The 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.

  • rigid_river_MT
    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.

    @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap All my sites went down RIP. But I still love namecheap. This isn't their fault.
