Namecheap Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • dww_www David (@dww_www) reported

    @vikasprogrammer @xyz I'd chase down @namecheap given they're the registrar.

  • _undanfined D a n and 1738 others (@_undanfined) reported

    @Namecheap I don't think specifically the UUID is causing the issue, pasing the UUID then the rest of the string has the same effect of tab crash/unresponsiveness.

  • ahtavarasmus ahtavarasmus (@ahtavarasmus) reported

    If you have ever tried to get with linux and namecheap you know what hell feels like. @namecheap , your service is ridiculous. Your service and docs has more gotchas than C language. What if you started by linking articles in a tutorial together as a start.

  • edgarbrignoni TweetMe 🐳 (@edgarbrignoni) reported

    @Namecheap Thanks for your support. I change DNS settings on my machine. It looks like that did the trick.

  • Ogcsn Somto 🦇🔊 (@Ogcsn) reported

    @MightyDylanK @GoDaddy GoDaddy is the worst Domain and Hosting service provider. I always recommend @Namecheap . You don’t even need to use your credit card to make payments since you can fund with crypto. Handy customer service support, Fast servers and cheaper plans. A+ service imo.

  • chiefenoch Chief Enoch (@chiefenoch) reported

    @AnneMossYeys Go with namecheap @Namecheap , reliable services, 24/7 customer service support, easy setup for DNS to cloudflare and generally zero complain from you in the next 7years 👍🏽

  • dcblogdev David Carr (@dcblogdev) reported

    @MrSimonBennett they are indeed terrible, most of the time DNS changes don't take effect and you have to wait days for support to make changes. Never had any problems using Namecheap, they're so much better!

  • _undanfined D a n and 1738 others (@_undanfined) reported

    @Namecheap Trying to add a DNS TXT Record for mail where the host starts with a UUID seems to keep crashing the browser tab on paste, is this a known issue ? Example format: 35096a65-3151-4d00-a5b1-534aeaa074fa._domainkey.example.org.

  • RohitGulam Rohit Gulam - 134🔥 (@RohitGulam) reported

    @michael_kove Yeah self-guided is great when it's a lack of knowledge from the user’s end The problem comes when it's something that a human must do For example, if you want to transfer ownership in Namecheap or something of high value like that (on payment processors maybe)

  • SpinDemRecords Spin Dem Records (@SpinDemRecords) reported

    @Namecheap need support with a domain and email, was auto renewed through an expired card

  • BitcoinWallet_ BitcoinerGeek (@BitcoinWallet_) reported

    @Namecheap Hi support, could you investigate these Phishing cases? Ticket ID's: #ZGJ-474-87643, #GHI-846-43819. Thanks.

  • _jimjay jimmy (@_jimjay) reported

    @akanbitomjoe I don’t think I can stop using Namecheap because of their excellent customer service

  • samdragosa ✦ sam🌿 (@samdragosa) reported

    Namecheap can **** right off I have never had so many problems updating my blog and/or web site than I have with using their services. It keeps giving me error after error for security and my firewall in my server keeps blocking me lmao 👎🏻😤

  • BTC_de_Blog 🚀Christoph Bergmann🚀 (@BTC_de_Blog) reported

    @Namecheap Oh, there is no issue, neither with my wallet nor bitpay. Afaik users of bitpay can select if they accept unconfirmed txns. Since you can simply del my account if I try to cheat, I have way more to lose than you, so there is 0 risk in unconfirmed txns.

  • Orbisius Orbisius.com (@Orbisius) reported

    @Namecheap @chiefenoch yeah, good service but please better integrate the support section so it doesn't require logging in again

  • monsterjeep Monsterjeep (@monsterjeep) reported

    @Namecheap Okay, if I have found a possible issue, where would I go to report it?

  • ahtavarasmus ahtavarasmus (@ahtavarasmus) reported

    If you have ever tried to get with linux and namecheap you know what hell feels like. @namecheap, your service is ridiculous. Your service and docs has more gotchas than C language. What if you started by linking articles that follow we need together as a start.

  • qkittle Quintin Kittle (@qkittle) reported

    including my cloud based software and reference service, which is my sole means to provide my services. I am a very small, veteran owned, architectural firm and Namecheap is in the background licking its chops believing that they hold a golden ticket evidenced

  • ahtavarasmus ahtavarasmus (@ahtavarasmus) reported

    @Namecheap i got it working finally so i don't need help but you could try making your tutorials a little clearer as i said

  • MilaChervenkova мιla 🍩 (@MilaChervenkova) reported

    @Namecheap any known problems with the VPS hosting at this moment? It seems like all of my websites are donw.

  • mrtari64 •€mtar¥• (@mrtari64) reported

    @Namecheap @manifestare On September 23, 2022, OFAC issued Iran General License (GL) D-2 to further support the provision of communication tools to ordinary Iranians and assist in their efforts to resist repressive internet censorship and surveillance tools deployed by the Iranian government.

  • meisshaily Shailendra Kumaar (@meisshaily) reported

    @Namecheap But that's the issue that we have raised for the past 6 months. You have changed the email address which was on the order summary to something we don't know. Please check the case.

  • waqas_ahmed09 Waqas Ahmed (@waqas_ahmed09) reported

    @Namecheap Hello team I contact you around 10 days before here as well as your live chat support system and again same issue i am facing my website worked only for 10days now it showed me 403 server error. Please do let me know if you guys cant handle so i ll change the hosting .

  • meisshaily Shailendra Kumaar (@meisshaily) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO @ehsanali_md I am sure you have. This ticket is on priority for last 6 months as per you guys. But the reality is that our website is down. You have changed the email address and the name server details from the account by yourself. And now you are asking us million questions #NamecheapSucks

  • ehsanali_md Ehsan Ali (@ehsanali_md) reported

    @Namecheap @meisshaily @NamecheapCEO NO, THE TICKET IS NOT CLOSED YOU NEED TO HELP ME GET ACCESS TO MY LOGIN YOUR EMAIL RESPONSES ARE SO ANNOYING. YOU DONT SEEM TO HAVE ANY CUSTOMER SERVICE MINDSET

  • JoniSweet Joni Sweet (@JoniSweet) reported

    @nontech_techie You have stolen my content (including text and photos) and infringed upon my copyright. Remove this content from your site immediately. I have also notified your service provider, @Namecheap, that you are infringing on my copyright.

  • BitcoinWallet_ BitcoinerGeek (@BitcoinWallet_) reported

    @Namecheap Hi support, i reported a phishing website months ago and still nothing happend, it is sadly still online. Please investigate, Ticket ID: #UBD-240-83428

  • akanbitomjoe Tomiwa Akanbi | Marketing 👑 (@akanbitomjoe) reported

    I stopped using Namecheap. They have an excellent support team and have crazy discounts for first time users. But if you're just starting out as a blogger in Nigeria, I won't advise you to use them. Unless you're RICH. And don't use Whogohost. It's cheap but you will cry

  • rozuja Rodrigo Zuluaga (@rozuja) reported

    @Namecheap What is happening with the payments.. Trying to pay a Grace domain.... Still have time to renew it, have tried 4 credits cads and even paypal isn't letting me renew the domain. URGENT HELP!

  • X13Trader Matador Trader (@X13Trader) reported

    @PJSmith been using namecheap for over 15 years - never had a problem with them.
