    @za_icon The customer service is better than namecheap?

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO 1. [#AAN-494-32131]: Emails not saving in the webmail 2.[#NJT-589-99430]: C panel is down These are the tickets which created in the month of August, back and forth emails but one simple step gives a solution but that too I need to show them what was the issue

  • christina_olii Christina O 🇺🇦 (@christina_olii) reported

    @KumbhaTech @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Hi! Christina from the Hosting Product team here. Let me apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with our service. I'll make sure your ticket is being prioritized and taken care of.

  • journich journich (@journich) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO I just got a reply (again) from your support team who said “Let me specify that there is no reply from the Upstream provider about your request yet” - So I am expected to just wait for months until your up-steam provider decides to reply? Why are you using this company?

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Even after fixing the IP cpanel was not working and again the blame was with the end user until I need to prove it strongly. I have all the records to say your people are not technically fit. Then why should i take your service when i have option to switch

  • juanssee JCS (@juanssee) reported

    @Savethedoctor @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap They contacted me half an hour after this post and they gave me access to Cpanel where i could fix the problem updating wordpress and some plugins i have outdated.

  • Juwecom Juwe (@Juwecom) reported

    @Develch It depends on so many factors: downtime, cost, customer support etc. You may want to consider Namecheap, Bluehost, and GoDaddy. Namecheap is cheap and could give you something similar to GoDaddy.

  • journich journich (@journich) reported

    nearly 7 weeks to get a domain updated and no ETA on how much longer @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO - Please get this sorted its so bad. #VAX-637-44500

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Hi Richard, I want you to jump into this issue as this is a major escalation and your technical team is incapable of providing the ETA for this. @Namecheap is going to worsen these days and almost frequently I am raising the ticket. [#AQC-621-62273]:

  • singhdotin tldking.eth | tldking.com | .tldking/ (@singhdotin) reported

    @rahulsutariya Thanks for the help @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap …. now no one’s able to buy names. What a clusterfk

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    Anyone, please suggest any good #hosting providers with less complaint and good SLA apart from @Namecheap. I am very frustrated with this service. Either I get emails issue or websites hosted will be down. Every month I am coming up with new issues and their SLA is very bad

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @Namecheap I have escalated this to the CEO @NamecheapCEO of your company and I am going to make this in a public forum. Sorry if I am rude, but I will take the necessary steps to prevent other users from signing into @Namecheap

  • BillBlake2018 Bill Blake (@BillBlake2018) reported

    @ninanet @Namecheap @GaryM03062 Ouch. I'm glad I wasn't at their customer desk service right about then!

  • MichaelJNovotny Michael Novotny (@MichaelJNovotny) reported

    I want to purchase a .ai domain, but Namecheap stated that I cannot through them. Have you run into this issue before? Where do I go to purchase it? Godaddy is like a 50% markup for the same domain...any suggestions?

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Not only this issue but even I was also sitting late at night in India pinging all your server IPs to allocate one IP for my 3 servers purchased since the website hosted in the servers was blocked and the same blame was thrown at to end user.

  • catscandrive Steven (@catscandrive) reported

    @evolmk @Namecheap @sweetastandy Did you ever figure this out? I'm having same issue like a year later.

  • Savethedoctor Save Doctor Who (@Savethedoctor) reported

    @juanssee @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap How long did it take them to reply? Anyone ever get support for Namebase? 1000s hung up in auctions that ended and are stuck in reveal with the “error contact support” on their discord and sent in via namebase support?

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO I have made a strong reply to the support email. I have many servers like a big rock, square brothers and GoDaddy I have never faced any issues with these servers and they work smoothly. You are just one among them that it and it's just corrupted

  • juanssee JCS (@juanssee) reported

    @NamecheapCEO Im a Customer of @namecheap and i have one of my hosting Accounts suspended for more o”than 12 hours. The problem is a malfunction of a plugin. I cant access to Cpanel to fix the issue. All my clients want to leave and get another hosting company. So sad..

  • domaihns DomaiHNS/ (@domaihns) reported

    @AlessioCrypto @NamebaseHQ @NamecheapCEO Those NB failures exists since 2020. I lost many TLDs thanks to Nb... Easy to use but if you cares your auctions is the worst option ever. Even after namecheap bought NB any important improvements has been filled.

  • jpaulhendricks J. Paul Hendricks (@jpaulhendricks) reported

    @Travis_Jamison Congrats! I’m periodically forced to wade into their zone of dysfunction and corporate craphood. Recently took delivery of a name using that account.. always relieved to transfer out. w/Namecheap for 15+ yrs; never been disappointed. My first registrar in the 90s: Directnic.

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Hi, Very much Frustrated with your service. The emails were working fine and suddenly they got stuck and all I am getting is there is no proper subject. I am not sure what they mean by proper subject. Just sharing a link is not going to help me, i want a fix in place

  • christina_olii Christina O 🇺🇦 (@christina_olii) reported

    @KumbhaTech @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO I agree, that's not the level of service we strive to provide. I will make sure it doesn't happen again. Sorry again for all the stress you experienced.

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO All the tickets which I mentioned before are fixed, now this is the new issue that needs to be fixed in September month. Don't know how many issues I will get this month

  • tylersmithfilms Tyler (@tylersmithfilms) reported

    Yo @Namecheap when are you going to crack down on the spam emails i've reported that you continue to ignore? Like ******* nuke the sites..

  • HeroOfTheSprite Hero of the Sprites (@HeroOfTheSprite) reported

    @streamlabs am trying to cancel the namecheap renewal but every time I click on the link in the email it gives me a 500 error page

  • christina_olii Christina O 🇺🇦 (@christina_olii) reported

    @KumbhaTech @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Thanks for all the details. Yes, that may be the cause for your emails being rejected. Unfortunately, such cases happen and we can't do much to prevent them as one spammer on the server affects all the users. But we try fixing those issues ASAP.

  • KumbhaTech Hariharan. V (@KumbhaTech) reported

    @Namecheap hahaha, joke of the month @NamecheapCEO. I believe you are the owner of @Namecheap. Is it so? Can you take ownership of this issue I am getting irrelevant answers?. Being in a professional field no one sends emails without a subject hahaha

  • BillBlake2018 Bill Blake (@BillBlake2018) reported

    @ninanet @Namecheap @GaryM03062 Hopefully they'll have the decency to grovel a little for their outage. :) I used to run small ISPs back in the dialup age. If you'd called us, you'd have got my tech or my boss, who could solve the problem or would get me right on it. That's not the world anymore.....
