oscar (@oscargaske) reported@RiverKhan I've used namecheap for a while and their UI is definitely ****, butttt if it's that bad why not switch to Vercel/something prettier?
-
Alessandro Bogliari (@alexeidos) reported@Namecheap someone is impersonating our company using a domain that is very similar to ours. They are scamming influencers while using our company name. I reported this to your abuse team 7 days ago. no response. Can someone get back to us ASAP and take this domain down?
-
Sir William Codey Best (@bbest12g) reported@dhh don't use namecheap they'll try and get a piece of that **** off money or w.e with a price hike after a few years.
-
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?

Emon Datta (@emonuxui) reported@buildAgoat @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Hopefully support can trace the new outbound path and IP reputation.

Param Siddharth Manu (𑂣𑂩𑂧) (@ParamSiddharth) reported@tapasadhikary @Namecheap I migrated to MS 365 due to similar issues.
-
Saul Flores Jr. (@SaulFloresJr) reportedJust bought a couple more domains while I’m still negotiating the sale of an older one. Time to build something new. This one is more physics related. No idea what it becomes yet. I’ve just been going down a rabbit hole of light, electromagnetics, hardware, space, and a bunch of things I barely understood a few weeks ago. Only one way to find out where it goes. Keep building. Thanks @Namecheap

thedreammaker.eth💹🧲 (@crichcrypto) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Seems my website is down again!

SakuraAAH (@harunosakuraka) reported@Porkbun @spaceship @Namecheap 5/ The India Payment Problem 🇮🇳 Most top developer-recommended platforms (like Porkbun or Spaceship) offer great pricing but don't support native UPI. If your debit card lacks international enabling, your purchase will instantly fail. Don't let that stall your launch! Platforms that actually support UPI to lock down your name instantly: • GoDaddy India: Massive support for UPI, great initial promos, but watch out for intense checkout up-sells! • Hostinger India: Highly reliable local billing, excellent speeds, and clean UPI QR codes at checkout.

BetLegend (@BetLegend2025) reported@namecheapceo123 17 days locked out of my whole @Namecheap account. I reported a problem with ONE domain. You locked all 7 and every site on them. I withdrew the report Aug 24. Still locked. No reply, no timeline, no auth codes. ICANN case 01641788. Unlock me or let me transfer out.
-
Debra Isaacs Schafer (@DebraISchafer) reported@Namecheap Okay...immensely dislike your "new platform." Where are my previous folders? I had many of them - where are they!? How do you reduce the size of the e-mails horizontally to be able to quickly delete, forward, or respond? And your "help center" - where is live chat?
-
SakuraAAH (@harunosakuraka) reported@Porkbun @spaceship @Namecheap 3/ Secure free privacy Never pay an extra $10/year for "WHOIS Privacy Protection." Good registrars bundle this for free. Turn it on immediately to hide your phone number and email. If you don't, your phone will be flooded with spam within 60 seconds.

Eradicating illegal website (@JakawaEIWHunter) reported@spaceship @Namecheap domain reminder[.]me/mwttutama is registered with your service, please suspend it immediately.

Gregg (@EmpiricalFBA) reported@alijcar @Namecheap We're noticing issues again too
-
Mila Chervenkova 🍩 (@MilaChervenkova) reported@2whazzuup Transfer them to NameCheap. I used to be with GoDaddy and never again.
-
UE (@udayempire_) reportedman, has anyone else felt like logging into @Namecheap is the hardest task ever? I literally just created a new password, and it’s already telling me it’s wrong. almost everytime I login to this website I have to change the password even tho I save it in my bitwarden password manager.
-
Dodin Dodan Jr. (@pardiezzi) reported@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.
-
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?
-
Lauren (@Lorncat) reported@JulianPhoenix2 @NamecheapCEO He can’t do that. It’s too big of a loss and they would go bankrupt (ideal though — this company is a hazard to businesses, especially essential service ones). One solution is Namecheap credit which matches our reported losses, plus a split of his salary between us all.
-
Amanda Nevill (@NevillAmanda) reported@NubartEN @Namecheap @namecheap - the overhaul of the Privateemail browser is terrible. It doesn’t;t work on tablets - please can someone tell me when this is likely to be fixed !!!!!!!
-
Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported3/3 Unfortunately, Namecheap’s response has been to minimise the impact, hide behind what its systems recorded, and offer a token $10 credit. @NamecheapCEO — is this genuinely the level of accountability you believe Namecheap should demonstrate after a major outage?
-
ETHICAL JAY 🖥️ (@demon_hunterboy) reported@Namecheap Support team says another server issue
-
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.
-
Jorwhol (@jorwhol) reportedI use Namecheap to search for domains, but Cloudflare to register them. Poor ol’ Namecheap.
-
Camille Godwin (@RBKGRG) reported@Namecheap @NamecheapCEO You still have issues and you should be transparent about it. And the new format is horrible. You are touting it as improved but it adds nothing new and takes away everything that was so useful in the OX interface. Guess I'm changing providers after some good years.
-
Enoch W. Kabange | Content Strategist (@enoch_kabange) reported@asemota @amoodaniel_ people keep looking down on namecheap
-
CatWard (@Catzwitch) reported@Namecheap support is being absolutely impossible today!Shut down our domain & no matter that we gave them the credit card on file & other things, they won't help us get in to restore. won't even let us give them a card to turn it back on! do NOT use them for domain registry!
-
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.
