Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@hectorivand @Namecheap @Cloudflare that's basically what I want, half my inbox is stuff I never agreed to
-
Milan Jovanović (@mjovanovictech) reportedIs Namecheap still down?
-
thedreammaker.eth💹🧲 (@crichcrypto) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Seems my website is down again!
-
Jeff(The Human) ∞♓🇲🇽🇬🇱🇻🇪🇵🇸🇺🇦 (@jeffchao228) reported@420GHz @Namecheap I know this, but apparently the Porn Bots trying to advertise Porn Cam links seems to have been halted right now as I've not seen any of those bots on here, wonder if this means the "Stripchat" bots are using the service for their Cyber Crime activity and may have overloaded it?
-
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.

Cap-EO 👨🏾💻 (@EOEboh) reportedThe way namecheap was down yesterday is scary.. we might start seeing more elongated downtimes like this

Alex (@AlexejKirillov) reported@mwzd @MichaelCyger You'll always find companies that were successful no matter the TLD. Money will be made on these TLDs, but it will be the owners of the TLD, then maybe 0.1% of those who get their hands on the perfect span the dots, and the rest will just be rinsed. Let's just use the Namecheap list, with "Power" as the brand name - or you can just use any other Keyword (I like "Open" to make it fun as well) for that matter. In vast majority of cases it will not form a "span the dot" or "domain hack" brand. Are they all branding their company "Power" and the TLD doesn't matter? If yes, and you're marketing as "Power" only, imagine the marketing $$$ waste Are they all branding as Power+respective TLD? If yes, how much money will it take to change decades of human habit and behaviour to re-educate your customer, so they remember the full domain? And how much free traffic will you generate for Power+TLD․com and the waste of $$$ in the process power․aid power․arc power․asi power․brain power․clone power․craft power․den power․did power․droid power․fab power․flux power․folio power․forge power․foundry power․gate power․grid power․intel power․intelligence power․kit power․lab power․lens power․lift power․logic power․maker power․mart power․matrix power․mesh power․mod power․ops power․path power․scan power․sense power․shift power․ship power․sync power․synth power․sys power․trek power․view power․wave

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.

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.
-
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.
-
Melanie S Reed (@MelanieSReed) reportedAlso, NameCheap appears to have restored all service at this point. The "significant outage" was due to a cooling system failure at the RadiusDC: Phoenix data center. Ah, those data centers...again.
-
Shriyans Sudhi (@ss0x00) reported@hahwul I use @Porkbun and namecheap - I had a few billing issues with cloudflare (none of the payment methods worked)
-
shon.vibes (@shonvibes) reported@Namecheap Apparently with namecheap's new terrible interface you cannot set up a default font for all of your emails. Those of us who run businesses often choose to do this so that message font aligns with the vibe of our company. Now, you have to manually do it in every email.
-
Alexis Lanetti (@Lanetti) reported@andyyen Same issue as namecheap?
-
MrrrDaisy (@mrrrdaisy) reportedDoes @Namecheap have plans to reimburse its users for the loss or it’s just gonna be one of those we don’t care customer service? Cos there was no announcement, no update. Nothing at all.
-
Richard Kirkendall (@namecheapceo123) reported@a_shimanski @Namecheap Sorry about that and I agree, we could have postponed this until next week especially after the recent outage.
-
365krypto.x (@365krypto) reported@agent144x Daaaaannng I'm late to the party. I should of known when they did a survey, it was real godaddy focused. I've been 365krypto.x for so long do I hang it up? The quiet transition, on how they did it, hurts the most to us day 1s. Now they are web2, I use namecheap
-
Abdi (@UTDAbdisa) reported@Negusnati @d4m1n I still have to respect the hustle. I think namecheap was down for some reason

Dusyant kumar (@Dusyantkmr) reportedDay 5: Building in Public 🙌🏻 If you want to start a startup in 2026, the cost of building has never been lower. Claude = coding ($20/mo) GPT API = AI features (~$20/mo) Supabase = backend (Free) Vercel = deployment (Free) Namecheap = domain (~$12/yr) Stripe/Dodopayments = payments (2.9%/transaction) GitHub = version control (Free) Resend = emails (Free) ProductBridge = feedback (Free) Clerk = auth (Free) Cloudflare = DNS (Free) PostHog = analytics (Free) Sentry = error tracking (Free) Upstash = Redis (Free) Pinecone = vector DB (Free) You can get surprisingly far with ~$40/month.

Adtastic Hosting (@Adtastic) reported@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.

amar (@liftplaycode) reported@viveksb007 Namecheap If by conversion you mean tricking the customer to pay more then it probably works
-
Sesy Ai (@Sesy_Agency) reported@Namecheap I have the NC-GPA-2874 Ticket, but I Still Don't have a solution. I've spent 1.5 hrs on this, and there's still no fix. Can you please expedite this?
-
NestFrog (@NestFrog) reported@Namecheap ssl reseller api service still not work
-
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.
-
Jak (@jakcater) reported@NamecheapCEO @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Please tell me when emails received during outage will come through.

Opeyemi Gbemiro (@O_Gbemiro) reportedIs Namecheap still having an issue?
-
Andy Rowe @399 (@andyrowe) reported@shadilayvision @Namecheap Just speculating about the 8 hour outage with conflicting rumors. Had me wondering about ransomware but it actually was a cooling issue with their Phoenix data center.
-
Hamid Mousavi (@hamid2108) reported@richardnavanda @Namecheap Yeah, seriously. They’ve put us through hell since yesterday. 😑 Our VPS went down, came back with issues, and even now one of our production websites is still offline. It’s been a complete nightmare.
-
Vance Lucas (@vlucas) reported@dh405 @Namecheap Yeah. Long outage.

Kevin Guaman (@KCG3D) reportedi genuinely did not get the "hype" for this AI assistant called Instinct. if you have Codex or Claude, you can technically do everything it does. BUT, the problem is you need to download an app to your machine, make sure you got data/wi-fi, ask Computer Use to get it done, etc. Instinct just turned off auto renewal in Namecheap for a website for me. my first WOW moment was that it has it's own Vault, asked me for my password (like 1Password) and just got **** done for me. i don't know if i fully trust it yet, but it got it done over iMessage, accurately, in less than a minute, and sent a screenshot.
