    Namecheap also had a power outage the other day... Interesting

    During the outage, emails were inaccessible and external senders received bounce-backs. I tested from Gmail and Yahoo. A client also received a bounce-back. Namecheap’s CEO @HilanKlein publicly acknowledged the email outage and said affected emails may be delayed. 2/4

    @Namecheap Namecheap is a truly terrible company. They charged me for the PrivateSSL service which is part of a hosting plan I was planning to cancel before the billing date. When I asked for a refund, they said the charge was non-refundable. It’s a rip-off.

    Namecheap was down for 15 hours yesterday. 5,000 servers. One datacenter. Zero redundancy. Here's what every website owner should check today 👇 1/3

    @NamecheapCEO 14+ hours of business email disruption. Emails bounced. Business impacted. Namecheap’s compensation? $10. Yes, $10. Does @Namecheap seriously believe this demonstrates accountability to a small business after a major infrastructure outage?

    @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?

  • ousher23

    @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Yes, major outage. A storm-triggered cooling system failure at the PhoenixNAP facility forced Namecheap to shut down over 5,000 servers to prevent hardware damage, though services are currently coming back online progressively.

    Apple passwords shows this morning that my account on @Namecheap seems to be leaked ? Is this related to nalecheap being down yesterday ?

    i 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.

    @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 :)

    @Namecheap 's new interface for Private Email doesn't let you set up conversations for the inbox. Are they insane?! This shows a total lack of regard for the time management of business owners who use your service, Namecheap. I bet YOUR email has conversation view. #namecheapdown

    🔴 Namecheap is DOWN. Was it hacked? No verified evidence of a cyberattack. Namecheap says the outage is linked to infrastructure issues at its Phoenix data center. 🔴 What happened 🔴 What’s affected 🔴 Why it matters We’re tracking the incident as it develops. #Namecheap #NamecheapDown

    @toyinomotoso Namecheap is actually terrible A good percentage of those who use them always complain of frequent hacks on their websites I voiced out my frustration two years ago after losing more than 10 domains to hacks I can't even account fro Turns out, many persons also experience same issues Namecheap setup process is also too manual, Most times you'll have to change DNS yourself if you get a sub domain You have to install SSL yourself and all Most new hosting platforms do all that for you without you touching anything On hostinger 3 clicks and you have your website ready to use

    @Namecheap has lost my business. Today was the last straw. I will never buy another domain from you scammy ************* in life. You add “premium domain” tax and gatekeep customers. I even got a capital letter “BANNED” for a domain I searched and then I just bought it through @Cloudflare for $11. After the BANNED thing, I searched another domain and it said “Premium Domain” and was priced at $100,000… I also bought that domain at Cloudflare for $11. That was the last straw. I’ve been a Namecheap customer for over 20 years. I am DONE. I’ll be transferring all of my domains to Cloudflare this week.
