  • QuieroSats Quiero Sats ⚡ (@QuieroSats) reported

    @Namecheap Love that y'all are using @BtcpayServer, but when are you going to add lightning support? You can do that with BTCpay, I'm sure you won't have any issues with inbound liquidity.

  • ArewaParrot Zainab 💍 (@ArewaParrot) reported

    @ShehuAwwal @HostGator I guess I have to follow your suggestion. The domains are all active. It's hurts me so much going through this. Gross extortion. I have over 26 domains with them. My favorite was @Namecheap and I have never had any issues with them

  • manzwebdesigns Bud Manz (@manzwebdesigns) reported

    So, apparently, @Namecheap is having issues with not only their website, but also their SSL certs?

  • fuzed_ Homer J Simpson (@fuzed_) reported

    @Namecheap your website seems to be down. Also I'm trying to register a .kitchen domain, but can only do so for a year, can you advise?

  • Zacinquarantine Zachinquarantine 🦇🔊 (@Zacinquarantine) reported

    @Namecheap tech support scam: /contacthp.info

  • tcp_ack Hien Phan (@tcp_ack) reported

    @Namecheap Do you have dedicated email address for that? I think support@ is general email for support team.

  • Herzfurdiesache Rusty Shackelford (@Herzfurdiesache) reported

    @stevanzetti @Namecheap If he had the courage of his convictions he'd have no problem admitting the domains in question are indeed his. But he doesn't. The more I learn about this guy the more I absolutely hate him.

  • apphancer Martin (@apphancer) reported

    Why go under maintenance for a better user experience without notifying clients first, @Namecheap? Email is also down

  • BalariTheZombie Alejandro Balari (@BalariTheZombie) reported

    It’s 10:11AM and I can’t access my damn email because @Namecheap thought it was a good idea to do maintenance on a core service during core business hours…..

  • Sam_Mutahi Sam Mutahi | Personal Finance Writer (@Sam_Mutahi) reported

    @Namecheap @fuzed_ Huh...First time seeing Namecheap website down this long

  • SameeHsn Samee Hassan (@SameeHsn) reported

    Hi, @Namecheap can we please sort out the issue with your upstream provider now it's been a while. I need to transfer a domain to Namecheap @NamecheapCEO

  • _t_o_o_r_a_j_ T o o r a j - ₿⚡ ∞/21M (@_t_o_o_r_a_j_) reported

    @saoulidisg I have been with namecheap for a few years now. Sold service, great deals, and a very good support team. I don't know anything about Moniker.

  • jimbaldwin123 Vincent Vandinsky (@jimbaldwin123) reported

    @epikfailsnippet @Namecheap Oh ****, just when I took all my domains off of GoDaddy for his trophy hunting.

  • undefeatedmatt Matt the Eternal Guy (@undefeatedmatt) reported

    @stevanzetti @Namecheap This seems bad @Namecheap

  • maffsie ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ ⋌( #ACAB #BLM! ) (@maffsie) reported

    very excited to find out why namecheap is currently experiencing Extreme Turmoil in the form of everything being down and unexplained unscheduled maintenance

  • germaannr Germán. (@germaannr) reported

    @srjahir32 @Namecheap Hello, did you got this issue solved? I am going through same situation with @Namecheap today. All my data from all domains hosted is missing.

  • Mamotingoe_ (They/Them) 🦄 (@Mamotingoe_) reported

    @Namecheap 's customer support is hella efficient imo

  • jtrombley90 Josh Trombley (@jtrombley90) reported

    Active #CONTI Cobalt Strike server. @Namecheap can you make this actors day bad? hxxps[:]datasecuritytoday[.]com:757/securiday

  • wilcochris Chris Wilcox (@wilcochris) reported

    @Namecheap live chat is such a chore. Explained 5 times what the issue is and on the 6th time they finally got it. Had to repeat everything. Definitely not going to renew with them!

  • Ken03819333 Ken (@Ken03819333) reported

    @manzwebdesigns @Namecheap What? How do you know? Or what’s the issue?

  • ThrowAw70207174 Joseph C (@ThrowAw70207174) reported

    @Namecheap It's very frustrating when you want to do an investigation because in most cases when I create a ticket the abusive content doesn't get taken down and it is a lot of extra work

  • Shenaz67637270 Shenaz (@Shenaz67637270) reported

    @Namecheap @SpencerCampbeli @spookelly Same problem I have had. Website said 39.99 and they took £198 can you help?

  • FrednOllie Fred & Ollie (@FrednOllie) reported

    @Namecheap There's no excuse for you to have an outage of this magnitude.

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @shadisco Hello Sharon, I'm sorry to hear that you are having such issues. For generic TLDs (.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, etc.), you have a period of about 30 days at Namecheap after the actual expiration date during which you can still renew the domain at the regular rate.

  • MCoetus I am dead (d3d) (@MCoetus) reported

    I am going to write a script to auto-parse these SMS scammers so I can verify to report. Every domain we take down saves a lot of people from getting scammed, especially the elderly, and when registrars like Namecheap are ready to help... there is no excuse not to act.🪲🐞🔫

  • WobblyWiFi Matthew (@WobblyWiFi) reported

    @Sam_Mutahi @Namecheap @fuzed_ Goes down at the worst of times! (When I need to access my domains)

  • _andrempc André Costa (@_andrempc) reported

    @Namecheap Well one thing is the website going on maintenance, other thing is the email service currently being unavailable without any justification. My business email is hosted here and we can't receive/send emails to clients and partners. At least shed some clarity about this.

  • BradleyChatha Bradley Chatha (@BradleyChatha) reported

    Welp, I was looking for reasons to move away from Namecheap anyway. Today's hours long outage when I really need to change my DNS settings certainly is convincing.

  • HElectoid HElectoid (@HElectoid) reported

    gone are the days when @Namecheap offered quality web hosting service. what they offer now is trash. and we can only hope for a good competitor. I made an attempt to change my registrar, the system rejected it. only for me to be told today that the domain name has me transferd

  • tuxpanik Julien Mongenet (@tuxpanik) reported

    @jtrombley90 @Namecheap Interesting that this Registrar answers and acts efficiently via Twitter while it never replies for phising takedowns requests 🤔🙄
