Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Orpheus (@Orpheus_ui) reported@Namecheap our services have been down for over 7 hours now. this prolonged downtime is directly disrupting our operations, client deliverables, and people's jobs.
-
Victorydm | Ads Expert (@victorydchair) reported@Akpanthankgod_ Namecheap has been trash for a long time I've used them for years If it isn't outage, it'll be hacks on your websites
-
Lauren Fagen (@Lorncat) reported@Namecheap is still down and @NamecheapCEO is not speaking to whether it’s possible to migrate to @GoDaddy at this time. When we regain access to our livelihoods (if their servers come back up), can we set up a mass migration discount for NameCheap survivors moving to GoDaddy?
-
Max Joolean (@daniel_l_long) reportedThis namecheap being down is crazy
-
TheFetom (@thefetom) reportedWait, NAMECHEAP IS DOWN, since when?, cause I already decided my ad was starting to annoy me .
-
Patrick || Growth OPs (@patrickumeobika) reportedTrue. My problem with Hostingner is that they double your cost back to back except you buy their long term plan And you pay for bandwidth (aka traffic). For Namecheap hacks... Just avoid nulled plugins as a whole. Especially on the shared hosting plan.
-
InvestChannels (@investchannels) reported@XPeterKappes @SpaceshipStatus That doesn’t help, we need solution. I have been using Namecheap for 8 years obviously I trust the company but server has been down for more than 12 hours now and it's costing us a lot.
-
Dani (@irondanilive) reported@Namecheap @solomonony1 How the hell you’re not able to solve this problem faster??? You affect businesses drastically!!!!! And you keep silent!!! You can’t be reached! You don’t have support! No one is talking or answering!!!!
-
Ceasar (@Emperor_Czar) reported@Namecheap This service disruption has gone on for too long. Now I have to keep explaining why I choose @Namecheap
-
Awaken_Dreams (@Shoaib33187129) reported@Namecheap How much time it will take to restore the service
-
D (@5dolladill) reported@Namecheap hurry up and fix your site. This is unacceptable
-
luna (@ImLunaHey) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap i still dont get how one datacenter going down caused their whole service to go offline..
-
TEJ (@sartejt) reported@NamecheapCEO Moving all my domains to Cloudflare. 10+ year customer with Namecheap but this is the final straw. Sayonara.
-
Tech | Amithy (@amithy_one) reportedA cooling failure shouldn't equal a domain hostage situation. Hardware fails, we get it. But locking us out of our domain panel so we couldn't even migrate our DNS elsewhere cost us a full day of transactions. Fix the single point of failure. @Namecheap
-
The Connecter Wallet (@deficonnecter) reported@NamecheapCEO Hello? @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap it’s 4:20pm ET. I believe you should be kind enough to give at least a crap about the customers and update them either way. An update it’s better than NO update.
-
Toheeb Yusuf (@TByusuff) reported@Akpanthankgod_ @victorydchair Namecheap wey inject all my websites with virus in 2024 then asked me to pay for a plugin to clear it.. Deleted everything. And moved to Hostmaria No problems since then
-
Graeme Davis (@GraemeDavis) reported@NamecheapCEO My email came back a few minutes ago, about 1.12am London. It’s probably all there. I feel a sense of relief as it has been a problem (and I’m now going to be working to respond to urgent stuff). I realise a lot of work has gone on at namecheap and thanks for this.
-
PaakSer (@paakser) reported@NamecheapCEO I understand that service disruptions can happen to any hosting company. While it is frustrating, I appreciate your diligent efforts to get everything back up and running. Hopefully, Namecheap can use this experience to implement additional backup contingencies for the future.
-
Simon Tiplady (@stiplady) reportedAmazed at how many people complaining about the NameCheap/PhoenixNAP/RadiusDC outage expect an entire DC to just get turned back on with the flick of a switch.
-
ْ (@keysome) reportedI’ve got multiple sites down. #namecheap c/ @spaceship outrage has hit my biz!
-
Victorydm | Ads Expert (@victorydchair) reported@Akpanthankgod_ No one should be using namecheap is 2026 though Hostinger way better! More reliable, better support, better interface and usability as well
-
Michael Obeta (@mikaelobeta) reported@hhjoffical @Namecheap @GoogleWorkspace It's crazy 😧 I haven't been able to receive messages/respond to support 😭😭
-
MrJonnyBatch (@MrJonnyBatch) reported@Namecheap Emails and website have both been down for around 8 hours or more now. But I can see your website is back up and running, when will all services be back up and running?
