Namecheap Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@appdevbyamitesh @Namecheap their Phoenix datacenter lost cooling, so they shut servers down to protect the hardware. domains, hosting and email all went with it. business email was down most of the day
-
Onyema One (@MbadiweOnyema) reported@thatdavidoc @doctorbeau @NamecheapCEO There's nothing cheap or unserious about Namecheap. There has been server downtimes in the history of all major cloud hosting services. And this one has never happened in years.
-
Timothy Conrad (@securecipher) reported@NamecheapCEO @NamecheapCEO I sure hope site reliability and redundancy is in the immediate design plans of Namecheap. It is hard to understand why you have so many of your services in one site with PhoenixNAP. The U.S. is filled with cloud companies that would help service your needs.
-
Rumeysa Gelgi (@RumeysaGelgi) reported@NamecheapCEO I’ve relied on Namecheap/PrivateEmail for my professional contact for five years, so today’s outage is concerning. Could you please confirm there has been no data loss, especially in PrivateEmail? I have five years of important business emails and cannot manually check them all.
-
Generic human (@genericish) reported@Namecheap Mail still down for me
-
Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@hectorivand @Namecheap @Cloudflare that's basically what I want, half my inbox is stuff I never agreed to
-
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?
-
Pizza Steve (@blackkracken) reportedIs anyone elses namecheap reseller hosting extremely slow? I bet they have the bandwidth turn down...
-
B Diesel (@BDiesel6) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Had some emails come in. The volume of emails seems within typical range but on low side. High stakes issue where can not ask other party whether they sent an email. But also can not miss one if they did. Can you say with absolute certainty that all emails were preserved?
-
shon.vibes (@shonvibes) reported@Namecheap Namecheap's new interface for Private Email doesn't let you set up conversation mode 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.
-
Alex | The Geeknd (@WebDevLex) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Ofc it’s unpredictable but definitely should be planned for. A single datacenter took down everything? First of all.. how? And what if that DC blew up instead of just malfunctioning chillers.. those excuses don’t really fly anymore
-
Wisdom Uche Ijika (@ceotokentoolhub) reportedWell done to @namecheap and @namecheapceo for restoring services after the Phoenix datacenter power and cooling failure. Please publish the RCA, build cross-region failover, and isolate support/status systems. One facility must never take the entire platform down again.
-
MageGate Games | MageGate.com (@mage_gate) reportedOur email service has been restored after yesterday's @Namecheap outage. We're not sure whether all emails sent during the outage were successfully delivered. If you emailed us on August 13 and haven't heard back by the end of August 14, please resend your email. Thanks!
-
PixelPioneer (@PixelPioneerOnX) reported@PaulMugenda @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap I have same issue. All php pages give 503.
-
Old Charter (@OldCharterExp) reported@Dynadot @ZPEdisclosure Is it possible for my wife to move he domain from Namecheap while it's down? I see a LOT of people freaking out that had crypto wallets tied to emails and websites they were hosting, what a total 💩show!
-
Ken Ber (@lightwaxx) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap I've been a user of your services for more than a decade and usually things are ok but when they are not, they really are not. Support, security and redundancy should be improved.
-
Don MAGA (@DonMAGA2024) reported@TwistedFocus99 @Namecheap Cost effective. And mostly stable with responsive customer support. While we've had systems issues before, this was a major **** up.
-
Barely There (@YonnyWiden) reported@badrDev_ @Namecheap our website still down, 15 hours later.
-
xyz.xyz (@xyz) reportedLearn more about this @namecheap customer by following @miodotxyz. #AIAgents #Slack #AIM
-
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?

Gary Kriebel (@GaryKriebel) reported12 hours later (at least) and email is still down. That’s ok. We didn’t really need the important information to get our kid moved into college. @Namecheap #PrivateEmail

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.
-
Toyin Omotoso (@toyinomotoso) reportedEveryone is badmouthing Namecheap because one of their servers went down just once in 26 years. All companies experience things like this at some point. It has happened to Google, Facebook and other giants. When it becomes worrisome is if it happens often.
-
SetraHost (@SetraHost) reported@alexneyret @Namecheap Well said! Datacenter issues are out of a hosting companies control when collocating. While downtime is never fun, these things can happen unfortunately & from what I’ve seen, NameCheap communicated throughout it all & even sent staff onsite to expedite the recovery process.
-
spencer :) (@spencerpauly) reportedThis morning I asked codex: "move my site to vercel to save costs". It asked me to login to namecheap for my dns records. "Ohh, move the nameservers to cloudflare too". 1 hour later - both are migrated.
-
J (@Jered1985) reported@Namecheap @dvolsysop My email still not working I need a solution asap , I cannot longer wait
-
🪖 (@hiddentoni) reported@Namecheap my website is still down please!!!!
-
Biz-find (@bizfindonline) reportedIts them Eclipses I'm telling you! They cause all sorts of mayhem all over the world, this week couldnt pay bills online , money went out of my account, Namecheap servers crashed leaving 5 odd million sites down a good 12 hours, what happened to you?

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?
