-
Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported@Victual_Bro @Namecheap I just recently migrated my operations systems over to their VPS and it’s all down. Absolutely insane. How are those servers not cool enough to spin up by now? The longer this drags out, the less it makes sense. The CEO said temporary chillers on site being WERE installed
-
Dave (@DavidGetchel) reportedNamecheap being down for so long is ridiculous! Still having email issues.
-
PageWatcher (@osint42) reported🔴 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
-
Bill Hartzer (@bhartzer) reported@BeardedDale @Namecheap They could fail, but can be dealt with. For example, if you have access to the DNS then you can point it to another server if the web host goes down. If you don't have access to the registrar account where you manage DNS and host the site, then that's an issue.

Allan K. Koech, HSC (@allankoechke) reportedDang! Some of my domains never recovered from the @Namecheap downtime.

𝕘 𝕥 𝕨 𝕪 (@Gtwy) reported@doctorbeau @NamecheapCEO i am not trying to be combative, but you have 30k a day of liability risked against a single platform??? that isn't namecheap's fault. today's disaster aside, you should have been planning for when something like this happened. for the record i have hundreds of domains with namecheap and not a single one went down today... cause i don't have any single points of failure
-
Alex Johnson (@BeardedDale) reported@badrDev_ @Namecheap What are you going to do to eliminate single points of failure? It’s not only the responsibility of your service provider.
-
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.
-
ayub (@ayubhkd) reportedApple passwords shows this morning that my account on @Namecheap seems to be leaked ? Is this related to nalecheap being down yesterday ?
-
Melody D YouTube girl (@Mel_d_Designer) reported@Akpanthankgod_ Wait oo is namecheap still down My sales page is working but i turned off my ads cos they have been performing poorly this week
-
Α Ω Programmer (@OmegaNekoSimp) reportedNamecheap also had a power outage the other day... Interesting
-
Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reportedWe’ll apologize to our small business and enterprise customers. We are still experiencing the @Namecheap data outage. Thousands of businesses were affected. We will fix this. @NamecheapCEO we need a solution, post haste.
-
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.
-
thedreammaker.eth💹🧲 (@crichcrypto) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Seems my website is down again!
-
Corinson Davila (@corinsondavila) reported@NamecheapCEO Unfortunately all the emails I could have received during the Namecheap shortage are lost. You talked about "emails received during the outage may be delayed" but I don't think you're going to restore anything. Is your company will refund for this lost? Please, be honest.
-
Gatekeeping Queer Billionaire Jeff Gayzos (@jeffgayzos) reported@NamecheapCEO @thedammo @Namecheap I lost an entire days work, I missed a huge order opportunity because it seems that your team doesn't know how to plan a run a modern tech company. Why was thereNo backup system in place no backup data in new backup servers. Why are you relying on one system? Step Down
-
Chan Walrus (@chanwalrus) reportedI think you've done really well. As someone who hosts all my clients on Namecheap, yesterday was absolute chaos for me. :D Lots of phone calls. Woke up this morning and things were fixed. Thank you very much. I still trust Namecheap and I do have something that needs to be said: One of our customers is on wix, but their domain name is on Namecheap. To the people who were talking about hosting across platforms, their website lost connection. The more you split up your hosting information, the more problems can happen in a system. Let's say you host your site on Namecheap and your domain name is on Hostgator. If either go down for an outage like this, you still have the problem, there are just multiple risks. More potential points of failure.

Cyberw@t (@Cyberw0t) reported@iuditg Phoenix data center overheated yesterday and a Namecheap and others were down 12 hours.
-
Vance Lucas (@vlucas) reported@dh405 @Namecheap Yeah. Long outage.
-
Shawn McAllister (@eas4ai) reported@Namecheap No… last time I had an issue, you said the same ****… kindly **** off.
-
Best AI Tools ! (@Impact177) reportedNamecheap was down for 15 hours yesterday. 5,000 servers. One datacenter. Zero redundancy. Here's what every website owner should check today 👇 1/3
-
Shawn McAllister (@eas4ai) reported@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.

Dane (@danearden) reported@djomla1000x @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap My EasyWP hosted sites are still down.

giftlove (@giftlovej) reported@Namecheap is still down?
-
𝕘 𝕥 𝕨 𝕪 (@Gtwy) reported@siphomkwa @NamecheapCEO that isn't correct. any emails sent you you will arrive. RFC 5321 Section 4.5.4 "Retries continue until the message is transmitted or the sender gives up; the give-up time generally needs to be at least 4-5 days." the senders' mail servers will continue trying to email you until namecheap is back online, unless the outage had lasted 4 or 5 days

Isuho Friday (@IsuhoFriday) reported@jiya_3063 Namecheap, excellent customer support
