-
not ousher (@ousher23) reported@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.
-
Gary Kriebel (@GaryKriebel) reported@Namecheap You don't release new software removing functionality from the users. Your actions will make me miss my wife's doctor's appointments. I've expressed the details to your support staff. I will be looking for a new provider. This is unacceptable.

Dusyant kumar (@Dusyantkmr) reportedDay 5: Building in Public 🙌🏻 If you want to start a startup in 2026, the cost of building has never been lower. Claude = coding ($20/mo) GPT API = AI features (~$20/mo) Supabase = backend (Free) Vercel = deployment (Free) Namecheap = domain (~$12/yr) Stripe/Dodopayments = payments (2.9%/transaction) GitHub = version control (Free) Resend = emails (Free) ProductBridge = feedback (Free) Clerk = auth (Free) Cloudflare = DNS (Free) PostHog = analytics (Free) Sentry = error tracking (Free) Upstash = Redis (Free) Pinecone = vector DB (Free) You can get surprisingly far with ~$40/month.

The Ran Network (@therannetwork) reported@Namecheap Your problems are causing us problems. Are you considering some form of compensation for leaving your customers mute and blind for days?
-
Chris Silver Smith (@si1very) reportedNamecheap is having an outage currently, which appears to be affecting my company email.
-
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 $11. That was the last straw. I’ve been a Namecheap customer for over 20 years. I am DONE. I’ll be transferring all of my domains to Cloudflare this week.
-
@pweiser 4 gov (@nikkiglyn) reported@Namecheap My service is down again.
-
Alessandro Bogliari (@alexeidos) reported@Namecheap someone is impersonating our company using a domain that is very similar to ours. They are scamming influencers while using our company name. I reported this to your abuse team 7 days ago. no response. Can someone get back to us ASAP and take this domain down?
-
PixelPioneer (@PixelPioneerOnX) reported@PaulMugenda @Techparleynews @Namecheap I have a ticket open. They are not acknowledging anything regarding it being broken on their end. I have multiple sites. All php is broken and on their end.
-
Todd A 🤙 Badlander (@rigid_river_MT) reported@LocalSEO_Guy @batesbn I like Namecheap for a registrar. Cloidflare for dns. But I rarely get to choose the hosting unless its a new build. I cover all the domain migration stuff. Godaddy isnt a terrible regisrar, but i dont like waiting so long for a record to propogate. Their builder is 💩 tho.
-
Cap-EO 👨🏾💻 (@EOEboh) reportedThe way namecheap was down yesterday is scary.. we might start seeing more elongated downtimes like this
-
David Silva Smith (@DavidSilvaSmith) reported@Namecheap when I used openclaw I used a different DNS service that had API/console access, I forget and I could delegate permissions to it. Worked great, but I couldn't switch from ya'll :)
-
Boiler Bay Beacon (@boilerbaybeacon) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap All I ask is that you provide the best possible service from here on out. Trim away the fat and the bullshit. Collocate priority one.
-
Ex0 Byte (@Ex0_Byte) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap This outage brought me across this website. And has informed me I can start my buisness for essentially free, not 300$ .... its called sole proprieter .
-
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?
-
VictualBro (@Victual_Bro) reported@Namecheap Privateemail down... not like I have work to do or anything.
-
Michael Knight (@michaelmknight) reported@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap 33 Hours down, and still NO Email, NO VPS. THIS IS NOW BEYOND UNACCEPTABLE!
-
Felix (@Reezxy23) reportedThere has never been a cheaper time to build. Claude = coding. ($20/mo) Supabase = backend. (Free) Vercel= deploying. (Free) Namecheap = domain. ($12/yr) Stripe = payments. (2.9%/ transaction) GitHub = version control. (Free) Resend = emails. (Free) Clerk = auth. (Free) Cloudflare = DNS. (Free) PostHog = analytics. (Free) Sentry = error tracking. (Free) Upstash - Redis. (Free) Pinecone = vector DB. (Free) Total monthly cost to run a startup: ~$20

Abdi (@UTDAbdisa) reported@Negusnati @d4m1n I still have to respect the hustle. I think namecheap was down for some reason
-
Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported@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?
-
Andy Rowe @399 (@andyrowe) reported@shadilayvision @Namecheap Just speculating about the 8 hour outage with conflicting rumors. Had me wondering about ransomware but it actually was a cooling issue with their Phoenix data center.
-
Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported3/3 Unfortunately, Namecheap’s response has been to minimise the impact, hide behind what its systems recorded, and offer a token $10 credit. @NamecheapCEO — is this genuinely the level of accountability you believe Namecheap should demonstrate after a major outage?
-
Sureñita (@montanitadelsur) reported@Namecheap Private mail still not working!!!
-
Fuzzicus® Innocuous 🟦🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷💙💛 (@MissFuzzball) reported@Namecheap My email was down for about 12 hours. When it came back up, no emails that would have been received during that time were there. Are they lost in the ether forever?
-
The Life & Times of ... (@BROaDWaYJiM) reported@Namecheap Needing support.
-
Pelumi Isola | Software Engineer (@softwareengng) reported@EOEboh Is it that we have more apps running on cloud? It wasn’t namecheap alone sef some other hosting platforms were down too
-
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.
-
Barely There (@YonnyWiden) reported@Namecheap @coachwesnoski Your live chat is never responded to by a human, only the AI tool.
-
Dave (@DavidGetchel) reportedNamecheap being down for so long is ridiculous! Still having email issues.
-
Giles Dawe (@GilesDawe) reportedGot the same message from Namecheap and Spaceship that "All our services are now back online following the significant outage caused by a cooling system failure at the RadiusDC: Phoenix data center." Wondering why they don't have backups in place to fix outages?
