Namecheap Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • rick_everything Rick Reviews Everything (@rick_everything) reported

    Namecheap live chat support is almost as good SiteGround’s, although they weren’t able to help me with a 502 Bad Gateway issue I had. They just kept saying it’s a memory issue (of course!) so delete some plugins. It wasn’t a plugin.

  • Joel_Rain2o Joel Rainwater (@Joel_Rain2o) reported

    Looking for suggestions from other @IndieHackers again. What email service do you use for your project domain emails? I've tried Private Email offered through @Namecheap, but curious what others use. #IndieHackers #BuildInPublic

  • ecarlesi Emiliano Carlesi (@ecarlesi) reported

    Threat on hxxps://check-mymobile-apps[.]com/Login[.]php #phishing #bancosantander #namecheap

  • degencoinsol DEGEN Dex - a humble Dex on Solana (@degencoinsol) reported

    @Namecheap Waiting on offers from exchanges and Namecheap gonna stop my ****, you gotta be kidding.

  • jimconey James Coney (@jimconey) reported

    @MarkTaber_FII @TheFCA @Namecheap In this case the FCA asked for the domain name to be taken down last October. The domain name provider refused

  • II_ARROWS II ARROWS (@II_ARROWS) reported

    @Namecheap If a VPN don't log anything, it can't offer technical support.

  • rsmck Ross McKillop  (@rsmck) reported

    @notatweenie @Namecheap Yes, they're one of the fastest to act to take-down requests now, and they will act on reports by any means (eMail, Twitter etc) - they've gone from taking an argumentative, obstructive, approach to a proactive one where they seem to care about consumers. Admirable.

  • jas7457 Jason Addleman (@jas7457) reported

    I’ve never set up a #nextjs app on a dedicated domain before but it took all of 10 minutes to do that with namecheap and @vercel. @rauchg and team, nice work

  • skippern666 Aun «Skippern» Johnsen (@skippern666) reported

    @Namecheap Learning to use secure channels with end2end encryption is the only way to stay safe. Yes public WiFi is a vulnerability, but so is any unencrypted communication on internet. Besides, hackers intercepting communication in public WiFi is almost nonexistent problem.

  • _andypeacock Andrew Peacock (@_andypeacock) reported

    @Joel_Rain2o @IndieHackers @Namecheap I use Fastmail for multiple domains, with everything coming into one central inbox so I don't have to keep logging in and out of different accounts. I can't remember which of their plans support that, though.

  • christina_olii Christina Oliinyk (@christina_olii) reported

    @degencoinsol @Namecheap The server is up, we mitigated a minor DDoS which had caused the issue. Once again, we're really sorry for these inconveieces.

  • MohammadZadissa Mo zadissa (@MohammadZadissa) reported

    @II_ARROWS @Namecheap This is why technical support do ask customers to provide the logs from their client application as they do not have it.

    @atAnkurGupta @radekosmulski @Namecheap Yes, no problems so far

  • roliverio Julio C. Ortega "Roliverio" (@roliverio) reported

    @Namecheap "Constantly" since 2014...., could you tell the team that deals with new features to DM me so i can help them get their DNS deployment straight?, i'm willing to work pro-bono. Adding TLSA is just too damn easy...

  • PakToh PakToh (@PakToh) reported

    @tynn_is @RoedCrimson @Namecheap who is talking about von companies, i am talking about vpn... a vpn connection can also be the one i setup from mobile use back to my home network for security purposes, no external vpn provider involved...

  • itsflorabtw Flora (@itsflorabtw) reported

    docker hub, github, each website i maintain, linkedin, domain name providers... @Namecheap won't even let me change my name or email without contacting support, by the way Changing my name "IRL" is *way* easier.

  • cassieswriting Cassie Silva (@cassieswriting) reported

    Tech noob researching author website options! Godaddy vs. Namecheap to register a domain? Heard good/bad things about both... #amwriting #amquerying #WritingCommunity Any tips?

  • PakToh PakToh (@PakToh) reported

    @tynn_is @RoedCrimson @Namecheap but on an ssl connection i see the metadata: who communicates to whom... and even with compromised ssl, an cirrect setup von connection would help you at least in the local wlan, not in general, that is correct

  • christina_olii Christina Oliinyk (@christina_olii) reported

    @degencoinsol @Namecheap Hi, Christina from Namecheap team here. I am so sorry for the disruption of your business. We're doing what we can to restore the normal service asap. 🙏

  • II_ARROWS II ARROWS (@II_ARROWS) reported

    @MohammadZadissa @Namecheap Have do you check what was the problem on your side?

  • DilbagBagha Dilbag Singh (@DilbagBagha) reported

    @Namecheap again your server down

  • learnwithvidya Vidya ✨ (@learnwithvidya) reported

    I faced this issue with my Namecheap account. Cannot imagine actual businesses facing these issues..

  • degencoinsol DEGEN Dex - a humble Dex on Solana (@degencoinsol) reported

    Website is down, @Namecheap ***. Hurry up bruh.

  • rudificio rudificio (@rudificio) reported

    @Namecheap false you give all of your information to a company who promises they don't store it or look at it but are capable of doing so you don't fix the problem you only move it a bit further

  • tynn_is antifa på norsk er antifa (@tynn_is) reported

    @PakToh @RoedCrimson @Namecheap Incorrect. SSL protects your traffic, meaning even if someone intercepts your data, they can’t actually read it, unless that SSL has been compromised. They can be in some rare circumstances, but at that point a VPN isn’t gonna help you, either.

  • whambangpow Wham Bang Pow (@whambangpow) reported

    @Namecheap can I transfer a domain between 2 accounts on your service?

  • 4ndrej Andrej Godina (@4ndrej) reported

    @Namecheap Unfortunately @Namecheap did not help at all.

  • bunnymaid bunny (@bunnymaid) reported

    How does @Namecheap feel about hosting carders? httQs://cheapdumps.net/login.php I'm sure @Visa would be interested...

  • iamrildwanbello Rildwan.eth (@iamrildwanbello) reported

    A simplify explanation of what the governance token mean is like owning a part of Namecheap or Godaddy just for registering your domain name with them. This is the future we talk about in Decentralisation. You own a part of every venture you support.
