Julián Quiñones Ruiz (@jequinones92) reported@Namecheap @notfound2k23 12 hours without service, this is unnacceptable...
-
Toheeb Yusuf (@TByusuff) reported@thisleke @Akpanthankgod_ @victorydchair Namecheap honestly had good customer service but had a shaky network
-
SakuraAAH (@harunosakuraka) reported@Porkbun @spaceship @Namecheap 5/ The India Payment Problem 🇮🇳 Most top developer-recommended platforms (like Porkbun or Spaceship) offer great pricing but don't support native UPI. If your debit card lacks international enabling, your purchase will instantly fail. Don't let that stall your launch! Platforms that actually support UPI to lock down your name instantly: • GoDaddy India: Massive support for UPI, great initial promos, but watch out for intense checkout up-sells! • Hostinger India: Highly reliable local billing, excellent speeds, and clean UPI QR codes at checkout.

Old Charter (@OldCharterExp) reported@ZPEdisclosure My wife's site has been down for 3 days and she can't get into any of her other accounts because she set up 2FA through her email and website hosted with Namecheap! @Namecheap WTF???
-
Martin Guay (@MartinGuayOTT) reported@NamecheapCEO Namecheap messed up, but crying about lost ad spend while running your entire business on a budget shared host with zero failover plan is on you. Disaster recovery isn't optional. If one vendor going down tanks your revenue, you failed your own business. #fafo

Isuho Friday (@IsuhoFriday) reported@jiya_3063 Namecheap, excellent customer support
-
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
-
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.
-
Jean-Karim Traore (@jayKecom) reported@B0GUS @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap My #privateemail accounts are not all working. 1 out of 3 is working and 2 of the ones not working have all my emails disappeared and gone.....
-
ayub (@ayubhkd) reportedApple passwords shows this morning that my account on @Namecheap seems to be leaked ? Is this related to nalecheap being down yesterday ?
-
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.
-
Mezzy (@mezzy316) reported@a_shimanski @Namecheap Probably the same people that came up with the dog **** redesign of private email
-
Prongl (@prongl_) reported@Namecheap After 10 hours of outage you managed to get your systems online just in time to send me my monthly bill. Not even a credit for the downtime, how generous

Michael Yousrie (@michael_yousrie) reported2 days ago, @Namecheap was down. Today, @github is down. what's going on guys? are the AI models finally breaking free?
-
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.
-
Jak (@jakcater) reported@NamecheapCEO @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Please tell me when emails received during outage will come through.
-
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?
-
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!
-
Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@sloaxleak @Namecheap @Cloudflare yeah, you're right. paying isn't the problem, picking one that stays up is
-
Toyin Omotoso (@toyinomotoso) reported@victorydchair Or maybe Namecheap isn't for beginners. I have been using Namecheap since 2011 and I don't have all these issues you stated.
-
Brian Osoro (@OsoroOngera) reportedNamecheap, Spaceship were down. What's happening.
-
Darth (@Darth88888) reported“We will work extremely hard” here means 1 month extension on the hosting… pure joke of a company! We lost hundreds of thousands in sales and revenue and they are giving 1 month of free service?! #namecheap #hosting #server
-
Lauren (@Lorncat) reported@NamecheapCEO Should my team go to the office tomorrow yes or no? Namecheap isn’t giving me an answer. Server is still down. Do we close indefinitely?
-
Sean Ashton (@AshtonSean) reportedNamecheap email hosting still down :(
-
Adtastic Hosting (@Adtastic) reported@NamecheapCEO I've been with @Namecheap for years. The service has been flawless. Unlike everywhere else I'd been over my 28 years in business. An event like this is unmistakably horrific and probably hurt a lot of of other people more than it hurt me. But I don't see that Namecheap was the cause of this event. Maybe they could have handled it better. Maybe they could have communicated it better. Maybe they could have mitigated it better. Hopefully, they've learned many lessons here and will adapt and adjust. I've learned my own lessons like taking DNS of my ded server and moving it elsewhere so if there is a next time I can recover myself and my clients quickly via our offsite backups. Having a small server in another region that does syncs of my important systems but stays offline and is available to fire up in a situation like this so I don't lose my billing system or other important processes. I'm not going to hold Namecheap responsible for this event. I will still be a loyal customer unless someday they become different and contrary. I expect they will learn and grow from this event just as I have. Try and have a nice day and accentuate the positive.

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.
-
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.

Top Shelf Names (@TopShelfNames) reportedSpaceship seems to have rewritten everything from the ground up except for the domain search function which is arguably the most important feature, and the worst part about Namecheap. I may be alone here, but I find Beast Mode insufferable.
