Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
zuby | Default Web Designer (@zubywebstudio) reportedTo get a domain now and hosting is not the problem until it's time for renewal I think Namecheap now has separate charge for their positive SSL renewal ๐

DR ALEXO (@DrAlexos) reportedBtw guys, let me share something about Minecraft. If you didn't grow up playing Minecraft on eg McPvP, factions and these other hardcore servers, you will never be successful. Holy ****, do I have connections from those times. On top of that, I just checked, I've had my namecheap and godaddy accounts since 2013, at which point I was 10. The amount of knowledge and experience I have at my age now is unheard of unless you also grew up playing on those servers. Take Malone Lam for example. It also makes me immune to empty threats, mf I was 10 with a ddos software on my iMac, don't think you can intimidate me. Magnum PI couldn't dig up more dirt on somebody than I can. TLDR: Minecraft makes Millionaires

Daniel Scheffler (@schvffler) reported@Anas_founder @manas_builds yeah was the same for me. tried to transfer a .de domain to namecheap once and it didn't work. Namecheap support told me that I should use their new platform which is Spaceship. looks much more modern and stuff

Rian (@Rian_Visser) reported@YashHustle_22 Namecheap. Been with them for a couple for a couple decades now. Easy to use systems, great customer support, never had a single problem with a domain name registered through them.

Luca Capone | Vibe Coder (@LucaCaponeX) reported@buildwithmaya @Namecheap Namecheap funded a whole graveyard of my half-built ideas. Buying the domain takes 5 minutes. Shipping the actual thing is where I disappear for 3 months. The domain was never the hard part.

Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported@digitalocean yโall left my company in a lurch, and now Iโm looking to shift. Overpriced droplets in my opinion, horrible support, unless youโre paying $999 a month, in my opinion and a lack of uptime stability on smaller tiers in my opinion. @Namecheap VPS is lookin good.

Qamar Issa (@QamarIssaqf) reported@0xPurchase @sidomains @NamePros How to buy in less 25$ Which platform bro to invest I search namecheap spaceship not support this

Domayn Kapital (@domaynkapital) reported@Namecheap every other week there's a domain I win domains with non-functioning namerservers. 3-4 times in last months. I contact support and they tell gaslight me telling me it's all fine. Waste 30 minutes until they call a specialist to fixt it. Please deal with this.

Brian Lee Mayes โ โ๐ข๐ฒ๐โ ๐ข๐ฝ๐ป๐ฒ๐ท๐ฐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฎ (@BrianLeeMayes) reported@Namecheap It appears "temporarily" fixed, know this...the biggest reason I will likely be leaving, isn't so much the repeated issues, but the outsourced tech support, of people that know absolutely nothing! It's pathetic, and IDK why my former webmaster chose Namecheap.

LawsOfRobots (@LawsOfRobots) reportedI am the owner of Azure subscription and tenant. After moving my verified domain from GoDaddy to NameCheap, I am now completely locked out of this subscription and tenant. I cannot log in or access any resources. I no longer need this subscription or any of its resources (already replaced) . I would like to permanently cancel and delete the entire subscription (including all associated resources, databases, Key Vaults, etc.) to close this account cleanly. @AzureSupport

SpamAuditor (@SpamAuditor) reportedWatch for emails pretending to be support at @Namecheap, thankfully NameCheap has good SPF records in place, fake storage is full emails. If you get one of these, tell your email administrator to tighten up their SPF checks.@DatalixDE IP address 45.11.229.]113 this time

based64 (@based64_eth) reported@faa0311 Whatever you do stay away from @Namecheap. Once they had an issue with SMS OTP and users were locked out for months with no recourse.

The Smart Ape ๐ฅ (@the_smart_ape) reportedmillions of companies forget to renew their domain names every year. you can just buy the expired domain someone forgot about and get a premium on it. itโs called drop catching. where to find them discovery + filtering: โ expireddomains[.]net โ domcop โ freshdrop โ moonsy auctions + catching: โ godaddy auctions โ namecheap expired auctions โ dynadot closeouts โ namejet / snapnames โ dropcatch (1,200+ registrars, best catch rate on contested names) the process: domain expires โ grace period โ โpending deleteโ โ drops. once itโs pending delete (usually ~5 days before the drop) you can place a backorder. if more than one person wants it, it goes to auction. most of these never get listed for sale. catch the ones with real value (traffic, backlinks, brandable names).
