    @Namecheap Your problems are causing us problems. Are you considering some form of compensation for leaving your customers mute and blind for days?

    @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Seems my website is down again!

    @UK_Daniel_Card See they had disaster recovery and their compliance standards said it had to be at a separate site. So they likely figured well, upstairs on the second floor is *basically* another site, I mean it’s a different location altogether, one has one set of coordinates and the other another. Besides their data centers are SOCII compliant meaning they have *environmental and power redundancy* because they care. Mostly they care about looking like they care though. Auditors came by, but they mostly had beers and didn’t give a ****, see they’re incentivized to not give a **** because a clean audit means they’ll be hired again. they’re totally independent, but the beers were good and their business depends on the one massive client. They of course made note of the DR situation, but namecheap accepted the risk by signing a paper and pinky swearing it would totally be fixed soonish at some point probably. This is my literal experience with compliance audits. They’re a joke. The bit about namecheap only using SOCII compliant data centers is real btw. So what happened? An abundant lack of competence.

    @tapasadhikary @Namecheap I migrated to MS 365 due to similar issues.

    @NamecheapCEO so damn… My ******* Quasar server got shut down today just after I was told last night that I would get a month complementary Grace because of my business being shut down (outage) and now my entire goddamn platform is off-line again! ****! @Namecheap bullshit!

    @buildAgoat @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Hopefully support can trace the new outbound path and IP reputation.

    This raises serious questions about customer privacy, access controls, and internal security practices. I believe Namecheap should investigate this incident and provide a clear explanation of what happened and why those commands were executed.

    @Namecheap The @Namecheap PR machine is impressive. The accountability isn’t. Publicly, @NamecheapCEO talks about customers and restoring trust. But when a real customer gives you an opportunity to demonstrate that accountability, silence. PR theatre ≠ accountability.

    @fytagee @Porkbun porkbun is better in the way that they nuke the entire account when a phishing domain is detected sinec bad actors normally register multiple domains in the same account compared to namecheap who only takes down that domain.

  • jai_ozzie
    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?

    @taylorotwell When Namecheap went down, I wondered if the cloud in Laravel cloud is actually cloud as in if a data center in the US fails a data center in Europe can still serve our applications.

    @andyyen Same issue as namecheap?

  • farfesadee
    Farmercologist (@farfesadee) reported

    So apparently, Contabo newly introduced a free firewall feature which was enabled on the account and as a result, every incoming traffic was being dropped. More so, the issue Namecheap had last Thursday affected our domain as well, the DNS record completely stopped communicating with the server’s public IP. All issues fixed💯💯💯. Now I can rest😒😒😒 This is one of the things you get for working as a Bsckend Engineer.

    @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.

    @DecrepitProwl If you switch to namecheap you can get the email service much cheaper and renting a vps for your web hosting yourself would also be much cheaper, would just take a little more work to set up. I haven't checked out the site, but if you are just hosting photography you can get away with a lot less.

    @Namecheap Namecheap is a truly terrible company. They charged me for the PrivateSSL service which is part of a hosting plan I was planning to cancel before the billing date. When I asked for a refund, they said the charge was non-refundable. It’s a rip-off.

    @Namecheap uh oh, namecheap hosting.. down again?

  • RBKGRG
    Camille Godwin (@RBKGRG) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO You still have issues and you should be transparent about it. And the new format is horrible. You are touting it as improved but it adds nothing new and takes away everything that was so useful in the OX interface. Guess I'm changing providers after some good years.

    @Namecheap what now ???? cant open the Private Email client , cant send emails ...... wtf

  • MaioloCelso
    Celso Maiolo (@MaioloCelso) reported

    @Namecheap I have been down over one week now? I’m running out of patience and excuses. I’m afraid that I’m going to have to move hosting providers as this upgrade or meltdown has singularly destroyed your reputation and business. How does it take over a week to restore?

  • buildAgoat

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO after the Private Email / Jellyfish backend upgrade, my outbound mail is landing in Gmail spam even though SPF, DKIM, and DMARC all pass. Looks like shared outbound reputation on the new path. Can someone from PE support look into deliverability? Happy to DM details.

    @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.

    Our VPS has been down and intermittently inaccessible since yesterday, with no prior notice, no email, no clear explanation, and not even an apology. This is not the level of reliability or communication we expect from a VPS provider. @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO
