Namecheap Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Etta egbe (@ettaegbe) reported@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.
-
Hank Oflameo (@Oflameo) reported@internetarchive If it make you feel better, @Namecheap had a power outage last week.
-
Mezzy (@mezzy316) reported@a_shimanski @Namecheap Probably the same people that came up with the dog **** redesign of private email
-
Barrouchi (@Barrouchi) reported@AgentGoodbye @Namecheap That’s exactly the point. A tiny credit doesn’t come close to the real damage. $3k lost in a day — potentially $9k+ if the outage continues — is serious business impact, not just “a few hours of downtime.” Namecheap may not be able to cover everyone’s losses, but after an outage like this, the compensation should at least reflect the scale of the disruption.
-
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.
-
James Baca (AGGREGATOR/The Notorious Banker) (@notoriousbanker) reportedThis outage has put my business at a standstill today. If you sent a email to my email addresses I give to my subscribers today, I didn’t get it. Namecheap claims things are up and running but I have had 1 email received all day. Beyond Angry at the lack of communication.

Artie (@king_artie) reportednamecheap down last week friday github down today

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.....
-
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.
-
The Life & Times of ... (@BROaDWaYJiM) reported@Namecheap Needing support.
-
shon.vibes (@shonvibes) reported@Namecheap 's new interface for Private Email doesn't let you set up conversations for the inbox. Are they insane?! This shows a total lack of regard for the time management of business owners who use your service, Namecheap. I bet YOUR email has conversation view. #namecheapdown

Sean Ashton (@AshtonSean) reportedNamecheap email hosting still down :(
-
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.
-
B Diesel (@BDiesel6) reported@Namecheap So if a specific email address receives some emails from the outage does that mean they have received all of them? OR For a single email address are some emails delivered and some still possibly coming? —— If the latter, what time on a clock is the “nearest time”.
-
Levi J. Anderson (@TheWranglerPNW) reportedOver 12 hours of every website on @Namecheap reseller being inaccessible. Thousands of dollars lost, ad campaigns directing traffic to broken links, goodwill lost between providers & customers - never have I seen a ****** this bad in the web hosting space.
-
Opeyemi Gbemiro (@O_Gbemiro) reportedIs Namecheap still having an issue?
-
Victorydm | Ads Expert (@victorydchair) reported@toyinomotoso Namecheap is actually terrible A good percentage of those who use them always complain of frequent hacks on their websites I voiced out my frustration two years ago after losing more than 10 domains to hacks I can't even account fro Turns out, many persons also experience same issues Namecheap setup process is also too manual, Most times you'll have to change DNS yourself if you get a sub domain You have to install SSL yourself and all Most new hosting platforms do all that for you without you touching anything On hostinger 3 clicks and you have your website ready to use

🟣 Gato (@GatoGodMode) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap All my sites went down RIP. But I still love namecheap. This isn't their fault.

Pils10 (@PilsZehn) reported@Nishanttt05 Namecheap, but I like Cloudflare as well... Namecheaps support is tier 1 though..

Alex (@AlexejKirillov) reported@mwzd @MichaelCyger You'll always find companies that were successful no matter the TLD. Money will be made on these TLDs, but it will be the owners of the TLD, then maybe 0.1% of those who get their hands on the perfect span the dots, and the rest will just be rinsed. Let's just use the Namecheap list, with "Power" as the brand name - or you can just use any other Keyword (I like "Open" to make it fun as well) for that matter. In vast majority of cases it will not form a "span the dot" or "domain hack" brand. Are they all branding their company "Power" and the TLD doesn't matter? If yes, and you're marketing as "Power" only, imagine the marketing $$$ waste Are they all branding as Power+respective TLD? If yes, how much money will it take to change decades of human habit and behaviour to re-educate your customer, so they remember the full domain? And how much free traffic will you generate for Power+TLD․com and the waste of $$$ in the process power․aid power․arc power․asi power․brain power․clone power․craft power․den power․did power․droid power․fab power․flux power․folio power․forge power․foundry power․gate power․grid power․intel power․intelligence power․kit power․lab power․lens power․lift power․logic power․maker power․mart power․matrix power․mesh power․mod power․ops power․path power․scan power․sense power․shift power․ship power․sync power․synth power․sys power․trek power․view power․wave

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.

Artyom Shimanski (@a_shimanski) reported@fgrub3r @Namecheap @Cloudflare yeah, they already have the network for it. mailboxes just mean storage and compliance on top
-
Dane (@danearden) reported@djomla1000x @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap My EasyWP hosted sites are still down.
-
Alex | The Geeknd (@WebDevLex) reported@UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Ofc it’s unpredictable but definitely should be planned for. A single datacenter took down everything? First of all.. how? And what if that DC blew up instead of just malfunctioning chillers.. those excuses don’t really fly anymore
-
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.
-
Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reportedWe’ll apologize to our small business and enterprise customers. We are still experiencing the @Namecheap data outage. Thousands of businesses were affected. We will fix this. @NamecheapCEO we need a solution, post haste.
-
NestFrog (@NestFrog) reported@Namecheap ssl reseller api service still not work
-
Sumit Kumar (@Sumit27191) reported@Namecheap We’re still unable to access our website, and none of our platforms are working. Everything is down, and this is having a serious impact on our business. Our clients are getting frustrated and losing patience because they can’t access the services they depend on.

Shawn McAllister (@eas4ai) reported@Namecheap No… last time I had an issue, you said the same ****… kindly **** off.
-
SetraHost (@SetraHost) reported@alexneyret @Namecheap Well said! Datacenter issues are out of a hosting companies control when collocating. While downtime is never fun, these things can happen unfortunately & from what I’ve seen, NameCheap communicated throughout it all & even sent staff onsite to expedite the recovery process.
