Hez (@techbyhez) reported@Gaus450 i've stuck with namecheap for years, cheap renewals and decent support.
-
Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported@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.

Generalissimo P4X (@P4X_real) reported@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.

Brand (@Brandslewaa) reportedI’m seriously reconsidering my trust in Namecheap after a recent security concern. I contacted live support regarding a hosting issue. A support agent requested permission to access my cPanel to troubleshoot a DNS/time-zone synchronization problem… @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap

Build A Goat (@buildAgoat) reported@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.

Cap-EO 👨🏾💻 (@EOEboh) reportedThe way namecheap was down yesterday is scary.. we might start seeing more elongated downtimes like this
-
Kevin Guaman (@KCG3D) reportedi genuinely did not get the "hype" for this AI assistant called Instinct. if you have Codex or Claude, you can technically do everything it does. BUT, the problem is you need to download an app to your machine, make sure you got data/wi-fi, ask Computer Use to get it done, etc. Instinct just turned off auto renewal in Namecheap for a website for me. my first WOW moment was that it has it's own Vault, asked me for my password (like 1Password) and just got **** done for me. i don't know if i fully trust it yet, but it got it done over iMessage, accurately, in less than a minute, and sent a screenshot.

amar (@liftplaycode) reported@viveksb007 Namecheap If by conversion you mean tricking the customer to pay more then it probably works

Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported@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!
-
Tapas Adhikary | tapaScript (@tapasadhikary) reportedThe private email from @Namecheap has got the worst upgrade of this century. It not only breaks email delivery, but also meeting appointments. An extremely unplanned upgrade with unprofessional customer handling from Namecheap is surely making their name a cheap one!

Tobi (@To_bi_Bakare) reportedOption 3: Namecheap Namecheap accepts PayPal as well as cards if you already have or can set up a PayPal account funded another way, that sidesteps the naira-card issue too.

Shawn McAllister (@eas4ai) reported@Namecheap has lost my business. Today was the last straw. I will never buy another domain from you scammy ************* in life. You add “premium domain” tax and gatekeep customers. I even got a capital letter “BANNED” for a domain I searched and then I just bought it through @Cloudflare for $11. After the BANNED thing, I searched another domain and it said “Premium Domain” and was priced at $100,000… I also bought that domain at Cloudflare for $11. That was the last straw. I’ve been a Namecheap customer for over 20 years. I am DONE. I’ll be transferring all of my domains to Cloudflare this week.

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.
