    Losing money because Namecheap went down is very hard to not get angry. This gotta be my last relationship with them. Let this one expire fast let me leave with my sanity.

    @Namecheap Get some Americans to fix this ****! You have a bunch of immigrants working there and crashed the system after they did the recent upgrade!

    @Namecheap This is unacceptable. ALL my websites & VPSs are down, clients are affected and I’m losing money. “Power outage” is not enough. Where is the redundancy and backup power? No ETA, no real explanation. I expect answers AND compensation for this outage.

    @Namecheap will there be any kind of compensation for the outage? no email for hours now, seriously thinking about migrating out atm.

    NAMECHEAP is still down. Don’t panic.

    NoOne (@mahmadsohel) reported

    @namecheap totally planning to change hosting the moment I'm back online. At least give us proper ETA, saying you don't know and keeping us in the blind sucks. Many people host 100s of sites on Namecheap.

    @SpaceshipStatus @spaceship @Namecheap Something similar had happened to me before at another company. The cause of the downtime was a major storm, but the issue was quickly resolved as they were hosted in three different regions around the globe.

    @brandreviewsng Absolutely. I agree. Am I upset? Yes. But we all are… I’m not going anywhere, but I am going to drill down on building system resiliency that’s damn near impermeable. #NameCheap

    @amktunes @Namecheap Literally I bought domain and after 15 mins it went down

  • 1CaDeUK
    CaDE (@1CaDeUK) reported

    @Namecheap Can’t wait to claim all this compensation for loss of earnings! I’ve lost out big time today. Definitely moving my service absolute ****** CRAP

  • 0xMiztik
    Miztik 🤙 (@0xMiztik) reported

    @Namecheap No email notifications... nothing... this service sucks. There better be some type of compensation for all users affected by this, for the lack of information and all the time the service has been down with no solution or support.

  • Ayke4LFC

    @Namecheap @tiagouy What's the point? Isn't it the same issue? Cos my site has been down too for about 4-5 hours?

    @Namecheap Wondering why unable to login, experince this since being used you guys for years now

  • AhsanParwez
    Ahsan Parwez (@AhsanParwez) reported

    @jcamachott @Namecheap Because there is a power outage in Phoenix and their datacenter went offline. They should have a backup plan for such cases though, they are big enough.

    @AceAleps @master_z919 @Namecheap did you read the OG post? Namecheap is down what do you think you can do for their customers ??? ( me inclusive)

  • WenMoonResearch
    wenairdrop.base.eth (@WenMoonResearch) reported

    @Namecheap Guys. This is ridiculous. Don’t you have power generators? Estimated time of fixing the issue?

  • utibeman
    Utibe Etim (@utibeman) reported

    Namecheap, what is going on? Why is your server down for more than 1 hour and 30 minutes? Paid ads are still running. Money wasted.

  • johndoexz
    ERROR (@johndoexz) reported

    All my services are down!! Cmon @Namecheap

  • fiqi_alfiqi
    Hassan (@fiqi_alfiqi) reported

    @Namecheap This is inconsistency for our services as everything connects to our email address including the faxes. May we know how long this will take ? Don’t you have backup datacenter ? Why only one power outreach effect your entire network infrastructure? Doesn’t make sense to us?

    @Namecheap This is an OUTAGE.

    the longer this goes on with @Namecheap, the worst it's going to get for them... I know many people are going to leave namecheap after this...

    @Namecheap @tiagouy Your site and your chat is down too so you are not available at all!

  • mickymouse1_1
    MICKEYMOUSE (@mickymouse1_1) reported

    Namecheap going down today is a good reminder that no platform is immune to failure. As developers, we shouldn’t only think about building features we also have to think about backups, redundancy, monitoring, and what happens when a service we depend on suddenly goes offline.

  • i_marouan
    Marouan. (@i_marouan) reported

    @Namecheap, it’s time to change the name to Servercheap. You guys are a joke. All the VPS/hosting services have been down for several hours with absolutely no notice. What a ******* mess.
