    @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 my website is still down please!!!

    What we learnt from yesterday’s Namecheap outage: When your infrastructure sits in one data center abroad, one power/cooling failure can take down thousands of sites, emails, and domains at once. Local, distributed hosting reduces that single point of failure.

    @Namecheap Whats going on right now is insane! I lost a $3k/m retainer cuz of this bullshit. It’s been days now I’ve never experienced anything like this in my life. Used namecheap for a decade starting various domains in the ecom space, I’ll be ******* of as soon as they get their **** together enough that I even can.

    @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.

    @Namecheap when I used openclaw I used a different DNS service that had API/console access, I forget and I could delegate permissions to it. Worked great, but I couldn't switch from ya'll :)

    @internetarchive If it make you feel better, @Namecheap had a power outage last week.

  • jai_ozzie
    Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported

    3/3 Unfortunately, Namecheap’s response has been to minimise the impact, hide behind what its systems recorded, and offer a token $10 credit. @NamecheapCEO — is this genuinely the level of accountability you believe Namecheap should demonstrate after a major outage?

  • jai_ozzie
    Jai (@jai_ozzie) reported

    During the outage, emails were inaccessible and external senders received bounce-backs. I tested from Gmail and Yahoo. A client also received a bounce-back. Namecheap’s CEO @HilanKlein publicly acknowledged the email outage and said affected emails may be delayed. 2/4

    🔴 Namecheap is DOWN. Was it hacked? No verified evidence of a cyberattack. Namecheap says the outage is linked to infrastructure issues at its Phoenix data center. 🔴 What happened 🔴 What’s affected 🔴 Why it matters We’re tracking the incident as it develops. #Namecheap #NamecheapDown

    @Namecheap Our dedicated servers are still down!!! According to your news they should be working but they are not. I have been working with customer support for 2 and a half hours now and no answers yet!

    Update: EasyWP and some services were fully back online around 1:20 PM IST on Aug 14 roughly 19 hours after I posted this. The whole Namecheap outage was fully resolved on around 15 AUG 5AM IST.

    @jain_harshit Cloudflare. Better management and support, then namecheap.

  • Poor__Old
    Richie Young (@Poor__Old) reported

    An underrated part of doing your own thing is all the tangential skills you learn. Just had a client from last year hit me up because their website was not showing online. Getting a "1001 error". Something about Cloudflare. Site built through carrd. Hosted on namecheap. Both renewed in the past year. Carrd reset to "offline draft". Namecheap added another DNS record. And it toggled ' on for the existing records. Carrd has its own ceriticate of security, so the toggles and extra DNS record were creating a problem. Honestly, I can't speak it the lingo exactly. But I knew the language enough to trouble shoot, find another back door tab in Carrd, and troubleshoot the problem. Site back up this morning. With a little help from the AI lords and the ability to speak(screenshot) the problem, it's all better now. Good start to the day. Especially after the little one was up from 11-2 last night!

    @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.

  • 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?
