@Namecheap Oh ****... Nice! I thought I was tripping.
Hackology (@Hackology) reported 9 seconds ago
@Namecheap VPS CP is now responsive, even that was not loading rest even namecheap site appears to off ... VPS etc all down , even the IP associated with it
Dusty Candland (@candland) reported 2 minutes ago
@austinginder That's a crazy one! I've seen a number of bad things on GoDaddy as well. Generally try to get clients to move to PorkBun or NameCheap... I'll even help them for free!
Rajib Mondal (@rajibmondal_) reported 2 minutes ago
@jacksimone78 Yeah Namecheap I host with DigitalOcean Droplets, it's support is good and also it seems cost effective
Rozzabuilds (@rozzabuilds) reported 3 minutes ago
@ffinbuilds I swear I'm the only person on earth to have never used namecheap...
Spencer Heckathorn (@mrhobbeys) reported 6 minutes ago
@BacLeodiv Everyone hates on Godaddy but I e been there 20 years and only had one major issue related to their migration in the early 2010s. Hundreds of domains and 40ish customers. No complaints. I also use the others. Namecheap is up and down on their support. Cloudflare I thought of as expensive. But honestly they all are now.
Qirisiti Returns (@QirisitiReturns) reported 9 minutes ago
@Namecheap upon checking my hosting list there was nothing, talking to support they say that i have been refunded stellar, but there is no confirmation email of that. hmm, on the domain they said it was put on auction and i cant access it or recover it
Hackology (@Hackology) reported 9 minutes ago
@Namecheap Glad it's sorted ....imagine I spent 15 odd minutes figuring out what's wrong with my sites, never occurred to me it could be the host aswell - 😶
Johnmark Obiefuna (@jayhemz) reported 19 minutes ago
@Nueltek a few minor inaccuracies here. > low-traffic websites the hypernova VPS subscription on Namecheap accomodates up to 10TB in bandwidth. that's more than enough for most traffic loads. > if the VPS goes down it's still more reliable than shared hosting > if one website gets compromised, the entire server could be at risk true. only if the exploit gets a hold of 'root' > 1 site experiences a major traffic spike cloudflare to the rescue > single point of failure? cloudflare to the rescue hehe.

@namesilo @Namecheap NameSilo dead rate is 60%+ for fresh domains (0-6mo) — domains are born dead. Namecheap fresh domains are 25% dead (normal setup delay). This means NameSilo domains were never intended to be used.

I'm a Global Admin locked out of my M365 tenant due to MFA with no recovery methods. Error 500121. I own the domain (registered in Namecheap) and can verify via DNS. Need urgent help resetting MFA. @MicrosoftHelps

@EleanorKonik I'm really not sure which provider is the most trustworthy these days. I keep my most valuable domains on Network Solutions, but I have no idea if that's a good idea. I do know that I pay a lot more than at Namecheap, where I have most of the others.
Hackology (@Hackology) reported 33 minutes ago
Namecheap is facing some issues or their hosted sites are down ? @Namecheap
Enjoyment Minister(SHINIGAMI🎮👩‍🚒) (@enjoymentmin) reported 40 minutes ago
@dev_olayinka Im sure you had other cheaper options from the start. You know why you chose Namecheap. I will never use any other hosting server other than namecheap my bro.
Shawn (@shawn_dot_so) reported 40 minutes ago
@elgermerlo @GoDaddy @Cloudflare GoDaddy isn’t even a consideration for me.. it’s Cloudflare first place or namecheap for TLDs that Cloudflare doesn’t support yet
Shant (@ShantDotMe) reported 42 minutes ago
@Namecheap that security ticket is with bluehost, not you (thankfully). But 3.5hrs on chat to ID an IP is way too much. and that came after they reviewed the info I provided?? 🤯 I could easily rate this as the worse experience I had with your service!
Longevity World Cup (@LongevityWorldC) reported 42 minutes ago
Longevity World Cup is temporarily unavailable due to a @Namecheap hosting network incident affecting hosted websites and accounts. We’re monitoring the situation and will be back online once connectivity is restored.
Adam Maysonet (@synozeer) reported 44 minutes ago
@TopShelfNames @spaceship If someone typed in the domain in their browser bar, they would have seen an Afternic lander. The person instead searched for the domain on Namecheap/Spaceship and bought it that way (aka. reg path), so they may never have even seen the lander.
The Trunk Tales (@TheTrunkTales) reported 47 minutes ago
@Namecheap So, you are not going to take action against the domain simply because it removed the subdomain? The root domain is the threat, and it continues to create subdomains with this content. This is not an isolated issue.
Mehmet Ali Demirci (@malidemirci_gm) reported 50 minutes ago
@Namecheap unable to solve CDN and slow site problems for over two days!

@uwunetes i know godaddy is a scam but why is namecheap bad?
Kappaemme (@Kappaemme1926) reported 51 minutes ago
@pcshipp namecheap Their service is top notch, I had a problem and they solved it right away, they deserve my money @Namecheap
Matthias Reinholz (@MattReinholz) reported 53 minutes ago
Interesting side-fact: they say the issue was about DNSSEC. However, in contrast to .com, @Namecheap doesn't let me configure DNSSEC for .de domains (not because of the current issue but generally). @grok does DENIC use a different layer/method of DNSSEC that doesn't allow configuring it on the registry level?

@baxiabhishek @Namecheap Name cheap is just that ! Cheap !! I’ve had a similar experience a year ago, and I never went back to them. Buy domains elsewhere and pay a wee bit more for peace of mind
Charles (@CDomainer) reported 55 minutes ago
@BTCUFO It’s really **** that @Namecheap don’t let users list .ai domain names on their platform
DeepCantCode (@DeepCantCode) reported 56 minutes ago
Guys, I genuinely need help 😭 I need to buy a domain. Is Namecheap really worth it? The renewal prices are kinda high… and Porkbun feels the same. Any better domain registrar with low renewal prices and overall cheaper costs? I'm broke 💀
Borden Hachez (@HarrowingTimes) reported 59 minutes ago
@BenjaminHouy That's normal, United Domains is one of the worst companies out there. Always use @Porkbun or maybe namecheap. If you have issues with United Domains you can also use reclabox and publicly complain about them, United Domains don't like public shaming and they will insta fix it
