    @Namecheap My email was down for about 12 hours. When it came back up, no emails that would have been received during that time were there. Are they lost in the ether forever?

    Well done to @namecheap and @namecheapceo for restoring services after the Phoenix datacenter power and cooling failure. Please publish the RCA, build cross-region failover, and isolate support/status systems. One facility must never take the entire platform down again.

    Does @Namecheap have plans to reimburse its users for the loss or it’s just gonna be one of those we don’t care customer service? Cos there was no announcement, no update. Nothing at all.

    @fgrub3r @Namecheap @Cloudflare yeah, they already have the network for it. mailboxes just mean storage and compliance on top

    @danearden @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Same. What a ******* shame I hope everybody migrates hosting away from this terrible company. I guarantee they won’t do anything to repay loyal customers after this much more than an apology.

    @bhartzer @Namecheap I am on the 3-year @namecheap shared hosting plan and to compensate for this outage they gave me a whole free month. My site is still down.

  • hamid2108
    Hamid Mousavi (@hamid2108) reported

    Our VPS has been down and intermittently inaccessible since yesterday, with no prior notice, no email, no clear explanation, and not even an apology. This is not the level of reliability or communication we expect from a VPS provider. @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO

    @Negusnati @d4m1n I still have to respect the hustle. I think namecheap was down for some reason

    @Victual_Bro @Namecheap No ****. I cannot send woprk e-mails!!! Again. This is BS.

  • bhartzer
    Bill Hartzer (@bhartzer) reported

    @BeardedDale @Namecheap They could fail, but can be dealt with. For example, if you have access to the DNS then you can point it to another server if the web host goes down. If you don't have access to the registrar account where you manage DNS and host the site, then that's an issue.

    @Namecheap Needing support.

  • xanthirus
    S️im Fleshulator (@xanthirus) reported

    @DecrepitProwl If you switch to namecheap you can get the email service much cheaper and renting a vps for your web hosting yourself would also be much cheaper, would just take a little more work to set up. I haven't checked out the site, but if you are just hosting photography you can get away with a lot less.

    “We will work extremely hard” here means 1 month extension on the hosting… pure joke of a company! We lost hundreds of thousands in sales and revenue and they are giving 1 month of free service?! #namecheap #hosting #server

  • ousher23
    not ousher (@ousher23) reported

    @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Yes, major outage. A storm-triggered cooling system failure at the PhoenixNAP facility forced Namecheap to shut down over 5,000 servers to prevent hardware damage, though services are currently coming back online progressively.

    @Nishanttt05 Namecheap, but I like Cloudflare as well... Namecheaps support is tier 1 though..

  • securecipher
    Timothy Conrad (@securecipher) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @NamecheapCEO I sure hope site reliability and redundancy is in the immediate design plans of Namecheap. It is hard to understand why you have so many of your services in one site with PhoenixNAP. The U.S. is filled with cloud companies that would help service your needs.

    @NamecheapCEO Should my team go to the office tomorrow yes or no? Namecheap isn’t giving me an answer. Server is still down. Do we close indefinitely?

    This 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.

    @thisleke @Akpanthankgod_ @victorydchair Namecheap honestly had good customer service but had a shaky network

    Got the same message from Namecheap and Spaceship that "All our services are now back online following the significant outage caused by a cooling system failure at the RadiusDC: Phoenix data center." Wondering why they don't have backups in place to fix outages?

    The way namecheap was down yesterday is scary.. we might start seeing more elongated downtimes like this

  • YonnyWiden
    Barely There (@YonnyWiden) reported

    @NamecheapCEO One of our two sites is still down, no response from HTTP connection request. It's been more 15 hours since our customers cannot access our site. Our competitors do not use namecheap, so they have been up. This is the worst fail imaginable.

    @a_shimanski @Namecheap Probably the same people that came up with the dog **** redesign of private email

  • chanwalrus
    Chan Walrus (@chanwalrus) reported

    I think you've done really well. As someone who hosts all my clients on Namecheap, yesterday was absolute chaos for me. :D Lots of phone calls. Woke up this morning and things were fixed. Thank you very much. I still trust Namecheap and I do have something that needs to be said: One of our customers is on wix, but their domain name is on Namecheap. To the people who were talking about hosting across platforms, their website lost connection. The more you split up your hosting information, the more problems can happen in a system. Let's say you host your site on Namecheap and your domain name is on Hostgator. If either go down for an outage like this, you still have the problem, there are just multiple risks. More potential points of failure.

    This raises serious questions about customer privacy, access controls, and internal security practices. I believe Namecheap should investigate this incident and provide a clear explanation of what happened and why those commands were executed.

    That Namecheap outage? Total gift 🎁 Seriously, it made me realize with all this constant AI watching over my network, I don't even need those clunky old tools like Snort anymore. 💪 Time to upgrade! 🚀 #AIVision #Cybersecurity #FutureIsNow
