Namecheap Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • malwrandpickles MalwareAndPickles (@malwrandpickles) reported

    @vysecurity @Namecheap From my observations they have started taking down phishing sites when discovered. Even done a few for me when I reported via twitter, with screenshot and link. Which to me is a great effort from previously.

  • 0xKirb AJ (@0xKirb) reported

    @Namecheap - someone has broken into your privateemail servers, again. Last time I figured it was somehow my bad (admittedly) password for SMTP, but today I see it's happening again, even with a 84+ char random password. Not only that, but it's not coming from the web panel

  • Zynnwood Wood (@Zynnwood) reported

    @pepesgrandma @Namecheap @GoDaddy This is exactly how it should work. If Godaddy wants to be woke they can turn to ****. If you have a website move to a new domain hosting service.

  • LilyMeade Lily ♥️ shop LaurieMakes! (@LilyMeade) reported

    @KailiaSage You don’t have to switch if it’s working for you! But if you do feel like you’d like something different, let me know. I’d be happy to help you even if you don’t want namecheap (I’m not an affiliate with them or anything).

  • MinniexScarlet FuckYeahMinnieScarlet (@MinniexScarlet) reported

    @melatoninthroat namecheap and it comes with an identity protector service for free

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @STT60861270 Hello, per our check, the selcdn[.]ru domain is neither registered nor hosted with Namecheap. Please contact the corresponding hosting provider and Registrar to resolve the issue.

  • malwrandpickles MalwareAndPickles (@malwrandpickles) reported

    @vysecurity @Namecheap We treat all attackers as genuine until proven otherwise. Which means if it is a clone of a company website serving malicious docs for example, any and all available means of taking that down will be used including DMCA takedown. Sometimes this will burn a legitimate op.

  • johnsw John Williams (@johnsw) reported

    @Namecheap And why should I need to do this at all? I have only one card and it’s the default. Seriously, please fix this. Don’t just apologise for the frustration and do nothing about it.

  • roliverio Julio C. Ortega "Roliverio" (@roliverio) reported

    @Namecheap The thing is, implementing these features should be a no-brainer once you have DNSSEC in place, please do us a favor and give us TLSA support, most of us wishing to take advantage of DANE and privacy really need it. /cc @NamecheapCEO

  • TarantulaYoung Arvin Foroutan (@TarantulaYoung) reported

    @Laurie_Garrett GoDaddy is actually one of the worst companies. Do not be fooled Laurie. Namecheap is the better solution. Don't be fooled for one second by them.

  • cmjrees Chris Rees (@cmjrees) reported

    @Namecheap Hi Namecheap, have you fixed this bug yet? Just wondering three years later if your dynamic DNS service is still functionally useless as it was before I left.

  • johnsw John Williams (@johnsw) reported

    @Namecheap Ok this bit of UI is crappy. Editing the card doesn’t show the option to make a card usable for renewing. I have to click another option hidden in the drop down

  • Endurength Adrian McFarlane (@Endurength) reported

    @Namecheap I am currently on with chat support, they are not supporting or helping with the issue. I have never had this amount of trouble accessing my account that I paid for, that I created, that belongs to me!

  • bunnymaid bunny (@bunnymaid) reported

    Ever felt the need to just buy a German Driving License? httQs://fuhrerscheindienstleistungen24hrs.com/ None of that tedious learning to drive crap, just pay your money and you can drive! Mentioning no names: @Namecheap

  • mike_gilbert Mike Gilbert 🇺🇸 (@mike_gilbert) reported

    @mmpadellan FUN FACT: You can switch all your domain names from @GoDaddy to @Namecheap and save a considerable amount of money. You’ll also get better service and not be censored or subject to cancellation. I did it a year ago with one call.

  • vysecurity Vincent Yiu 🐤 (@vysecurity) reported

    What’s up with @Namecheap shutting down domains under legal and abuse? But there’s not even an explanation as to what the accusations are?

  • cryptogratees CryptograTees™ (@cryptogratees) reported

    @jgarzik @Namecheap @EasyWP It's a fantastic platform. The only downfall is terrible performance for ecom. If you get hit w traffic spikes it's no bueno, and general UX is slow. Makes Shopify vs WooCom decision for BTC merch irritating.

  • TaiKamiya101 Tai Kamiya (@TaiKamiya101) reported

    @Namecheap I will give FTP another try but that was just as slow as downloading it via Chrome.

  • roliverio Julio C. Ortega "Roliverio" (@roliverio) reported

    @Namecheap Of course is possible, the thing is, your team has not invested enough time on fixing not only support for TLSA, but DNSSEC RR handling (which is more urgent). Supposedly, TLSA record support has been on your priority list since 2014. We really need DANE!

  • ThrowAw70207174 Joseph C (@ThrowAw70207174) reported

    @Namecheap It appears after I made this tweet, the scammers took their abusive content down, I will create a new ticket and dm the ID once I see this abusive content again. Thanks for the reply

  • pepesgrandma Bad Kitty For Congress 😼🌹 (@pepesgrandma) reported

    @scott_smallbiz @GoDaddy Namecheap support is off the walls.

  • alebrelle Alebrelle (@alebrelle) reported

    @AlejoP_47 @Namecheap Yes, but adding any bar at all is better than having no bar. It will slow some offenders down.

  • csaba_kissi Csaba Kissi ⚡ (@csaba_kissi) reported

    @RohitGulam Using Namecheap for maybe 15 years already and they never disappointed me

  • ShingoTamai Shingo Tamai (@ShingoTamai) reported

    @Namecheap On August 7th I contacted your abuse dept about a compromised site hosting a fake Office 365 login page. This resulted in ticked # UQH-617-35819. Almost 1 month later the site is still up and the ticket is still waiting for an answer. Please take the website down.

  • roliverio Julio C. Ortega "Roliverio" (@roliverio) reported

    @Namecheap Of course is possible, the thing is, your team has not invested enought time on fixing not only support for TLSA, but DNSSEC RR handling (which is more urgent). Supposedly, TLSA record support has been on your priority list since 2014. We really need DANE!

  • m1ru1 @m1ru1 (@m1ru1) reported

    @vysecurity @Namecheap SOC’s response task of taking down phish site is also part of RT assessment?

  • therealjcali J.Cali (@therealjcali) reported

    @SayonaraMarina1 @catturd2 And you can transfer any domain name to any other registrar like let’s say.. namecheap. They don’t own ****.

  • SolSquiggle SolSquiggle (@SolSquiggle) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Filed a report. Problem is, this will go fast unless domain will be prevented from redirecting. Hope you are there to help prevent theft.

  • 0xKirb AJ (@0xKirb) reported

    @Namecheap Unfortunately no. I will not be wasting my time with support again. I'll be switching to @ProtonMail, who I know is reliable, and trustworthy.
