Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • stratis_derm Stratis-Dermanoutsos (@stratis_derm) reported

    Had to take down my portfolio page. It was hosted on Github Pages on /portfolio. When applying a custom domain from Namecheap, I could not, no matter what I did, send it to /portfolio again. It always deployed itself on the main page. Anyone can help with this?

  • alanbush al (@alanbush) reported

    @xaeth @Namecheap I used to use them. They were fine until I had an issue and then their support was absolutely non-existent. I think you'd be fine with non-critical projects, but I wouldn't trust them with anything I wanted to make money off of.

  • charlesnsystems charlesandsystems (@charlesnsystems) reported

    GoDaddy tells you your **** domain may be worth 900$. They renew your domain at 3-5 times the costs it costs at @Namecheap. Is this the difference between a private and public company?

  • olaniyimichael4 Excel (@olaniyimichael4) reported

    @GoDaddy hello, I'm trying to get a domain from your platform but having serious issue with payment. Kindly help me please. #domainregistral @GoDaddy @Namecheap

  • olaniyimichael4 Excel (@olaniyimichael4) reported

    @Namecheap @GoDaddy In as much as GoDaddy is not responding, I'm switching to Namecheap immediately. I want to buy a domain name, can I pay from from my PayPal account directly?? That's the issue I'm having

  • mikiobraun Mikio Braun, still wearing 😷 (@mikiobraun) reported

    @Namecheap Thank you very much! Also to clarify, it wasn't your fault the site went dark for a while, that was because I forgot to handle the transfer and df decided to shut it down a bit prematurely.

  • Raantuva Ari is doing it out of spite (@Raantuva) reported

    Finally registered my ******* domain(s) after almost a year of fighting with Namecheap Now to migrate them to the hosting service I wanted...tomorrow

  • SteveWebb steve.webb (@SteveWebb) reported

    @HNSDOMAINS @Namecheap @Porkbun At the Gateway Registry, the TLD owner decides. TLD/ isn't an SLD so that's not an issue.

  • decryptlyfe Damián (@decryptlyfe) reported

    @mvortiz Wow wtf @Namecheap "none of your business" should be the answer here. It's why I've only bought domains through Google domains lately. **** namecheap

  • LindsBecca Lindsay Rebecca Hogg (@LindsBecca) reported

    Thank you to Khrystyna Klimenkova and Dmitry Matiushkov from @Namecheap support. Initially was told by other support chats and email that my ALL site data was lost in their server migration, "they can only suggest I start a new website" LOL. Thankfully to these two, it's back up!

  • PeepoHNS PeepoHNS/ (@PeepoHNS) reported

    Once Namecheap gets fully situated with Namebase I feel support is going to be outstanding with very little issues. I've been a customer of Namecheap for years and they never let me down. I really do have faith in them! $HNS

  • DrJimmyStar Jimmy Star (@DrJimmyStar) reported

    @Namecheap having huge difficulty with hacker who is stealing my site support not helpful at all sent a ticket for help very distraught and Nikita Kasyan is not real bright

  • yanis__42 Yanis 🔭 (@yanis__42) reported

    @Namecheap It’s possible with another service ?

  • TFujiwara86 TFujiwara (@TFujiwara86) reported

    @Namecheap Can you take down this domain ASAP? It's a cryptoscam promoted via bots in Telegram.

  • bubbletiplister Tiplister for Bubble (@bubbletiplister) reported

    @StitchedOn great idea and customer base to launch it on. Have always liked namecheap

  • YoungbloodJoe Joe Youngblood (@YoungbloodJoe) reported

    @EddiesTech @Porkbun @Namecheap I'm a Namecheap customer, that price was accurate as of the last renewal I had (day before publishing).

  • greggpress Gregg Press (@greggpress) reported

    @Namecheap Is that because your corporation would rather make a few extra bucks then take obvious evidence and block people who break the law from using your service? Very confusing statement.

  • MikeRussEntsUK MikeRussEntsUK (@MikeRussEntsUK) reported

    @Namecheap All TALK have you helped us today NO!! Do to all my Colleagues around the World who work in the Entertainments Industry, Showbusiness They are like World Gov shut down by the courts during the height of the pandemic leave you with no money but still expect you to pay. #STAYCLEAR

  • basscomm basscomm (@basscomm) reported

    @Namecheap I think you misread my response. Your tweet indicates that the service is 0.68 cents a month. That's a little over half a cent a month. Or $0.0068

  • dubstard Mich (@dubstard) reported

    @Namecheap @Tesla @Namecheap same scam /wealthcapitalaps.com The ones listed above are not down yet.

  • Ibrahim__thinks Ibrahim | WordPress Doc (@Ibrahim__thinks) reported

    @PeterJev @garanntor You should ask them to restore a recent backup and then move to another hosting when it's back. I had one domain with them and might be transferring out too . I only trust Namecheap with my hosting because of their top notch customer support.

  • zoYaNx ZOYANX (@zoYaNx) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    @Namecheap your domain search is defunct since months. I never bothered to report it as I thought it would be fixed eventually. Your aftermarket api is causing errors leaving it in a loop and doesn’t let rest of the domain load it’s status.

  • snwokenk Sam N (@snwokenk) reported

    @Namecheap please can you check your service. 2 of my domains A records are mixed up, when I check through dnschecker.

  • jin_marq jin_marq (@jin_marq) reported

    @TeaAprilAuthor @Namecheap Text @antiticol now to fix your account immediately

  • averagecontract Taro (🧋,🧋) (@averagecontract) reported

    @this_ting @Namecheap awk i used bluehost and wordpressorg can their support come find me

  • _frankschaefer Frank (@_frankschaefer) reported

    Absolutely despise @GoDaddy their service is so clunky and they’re scam artists. Use @Namecheap or Google Domains instead.

  • AmmarNova Nova (@AmmarNova) reported

    Having issues with DNS somewhere between @Namecheap and @Netlify in the UK

  • MREntsGroupLtd Mike Russ Entertainments Group LTD (@MREntsGroupLtd) reported

    A Message to all our Colleagues who work in the Performing Arts or Entertainments Ind. don't have a website or emails from @Namecheap doesnt support those who work in Performing Arts or Entertainments Ind. I am talking to the Entire World DONT DEAL WITH THEM!!

  • MiTRamiyer mitramiyer (@MiTRamiyer) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Been a long-time customer of Namecheap. They're higher priced and have WORSE customer service. I'm trying to transfer one domain out from them - been chatting for 30 mins but no auth code. They make it difficult to transfer out (?) POOR VALUE FOR MONEY

  • xogutu CEH Master | OCP | Top 1% @Tryhackme.com (@xogutu) reported
