    @Namecheap Can’t wait to claim all this compensation for loss of earnings! I’ve lost out big time today. Definitely moving my service absolute ****** CRAP

    @Namecheap @tiagouy Your site and your chat is down too so you are not available at all!

    @brandreviewsng Absolutely. I agree. Am I upset? Yes. But we all are… I’m not going anywhere, but I am going to drill down on building system resiliency that’s damn near impermeable. #NameCheap

    Again with an outage by @Namecheap - DDoS and a power outage feels like they're working with a single point of failure :/

    @YashHustle_22 @itskamrankhan meanwhile Namecheap is down.

    @Namecheap You probably got a ddos attack because people are mad at your HORRIBLE redesign of your email service. It is literally the worst I have ever used.

    @Namecheap , this down time is too long.

  • TheHN1C

    What is wrong with my web host namecheap. My websites are temporarily down. What’s going on. 😡

  • HichamAlm1
    Lightsoul (@HichamAlm1) reported

    @Namecheap Why is this taking so long??? We are running a business here, and sites are down for hours in the middle of the week

  • badrDev_
    badr (@badrDev_) reported

    Why has @Namecheap been down for more than 4 hours? This is completely unacceptable. Our websites and services are inaccessible, impacting our customers and business. We need transparency, a clear explanation, and an accurate ETA for full restoration—not silence. #NamecheapDown

    @borlandts @Namecheap I don't think they can respond to email, it's all down.

  • VoiceOfVipin_02
    Vipin (@VoiceOfVipin_02) reported

    Hi @Namecheap Team, Any update on the ongoing service outage? Many of us are unable to access critical services. Do you have an ETA for when everything will be fully restored? #Namecheap #Outage

    Aug 13, 2026 at 14:20 UTC: Namecheap status update. Following reports of downtime and slow performance, the incident has moved to recovery monitoring as signals return to normal levels.

    @sojourner____ @Namecheap Yeah There was a power outage in Phoenix USA It affected a whole of companies like this I have Namecheap and A2 Both are down

  • mytrickpages
    My Trick Pages (@mytrickpages) reported

    @Namecheap really. I have all my clients website and emails more than 40 sites and over 60 mails everything is down.

  • abbasi_yazan
    Yazan Abbasi (@abbasi_yazan) reported

    @Namecheap This is unacceptable. ALL my websites & VPSs are down, clients are affected and I’m losing money. “Power outage” is not enough. Where is the redundancy and backup power? No ETA, no real explanation. I expect answers AND compensation for this outage.

  • NunoHRMagalhaes
    Nuno Rodrigues Magalhães (@NunoHRMagalhaes) reported

    @SpaceshipStatus @spaceship @Namecheap Something similar had happened to me before at another company. The cause of the downtime was a major storm, but the issue was quickly resolved as they were hosted in three different regions around the globe.

  • Gtwy
    𝕘 𝕥 𝕨 𝕪 (@Gtwy) reported

    @netblocks none of our domains' DNS is hosted on namecheap, they are only our registrar. i don't seem to have any sites down. not sure what the implications of our registrar being offline for an extended period of time will be?

  • theartworkstory
    Crime & Canvas (@theartworkstory) reported

    @Namecheap My websites have been down for hours from it.

  • borlandts
    Tim Borland (@borlandts) reported

    @Namecheap My VPS being offline is understandable for a power outage, but being unable to access my account to change DNS servers for domains to recover services is unacceptable. I just renewed my VPS, but it may be time to migrate to a different provider. No response to email is a bad look

  • dsharma9
    Deepak (@dsharma9) reported

    @Namecheap It's ridiculous, website down for 3 hours now and emails too.

  • GlobalSola
    Sola Mathew (@GlobalSola) reported

    More than 3 hours Namecheap down and no solutions yet. Loosing customers for many businesses!

  • DonMAGA2024
    Don MAGA (@DonMAGA2024) reported

    @Namecheap The problem is Namecheap’s architecture allows a single outage to take down everything at once. This is not how modern infrastructure is supposed to work. Call it piss-poor management.

  • shahnawazkits
    Mohammad Shahnawaz (@shahnawazkits) reported

    @Namecheap Our server is down because of you yours too shame one you 4000-5000 crore INR revenue what the hell i do have 3 vps 4-5 domain useless people you are

  • karem_alwhab
    Karim Abd Alwhab (@karem_alwhab) reported

    10 years I have been using @Namecheap And they always impress me with the quality of their technical support and their servers. A big problem that doesn't need to be done today for us and our customers, but that doesn't lose our trust in them. I hope this problem will soon.

  • dide_oluwa
    Dide (@dide_oluwa) reported

    @Namecheap WTF is going on?????

  • Victual_Bro
    VictualBro (@Victual_Bro) reported

    @Namecheap This is getting frustrating. Y'all have been a solid solution, which is why I'm not really pissed off. However, no meaningful updates besides "power outage" for going on 5-hours now. Give us some information and estimates so we know what to plan for.
