My First Domain: Absolute Disaster (Vent)

I am trying to purchase a domain from namecheap. While I was in the middle of purchasing the domain, when I hit enter, an error message popped up saying I was logged out. So I go through the entire purchase again, and an error message popped up again stating that I didn't have enough money. I checked my account, all the money I had left to buy the domain was gone. I have been waiting with namecheap's support for about 15 minutes now looking for an answer. I'm just absolutely frustrated and upset because all of the money I scrounged up to become premium AND have my domain is gone and I don't even have a domain to help me soar into success. The entire day I've been feeling like a failure and now the domain issue is like cherry on a crappy sundae. I just don't really know what to do at this point. Vent over.

Hi Cindy, I understand how you feel. A glitch, annoying and frustrating for sure! It is a stumble in your online journey. I wish I could say you won't have any more of those, but it comes with the online territory.

Have you tried Namecheap live chat?

https://www.namecheap.com/support/live-chat/general.aspx

Have your username and email handy.

First, I suggest you log in to your Namecheap account and check under Domains to see if your new domain name is in fact listed, and also check the balance in your Namecheap account.

Don't worry, Namecheap will do the right thing.

Good luck. Post again and let us know what happens. ~Jude

Yeah I did. Thanks for reaching out. My account restored the full amount, and I just bought my domain at last. I couldn't be happier right now!

And thanks for giving me insight as to what might have happened. I never thought of that.
