2024-09-29 | Vinny Bone-Jones | Got offered a trial for 99 cents, wasn't happy with my service, so I went to cancel. You are unable to, either from the app or the website, so I thought that it would be canceled at the end of the trial, like othet services. Nope, now I'm out nearly 60 bucks for the next two week. Not very trustworthy. If it's that hard/confusing to end a subscription, it's easy to imagine our data being easily shared to those, who made it so we needed a VPN | |
2024-07-30 | Amir Ji | It's stopped working in Iran It's more than 2 years I use purevpn and it was one of the best in this category, suddenly it stopped working 4 days ago,I try different protocols and ports, nothing changed at all,please fix that problem, thanks for your support and help. "Edited" : I downgrade the app to 8.63.33 and everything works fine,so please update the app and fix the problem,I will appreciate it. | |
2023-04-08 | Aditya A. Joshi | Over 3 months spent in China in the past 7 months and this is the only vpn that worked the best. Doesn't work consistently and doesn't work in all cities but that seems to be the norm for China. And every once in a while, just stops working even in "good" cities. So far it's served it's purpose and it always works with LTE, it's only hotel wifi that sometimes starts blocking vpn. Customer service is great. Some good suggestions occasionally that work. China is difficult so you do what you can. | |
2022-10-23 | Yian Lu | After using this VPN provider for a few days, and in China, I've come to realize it's not as reliable as I thought or hope it would be. There's not exactly just one server that I can consistently rely on day to day, or even hour to hour, for steady or fast connection. I have to try multiple servers before I can usually connect, which does take a few minutes. And the server that's recommended based on my location isn't guaranteed to work either. Whole thing is really a hit-or-miss situation. | |
2022-07-30 | Greg Austin | After 2 years it's still not working, the interruption as well. You can find my initial concern below. This app does not allow u to stream with Hulu or Amazon, so practically useless. Still no able to use after 1 year and they haven't credited me or offered an extension of service for all the time I have not been able to use it. Please don't subscribe for 90% off or even for free. | |
2021-11-13 | Kyle Turk | It is a solid VPN! I've been using them for several years and it's been good to me. The customer service is great, patient, and extremely helpful. Unlike most companies they actually give good deals for existing customers. I have it on my android device, I had it on my iPhone in the past, it's on my firestick, and my macbook. | |
2021-05-26 | Force Multiplier | Does a great job. Has had some hiccups on certain trading platforms, but that was short-lived and could have easily been a conflict with my phone's internal software. I like this VPN so far, and have high hopes for it to continue. Orks flawlessly on my personal PC,, and have experienced no issues whatsoever.. I'd recommend PureVPN at this point without hesitation. | |
2021-02-01 | Cat NotmyLastname | This is an inexpensive vpn and seems to do its job well for a good price if you never turn off your device or lose your connection (say, to wifi, if that's what you use). The problem comes in when you do go offline and reconnect later. Although there is a "reconnect" option that any person paying for a vpn would select, this slider is merely decorative. Your device will NEVER reconnect to your VPN automatically and once you disconnect and reconnect, you are vulnerable to hackers. Beware. | |
2020-12-25 | Adam Schroder | I switched from expressVPN because pure VPN had better prices. I'm pretty disappointed I'm the app quality overall. I usually have to restart the app for the UI to refresh that it is connected to a specific region and often the UI gets stuck. All that being said, it does 'work'...it just feels like a cheaper VPN...which I guess it is. Hoping to see the app quality improve a bit. | |
2020-12-08 | Break Bomb | Absolute trash. Wasted 40 minutes trying to get (what should be a 2-minute) signup process to work. I've used CyberGhost & IPVanish for years now so no, it's not me. PayPal subscription applies, app does not let you connect saying you have to renew the sub. When you go to renew, you get an error that your invoice has already been processed. And the loop goes on. Also, username/password were never offered - had to resort to "forgot password" to bootleg-make one. Also, they log info ("for quality" |
