Private Internet Access Review

I also use btguard and vpn4all and although the others are good for the money you cannot beat this service. Always quick speeds, helpful IM service for chat. Never disconnects either

I’ve had no issues regarding geolocation protection during my 7 days of trial with PIA. However, the mains issues I had were:

-very restrictive NAT on most servers. XBOX rarely gets to connect, their DNS severely limits what you can do online.

– it’s ok for most computer/tablet use but for other devices (game consoles, dedicated media players) it’s not enough

– their support is very slow to understand and slow to reply.

The worst part: there’s no refund like promised! It’s been over two months since I renounced my subscription after the trial (6th day) and even though they acknowledged I am eligible for a refund, there’s been no reaction during all the time (only replies like ‘we’re looking into it’).

i OWN MAC….. they told me that there is not DNS leak protection for the MAC OS….. so the tier 1 support tol me to use Google’s DNS servers via 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and said hundreds of thousands of people use it so they could never track me…. .FUCK THAT! BTW DNS leaks are just as bad as not having a VPN….. they were good on replying back quick and they did have good price.. just missing the mai factor…

I´ve been using for 2 months in two diferent countries, one in South America and the other one in the North. Never had a problem and have never been desconnected. Because of this, I´ve just signed for the one year plan.

Their automatic fraud policy leaves much to be desired. I subscribed to the service just before I left the states to go to Asia for a temp posting. I had no issues with it. While in Asia after I start using it next day I was unable to do so. When emailed they claim it was fraud policy that disabled my account. So I can’t use it in another country? Support was polite and wanted to re enable my account but I decided to cancel and request refund.
