Not useful in middle east Don't think about it if you want to use it to bypass internet filtering. I buy nordvpn to use it when I travel to countries with restrictions, especially middle-eastern ones. It simply doesn't work. I don't think their service is designed for such purposes, since you can find free VPNs on app store that work with great speed. The exact experience is: You try 20-30 different servers, none of them work (the auto select mode doesn't work). Once in a blue moon, one server might work, but the speed reminds you of the time that GPRS was king. You might think it's generally internet speed issue, but I used a random free service, and I could get decent speeds around 40Mbps. I created a ticket and they gave me address of several servers. After trying them for around an hour, none works. I want to warn people who are travelling, hoping nordVPN to work: be more prepared.

I’ve been using Nord VPN for the past… I’ve been using Nord VPN for the past three years as an expat living overseas. It’s been extremely helpful for personal and professional use. It’s been important to add layers of security as well as insuring access to what I need. Additionally, it’s always nice to be able to stream what you want!

This isn't a NordVPN issue This isn't a NordVPN issue, but I notice that websites are turning the tables. I find I often have to prove 'I'm human' or I have to pause protection to stream radio. I believe this is different sites efforts to push back against VPNs. From a functional VPN point of view, I find Nord to be great.

I recently travelled to Singapore and… I recently travelled to Singapore and was unable to access a few Australian sites using my Nordvpn account. I have encountered the same issues in South Korea and Japan. Don't even get me started on trying to access sites when in China.

Excellent VPN Service This has been my VPN service for at least five years now, and it is well worth it. The service is reliable with many VPN choices to use and connect to. The connections are almost always perfect, and when they aren't it's always a quick fix to try a different one. The PC app and mobile android app have received nice updates through the years, and both function very well. The customer support is also reliable, responsive, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this service to anyone in need of a VPN.
