Not a bad VPN by any means. HOWEVER, try to cancel your recurring subcription on their website and your problems begin. Be warned it's long winded and a really unfriendly process.

Zero stars not an option

Zero stars not an option, or that would have been my rating. I had never heard of IPVanish before I received a text alert that my credit card had been charged $78.xx by IPVanish. I immediately called my card company to report fraudulent activity and canceled the card. My account was refunded and a new card was issued to me. Traveling away from home, I had not taken possession of my new card when I received another text alert that my new card (my card company had furnished the last 4 digits as a courtesy) had just been charged $17.xx, again by IPVanish. I immediately called my card company to once again report fraudulent activity and again canceled the card. I suppose it's possible that IPVanish is being spoofed and that they are innocent of this behavior, but I would be hesitant to do business with a company that allows itself to be put in this position in the first place. I certainly will warn others about my experience and will, myself, have nothing to do with IPVanish in the future, should that possibility ever arise!

Experience with IPVanish.

1. On PC I can only use the older version of the app. The latest version does not work on my Windows 11. As long as the older version works, it's ok. The latest version works on Android TV boxes smoothly.
2. Please, make it possible to connect to a Cuban server. We cannot watch Cuban television without that option. (I am asking even though I know it is next to impossible).
3. Some of the servers are blacklisted and geo-restricted sites do not work with IPVanish, but they work with NordVPN. The opposite happens, too, so I guess it is a question of luck.

Way too expensive and A.I. run.

Works well, easy to use, but after using this VPN service for 3 years @ $31.50 a year, they suddenly wanted to increase to $109.99! After complaining, they magically offered at $36.30 - still a 15% increase. Most of their business is conducted by A.I. so good luck in talking to a human. There are plenty of other VPN's out there at a considerably less cost.

Unfortunately

Unfortunately, my provider keeps blocking my VPN, but this is no fault of your own I just can’t seem to find a solution for this problem

I've used IPVanish for over 5 years now. It's on my laptop, firestick, tablet, and phone. It offers fantastic flexibility as far as choosing my source server. Very convenient to change my country if I find a website that is blocking the USA for example. I also use the tunneling feature a lot. I'll let Netflix and Peacock through without VPN since I pay for those. I really rely on IPVanish on my phone for when I'm connected to open WiFi. Makes working from Starbucks secure! IPVanish gives you great features at a fabulous price. Will be staying with them for the foreseeable future!

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience with us. I am very sorry to hear you are having difficulty connecting to IPVanish on your Fire Stick in your basement. We understand how frustrating it can be when technology doesn't work as expected, especially when you're trying to relax and stream your favorite content.

Basements can sometimes present a challenge for Wi-Fi signals, which can in turn affect the stability of a VPN connection. While there could be a few factors at play we want to ensure we get to the bottom of this for you. To provide you with the most effective support and prioritize your issue, please contact us directly at management@ipvanish.com. When you email us, if you could reference your review, it will help us to quickly understand the situation and dedicate the necessary resources to assist you.

We appreciate your patience and look forward to helping you get a stable and secure connection.

Sincerely,

The IPVanish Management Team

I highly recommend IPvanish....Do not pass it up

I highly recommend IPvanish. It's a nice workaround for your local internet provider that restricts you. Certain content is blocked through your internet company. I now can be at my home in the United States and can watch British TV. I've also noticed my gaming connection is more stable.! You're able to be incognito when you use IPVaish.

We are very concerned to hear that money has been deducted from your bank account for an IPVanish subscription that you did not purchase. This is a serious matter, and we want to help you resolve it immediately.

It sounds like you may be experiencing an unauthorized charge or possibly a case of identity theft or a compromised account.

To investigate this thoroughly and assist you, we need you to contact us directly. Please send an email to management@ipvanish.com with the following information, if possible:

The exact amount of the transaction.
The date of the transaction.
How the charge appears on your bank statement (e.g., the specific merchant name).
Any transaction IDs or reference numbers.
The email address you believe might be associated with the charge, even if it's not yours.
Any other details that could help us identify the unauthorized transaction.

We will prioritize your request and work with you to understand how this happened and ensure the issue is resolved. If it is indeed an unauthorized charge, we will guide you through the necessary steps to secure your account and assist with any refund process.
