Great VPN Date: Sep 02 2022
Summary: My experience has just been great. I love using this and watching everything not available where I am!
Positive: It's super easy to use, really easy to understand, and it works! I love that it's an extension and I can turn it off and on really easily.
Negative: I literally can't think of any. You can't really connect via more than 1 country it seems. It has also automatically turned back on after a session when I didn't want it to.

Relatively cheap for its features Edited: Dec 16 2020
Summary: Good benefit-cost ratio, was surprised to see many features offered by the pricier VPNs included in this one. You can't choose a specific server to connect to, just the country (and city in some cases), which is good enough for me. Streaming speed has been great so far, using it for Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu.
Positive: Relatively cheap for amount of features offered; blocks ads; works w/ Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime.
Negative: Server choice limited to country, can select city in some cases.

Surfshark is powerful and reliable VPN service provider. Date: Sep 30 2020
Summary: Overall Surfshark is a good buy and comes with very much decent features in affordable prices. Speeds and security and availability on all operating platforms are also one of positives in Surfshark VPN.
Positive: Surfshark is new in the market of VPNs but still provides best features and will compete with the old giants in the market. The price is also very reasonable and specially 2 years subscription at discounted price is really eye catching for SurfShark VPN. Wireguard protocol is another plus added recently by the Surfshark and provides maximum security and connection speeds with ease.
Negative: The issue I faced and notified to customer services of Surfshark too is about split tunneling of applications in TV applications, as they don't detect all the installed apps for white listing purposes.

This is the provider for you if you torrent a lot Date: Jul 10 2020
Summary: Haven't been using this VPN for long, but so far, I'm happy that I ended up choosing this provider. The interface design is pleasing, the app is easy to navigate (I feel like it would be pretty easy to explain how to use this app to my parents, maybe even my grandparents). I prefer torrenting movies, but my sister really wanted to try streaming on Hulu. Because I got a VPN, she was finally able to do it. So far, for both of us, everything worked without interruptions.
Positive: Pretty decent speed, supports P2P, the price is comparatively cheap, can be installed on your home router.
Negative: I have not experienced any drawbacks so far when using this VPN.

Very simple app, works without issues Date: May 26 2020
Summary: I was surprised how pretty this app is, and still, it doesn't 'eat' my phone's battery that much. I mostly use it on my phone as I need to use public WiFi at work. I did try to access Amazon Prime with it at home, everything worked smoothly during the trial, so I went for it in the end.
Positive: The subscription is cheap, you can find a coupon code if you dig around in some forums to make it even more affordable. Doesn't drain my phone battery.
Negative: Not sure if there are any, at least for what I'm using it for. Haven't tried many features but the ones I need work well.

Helps you access Disney+ Date: May 18 2020
Summary: Unfortunately, I started from the hardest to access platform Disney+, instead of Netflix, Hulu, or any other. I was lucky because I found a promotion in a forum, which gave me a discount. I was also happy I had the chance to pay with Bitcoin, didn’t need to do it, but I just wanted to try it out.
Positive: Cheap, can access a lot of streaming platforms (including Disney+), lots of subscription payment options.
Negative: You have to work a little to access Disney+ in order to get an account and be able to pay for their subscription, but in the end, I managed to do it, and that’s the result I was looking for.

Pretty nice VPN software Date: May 07 2020
Summary: I’m a Surfshark user for a bit over a year now. The service had its ups and downs, but it was nothing that the customer support couldn’t fix. I mainly use it to stream on Netflix, but during quarantine, I decided to try out other streaming platforms that are tied to specific regions (Hulu, BBC iPlayer, Sling TV). All these streaming platforms were pretty rad, but I have to admit that Sling TV really impressed me, might have to switch.
Positive: I like that the no logs policy was proven by an audit, also found customer support very helpful when I contacted them.
Negative: I wanted to try the free trial out, I could only find it on the mobile App Store and it was for 7 days. It was enough for me to decide if I liked this VPN though.

Helps to find better prices Date: Apr 16 2020
Summary: After reading their blog, I found that you could get better prices (flights, rentals, and similar stuff) if you use a VPN. Of course, I needed to check if this is true, and it turned out that it is (after quite a bit of trying, I must say). I can plan a trip or two at the most being a broke student stuck in a lockdown, but I’m still pretty happy about the prospect of saving a couple of dollar bills here and there.
Positive: Found cheaper flights, most servers are quite fast, no IP leaks, Internet speed remains pretty consistent
Negative: Needed to play around a bit to find the best servers
