DONT USE
Please do not use. I started to get issue with his VPN when I started to get notifications from authorized sites such as Google(consequently Youtube) MSN, etc that my location was “Romania” despite, setting my IP to USA ones. I went through various verification methods and test to find that while the VPN dashboard was showing a “US” location, the actual location was -=NOT=- US but in fact, Romania. I contacted the company, to be gaslighted, brushed off, and told that “they have no control over where their IP batches come from”. This progressed over months of exchanges. I ran several “leak” tests to find issues, each time…my google would note I was showing as from Romania despite setting my “locations” to various US cities. Google upon registering my location would then change my language etc. I Then manually went into my settings and changed them. This did not fix it as I was told my Google “It goes off your geological location". That each time I go to my google account or search etc, it kept locating my IP as coming from Romania. Now as many of you know, there is a HUGE issue with data theft and ID theft from that country. The fact this company tried to convince me that it was “not something to be concerned with” and “Nothing they could do” is a HUGE RED FLAG. For your safety, Please do not use. I have now reported this company to relevant authorities in my country for investigation for cyber crime and fraud. I have kept every single email from them, I have kept detailed logs of the dates and times of the issues, so they can NOT deny this is a known issue to their company. Your dashboard may be saying you are coming out of a particular state/city but your ACTUAL re-direct is NOT what you think it is.
