2021 VPN Service Provider Reviews

IP Vanish VPN

• Cost: $6.49 to $10.00 per month
• Money back guarantee within 7 days

Using IP Vanish VPN keeps your Internet connection completely private with secure VPN tunneling. Your IP address and your physical location are completely masked, which helps keep marketing companies, search engines, governments, and hackers from being able to analyze your Internet "footprint".

Another nice feature of the IP Vanish VPN service is that it can make Voice over IP (VoIP) phone calling much cheaper by making it appear that your connection is originating in countries in which the VoIP has lower rates. Whether this seems ethical to do is up to you and that top-hatted cricket named Jiminy sitting on your shoulder.

If you live in a country with heavy censorship laws and/or government monitoring of communications, this is a good service to use to ensure that you can chat, browse, and do video calls free from interference and arrest. Because IP Vanish doesn't keep any logs or records about its users' activities, you need not worry about a subpoena or search warrant outing you.

Certain ISPs will do a deep inspection of the data packets you transmit and receive. They do this to limit your bandwidth on video sites, torrent sites, gaming, and other bandwidth-intensive activities. With IP Vanish, your packets can't be inspected this way and your ISP can't make a determination as to which traffic to throttle.

IP Vanish VPN gives you a 7-day money-back guarantee in case you want to give it a spin before committing to a monthly, tri-monthly, or annual plan. Buy the $10.00 per month if you only want to be billed monthly, the $8.99 per month plan if you don't mind being billed every three months, or the $6.49 per month plan if it's more convenient to be billed yearly.

IP Vanish has unlimited bandwidth and unlimited server switching. But, it only allows up to 5 simultaneous connections on multiple devices, so if you're looking for unlimited connection ability, try another service.

IP Vanish VPN operates on Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android devices and on an unlimited number of devices all at the same time.

Support for IP Vanish VPN is 24/7 and obtained via online support articles and FAQs and email only. No phone or chat support is available.

On the Better Business Bureau website, IP Vanish has an "F" rating with 27 total customer complaints and 14 customer reviews. All but one of the reviews is negative. Review feedback includes problems logging into accounts, refund refusals, slow Internet speeds with the software, continued charges after cancellation, nonresponse to emails, not honoring promotional prices, not actually creating or losing an account after payment receipt, and software not working on all devices. While IPVanish has responded to many of the complaints, the BBB is not convinced they are doing enough to support their customers.

Other review websites seem to confirm the BBB reviewers' complaints, saying the company is just out to get money without providing real service and support. They dislike the poor connectivity and speed, asking customers for social security number and other sensitive data (a claim that is disputed by positive reviewers, but still confusing), buffering problems, and lack of support for certain services and devices in various countries.

With so many problems and complaints to documented on the Better Business Bureau website, IP Vanish should be at the very bottom of your list of VPN services to try.
