Is expressvpn good to go with?

So I’ve read the posts in this sub and it seems like a very confusing environment here, could anybody please give an honest review about this vpn whether you would go for it? Or if you have been an old customer already are you continuing the same? Does it unblock netflix or other streaming apps? How’s the speed with regards to a 100mbps dl/ul fibre connection? What about the risks? If any.

Avoid at all costs. ExpressVPN was bought out by Kape - a company with literal goons at the top. Even Snowden advised against using ExpressVPN’s services.

Have had Express for a couple years now, I have had a good experience with it overall (monthly subscription). Use it on PC, Mac, and RaspberryPi with no issues. Noticeable change in torrenting but gaming I haven’t seen too much of a difference. Gets me around the blocks on the company network (Spotify, YouTube, etc.). Also, I think the licensed devices went up from 3 to 5 but I haven’t verified. Not sure how secure or not secure my information is as I do think about this a lot (paying someone to keep me anonymous but with a subpoena I’m sure it would be like opening a dictionary and finding me). Overall good experience though and definitely user friendly.

Im one of the least techy people youll encounter. I got a VPN because i lived in china from 2015-2019. I get the feeling that youre not in china so you dont need to worry about that. Happy to discuss that experience if youd like, though.

Since china, ive kept express and it works for me. I dont watch netflix so i dont know about that. But when i want to connect, it connects. Lots of connection options. From a very simple user using it for very simple things, id vouch for it.

Im sure techier people could give a better answer.

Unless you’re connecting somewhere far away, you shouldn’t notice any drop from your connection speed. Just make sure you set protocol to automatic. They have a free trial, you can give it a go

Sorry non related to the main thread. I’m using express mobile but for some reason I can’t seem to find Turkey server. Does anyone else having this issue?

Which other VPNs make their own custom router firmware? (Net gear Nighthawk) That is the main selling point for me

That’s pretty basic. It never occurred to me that way. You’re right!

Nice. Thanks for the review!! Gonna go for it

Was nice to know that surely. Appreciate ur time to answer this.

Thanks mate! I sure will.

Gaming is the need basically!!

I have had the trial sometime back, so I can’t have it now. But back then, gaming was not a problem. Now I need to connect to my nearest server and then get the desired ping.

For payment security I recommend Mullvad. I will be moving to them when my subscription expires in February.

Good then, I don’t have anything else to do other than gaming.

Used the service for two long days, have opted for a refund now. Seems like vpn is not the solution to gaming.
