Unfortunately, we do not see any support requests to help work out the issue. It should be mentioned that credit card companies detect strange behavior when trying to pay through VPN since your geographical location on the web is often radically changing.

service was always excellent

service was always excellent, and tech support was always timely. I have used this VPN for years, but lately privacy has become a high priority for me. the only issue I have with this service is all my activities are logged, this is clearly stated in their TOA, but like I said recently I have become more concerned with my online privacy so thats what prompted the need to change. if not for that I would still be a customer!

We're glad you were happy with the service! We just wanted to clarify that we do not log specifics of a user's session traffic (websites visited, downloads, etc.) or directly monitor a user's connection. This is to make sure our users have the highest level of privacy possible while using the service.

Feel free to contact us at support@gotrusted.com if you have any questions or would like further clarification. Our techs would be happy to help.

China is a Big Challenge.

I had trouble to connect my iPhone using GoTrusted VPN when I was in China. The technical staff was very helpful to answer my concerns. She provided me with four different servers in addition to what the website suggested values. However, I could only get connections sometimes not all the time. Apparently, China presented challenges to GoTrusted. I cancelled my service after two months.

improvements needed

Advantage: Connect easily in many places around world.

A few problems:
1) The connection is often not stable. It goes off-lines frequently.

2) Turn wi-fi off every time when it goes off-line.

Good service

This has been a dependable, good service. The price is not the lowest of the market but it is not the highest either.

Just didn't work....for me... in Mexico...

I simply didn't get this service to work for me. I live in Mexico, and via the internet, this simply did not enable me to access as I had hoped. I cancelled, and the service was stopped as requested right away, no problem. I was pleased with that aspect, just disappointed it didn't work.

good but yet to be great....

I'm using GoTrusted VPN mainly in China in order to get access to blocked facebook / google services. The connections overall were good but very often it dropped me out. I know it's unfair to blame all this on GoTrusted - it might be caused by my ISP etc.
Another frustrating issue is with the cancellation process - submit the request via your web pages is unreliable at all - due to the unstable VPN connectivity stated above. I finally made the requestt through when I travelled to another country (i.e., not using your VPN), but it's been 6 months already since I initiated my cancellation in Augest.

That is why I gave a 3 stars rating.

Past its Prime

I live outside the US - and for a long time, GoTrusted got me into all the US sites. But over the past year, the fact that I was using a proxy was detected by every site I wanted to visit. GoTrusted became useless for what I wanted to use it for. The service was always great. The support was always fast and efficient. My only issue is that I cannot access US sites anymore using the GoTrusted service.
