Advice Request VPN renewal or ditch? [Poll]

[Ink]

Are you going to renew your VPN subscription?​

What will you do?

I'm not going to renew, and may switch to a Free provider.

 

[Cortex]

I use Mullvad & it's a monthly charge £4 something) flat rate which doesn't change regardless of how many months you buy - I've just bought 6.

Free tiers make me wonder if they start selling your data.

I have a lifetime subscription so I don't really have to worry about it for now. I wouldn't renew my subscription tho.

Windscribe lifetime user here.
Bought cheap lifetime access to Windscribe few years ago so I don't really consider changing it to anything else - especially because I barely use and if I do it's only to access geo restricted content.
I don't really consider VPN as a "must have".

I'm using my VPN on-demand only for special cases, I have been almost always chosen a partially "free" VPN like Windscribe (50GB free per month) or I was just lucky and got one VPN license (1 year/1 device) from giveaways like recently for F-Secure Freedome VPN.

I don't use it very often, if I need it I use Adguard's free VPN.

I belong to the @silversurfer category. Almost never use a VPN. Windscribe (50GB free per month) is more than enough for me.

 

[SeriousHoax]

Same as @silversurfer & @Gandalf_The_Grey but in my case it's Proton VPN.

Windscribe three year licence that I renewed a year ago. I'ts a part of my security apps on my PC and on my phone when I travel.

 

[Thales]

I use AVG's VPN (occasionally) because it is part of the security suite (which I don't use).
It was cheap and valid for 2 years. After that will see but I like dedicated VPN.

 

[Fuzzy_Bunny]

No. I use VPN only for online shopping. Some countries have cheaper prices. I'll just use windscribe free or check vpngate.net

 

[Digmor Crusher]

Windscribe here, 60 gb free a month, more than enough for me as I barely use it.

 

[Minimalist]

I prefer to use paid over free. I've been using Mullvad for some time now and I don't plan to change this.

 

[Divine_Barakah]

I am using Bullet VPN lifetime.

Paid doesn't guarantee your data isn't being sold and free doesn't guarantee it is.

As for the thread question, for me there's no sub to renew. I don't use a VPN very much but when I do it's mainly to bypass geo restriction (Proton free) or very, very occasionally for, ahem, torrenting, when I use my lifetime free 50gb per month Windscribe licence.

Windscribe here, 60 gb free a month, more than enough for me as I barely use it.

Is there a way to get that 60GB free now?

 

[maximus]

I currently use Windscribe, but rarely.

 

[Digmor Crusher]

Is there a way to get that 60GB free now?

I'm not sure, if I remember correctly is what thru a promotion they were running quite some time ago.

 

[FireHammer]

I use currently 6 different Providers, but as they come up for renewal I will keep a few(2) & ditch the rest.
