Sorry to say that but one of the worst support, they simply ignoring me.- My account manager email does not exist.- First level support contacted at the end of Jan and got a generic reply (27 Jan) "Moving forward your case will be handled by an escalation team and they will get this email sent to the right department. They will get back to you directly as soon as possible."- No response since then! Even though I emailed them several times politely asking about the status. Request number - ...

Bad management and support team
I am writing it with a sad mind. you know why?because i expected they will not play like Torguard (my old vpn). But they did same. I have a speed issue problem with Singapore server.

I had a lifetime account for years purchased through the actual company website, they have since merged with pango.co and now my lifetime account is gone. They are asking me to pay again for the same service just months prior I had full access to. I can still log into my account no problems. Soon as I try to use my paid for lifetime account it states I need to purchase a "basic" plan. I had a premium plan that was good and used for years. I was logged in and changed my password within the ...

Software Doesn't Run
I checked these reviews before buying this premium service and everything looked good. Everything worked fine for 1 day. The next day I opened the app and it said 'Something went wrong, we are working to fix this' no matter how long this is left it never works. The only way to use the software is to delete and redownload every day, which is ridiculous. I even tried to talk to customer service who asked non-relevant questions, They don't know how to fix it the software is simply broken.
