So free. One remark, to get access to that PP account I have to use the VPN and let it land in Holland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then maybe after one month if you don't pay for it would PayPal be able to know that you are in Thailand ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, sorry. I see. You really do need to use it every time. So my question is still: I wonder if a free vpn would be alright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paiman Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 You could install the OPERA Browser. There is a VPN integrated and the continent for VPN setting can be selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if the payment is made in one month? What will happen?I think there are few free software that can do this, maybe it will only provide free service for the first month, and then you need to pay for it.

I heard Firefox may be have a free VPN service now too, but I haven't tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Triangle Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Windscribe VPN, 10GB a month free, I used it for a few weeks free, then upgraded to the Pro version, no pressure to buy but 10GB wasn't enough for my needs, the yearly upgrade was about 1500 Baht. Give the free version a go, if you only use it for PayPal then 10Gb maybe enough ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlyai Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Free VPN? So you want to set up a Very Private Network or a Virtual P N but you want to use something that is internet Free? With all the scams on the internet out there, why would you take the chance of using a free application to do banking? Doesn't make sense to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of using free software for your banking is not advisable. A real VPN is only 50 quid a year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
