My VPN package is going up - Looking for Recommendations - Advice.

[Captain Disorderly]

Ive been using PIA ( Private Internet Access ) for a few years now and not had any problems . Its nearly time to renew my PIA yearly 12 month package and Ive just seen this ..

 

We would like to inform you that as of Oct 15, 2024, the price of our yearly plan will increase to USD $49.99. This was not an easy decision. We have always tried to keep our prices as low as possible for customers whilst operating a globally leading VPN service. However, in order to continue to provide the most reliable and competitive service possible, we must now increase our prices.

 

In the past the same yearly 12 month package cost was ..... USD $29.00 . 

 

I know that if I subscribe to a different plan with PIA  ( 2 years or 5 Years ) I could possibly get the cost down , but I would rather just keep a yearly plan .

 

I use a VPN mainly for torrenting and privacy .

 

I was hoping to locate another VPN provider for a better yearly package cost .

 

Any recommendation , suggestion or advice please.

I have used NAMECHEAP FastVPN for 2 years. It works great. It costs $1.00 per month, 12.00 per year.

are AN members spies or something that they need this, or is this to enable the hub of pron and other sites that are 'blocked'

I use Dashlane password manager - excellent. Theynow give you a free VPN as well called Hotspot Shield.

 

I did use Express VPN for a long time but now their prices are a ripoff.

You will get what you pay, or don't pay for. When it comes to VPNs there are many out there, some are very dodgy at stealing and/or sharing your data and where you connect. For the extra few bucks, go with the 'good' ones, eg Nord or Express.
