If this was lifetime of VPN - torrent or big downloads, I can kinda see it...but the price tag would have to be a little bigger. But, comeon, any technical person knows that torrents will rip through your available bandwidth. |

VPN4Life quickly refunded me when I asked, and even said in their "software delivery" email that refunds could be processed simply by replying to the software delivery email.
Also, the site is pretty basic. No malware that I can tell, but quite scammy.
Personally, I wish there was a VPN where you could buy GBs of bandwidth for a set price, then use them whenever. Maybe 25 cents per GB if you buy $10 worth, 20 if you buy $20, 10 if you buy $50. Cogent network would be fine  |

Its called HTTPS, or wait everyone complains about MITM attacks (even though that really couldn't happen in a VPN scenario). So you would pay lets say $10/5GBs from your ISP and $1/GB from VPN R' Us? Looks like these costs will build up pretty quickly if you ask me. |

| I'm not paying $2 per GB to my ISP, more like 25 cents per GB. And if my traffic is valuable enough to be routed over a VPN, sure I'll pay a little extra change to do so. Intertubes cost money, yaknow? |

Of course they're giving out refunds. Thats a lawsuit waiting to happen. If you want some extra "security" on the internet and your a Mac or PC user try, PeerGaurdian. Its free, up to date, and shit as far as I can tell... it works.

1 edit | Would it really sell if true?
I've got some good capacity/hardware setup to run such a service, but would people really pay for it? I mean, you VPN and then so what? What makes a real difference anyway if an ISP is going to throttle a service, wouldn't they target the "IP address with 10,000 simultaneous connections" first or just block the VPN service altogether if they wanted to?
How much would you be willing to pay/already pay for an open VPN service?  |

Isn't this like putting a straw inside a straw? This will still likely count against your ISP's cap if they have one. |

said by JJV :Relakks offers a cheap service. There is a free trial. » https:// www.relakks.com/ agreed, I use them and it's only about $65/yr to renew. Although if you do renew your service I would suggest you use IE for the transaction or have a really good translator for firefox.
Had I used IE I probably would not have struggled near as much to get the renewal done.
