Fast & Efficiant
May 13, 2023

I was experiencing difficulties using the P2P and Double VPN mode, the connection wouldn't work, so I emailed NordVPN customer service explaining my whole situation as I just downloaded the app on my MacOS.

I received a response via email within 2 hours with all the steps I should use to install properly NordVPN (As I didn't set up it well) and advised me on which protocol to use whenever I need to use a different VPN mode such as P2P or Double VPN.

Thank you Jose Vertigo for your help and thank you Nord for your excellent service!

NordVPN has been fantastic
May 13, 2023

I've been using NordVPN for about a year now, and I recently came into an issue with the compatibility of my device and the VPN. I deleted the version that was compatible with my device and tried to update it to the new version, only to realize that I couldn't use it, and that NordVPN no longer supported older devices.

Support was super helpful and helped me despite that fact, and my VPN is again working! Nord has never given me any problems and now I can again work no matter where I am in the world.

Needless to say, I'm very happy with NordVPN and so far, it's the only online service in which I've bought the 2-year plan. Thanks Nord.

And I thank NordVPN for challenges to prove myself before resolving the Google Authenticator 2FA issue.

I had a really bad experience with NordVPN. It took constant emailing back and forth to get the product working with Australia servers. To their credit they kept coming back with tips for handling the problem but one at a time over the course of an entire month instead of giving me all the tools to get the product working up front. It never did work successfully 100 % of the time. It was a constant struggle. But the worst part is how they handled my cancellation. They charged me for the following month a day before the end of the subscription period. I checked my account details online and it said the subscription period ended the following day. I emailed them to cancel the subscription but they refused to refund the month they had charged me for in advance, even though I had met the terms of the user agreement. We went around and around in circles about it, and then they said that the subscription period ended the day they charged me, not the following day, which was not what their own website had stated in my account details. It was really frustrating and downright shady.

NordVPN attempted to help this customer through the SmartCustomer Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

Amazing service!
May 8, 2023

I am not tech knowledgeable at all! And this team helped me figure out my VPN over many days as I had question after question on how to do this and how to that. They responded quickly and efficiently and were very friendly! What a great team! Honestly, I wish I could send them all a muffin basket! Fabulous! Highly highly recommend.
