Question

Which VPN go with? NordVPN or ExpressVPN

May 12, 2017 9:10AM PDT

Wanna by VPN and found it's really hard work to do.
At the first sight I was for PIA, but read they might be leaking data at the moment and also heard about some troubles with support
Other options i'm thinking
NordVPN - $3.3/month
ExpressVPN - $8.32/month
Comparing these i found Express are rating like top, but also have read recent comments they have some troubles with speed drops with US servers and of course the price are very high. So I'm more linking to NordVPN than to any other because also heard it works unlocking US Netflix. Maybe someone using it and might share experience and if it's really good?

Why pay?

Beware of NORDVPN

I am VERY unsatisfied with NORDVPN. Your VPN was malfunctioning and NORDVPN turned me over to one of the "partners" who tried to scam me out of $200 for a "computer optimization." I was told that NORDVPN would be issuing me a refund to my PAyPal. NORDVPN has not issued the refund they have promised nor has responded to my emails following up on the status of the refund.
