CyberGhost VPN is a nightmare and scam. Beware!

So I was looking for a VPN. Usually I wouldn’t bother with these cartoonish buffoonish apps and shit, and would just use ssh tunntel, but this is a shart-phone. Anyway, I read some reviews and this one seemed reasonable. Believe me, it is NOT. This is a living unending nightmare, and I’ve had to cancel my credit card because of it. They will charge your card, but not give you ANY access, even just to your account. You will be locked out of your account, no matter how many times you send a password reset; there is NO customer service. So they just rip off your fucking credit card number and tell you to FUCK OFF. Guess what, that AINT gonna fly with me. Canceled card and prepared a criminal complaint to file at the magistrate. FUCK. THEM.

Thanks, for sharing this - I was definitely considering Cyber Ghost VPN and starting digging into research about my options.

Thanks for the review, I was considering Cyber Ghost since they were having the special for $2.75/month for 18 months. Definitely looking elsewhere now.

thx m8, not that id trust anything with such a name, lmao

hmm i use it, seems to work okay. i can watch Hulu overseas and even hooked up my router to their openvpn. I haven’t had to contact them though, so I guess I’m not looking forward to ever having to do that!

Yeah I was once politely told “tough luck” by them too. Eventually someone offered to make things right, but by then I had also had it with them.

Thanks for that info.

I can’t get anywhere from any of their connections. Also, there are popups. Also, they don’t gaf about their customers. Don’t do it. Nothing is still nothing no matter how cheap it is.

They’ve also decided to discontinue the free service for desktop users coming up in November. Skip.

CyberGhost is a useless piece of crap!!! I will never purchase it again.

Just curious, how do you determine is cyberghost VPN fault in the data leak or hacks?

You still use CG? How has it been to unblock streaming content? (Max, Hulu, etc)

Is it that bad? I was looking to get the 2 year subscription to stream Max and Disney US catalog from outside US.

No sorry, that was forever ago. I’m in the States now so not been using VPN.
