Trash company
February 27, 2024

Tried it thinking it had the money back guarantee. The app ended up never working while I was on vaca. So I deleted it and thought I unsubscribed.
Turns out I didn't and got dinged the 2nd month. Asked support rep to reimburse one month at least since the vpn never worked the whole 2 weeks of me trying. Basically send it wasn't their problem and no refund was available at all and had the balls to tell me I should try their other services! What a joke.

Worst customer service. VPN is trash. It didn't work. Try another company with better customer service and works

Hello. All of our customers are eligible for a refund as long as their initial purchase is not more than 30 days old. As for subscription, deleting the application does not cancel the recurring subscription, ways to cancel it are listed here: https://support.nordvpn.com/hc/en-us/articles/19556844985489-How-to-cancel-a-subscription. Feel free to contact our customer support team at support.nordvpn.com if you have any further questions. -A.Z

Just reiterating everyone else's responses... it's an egregious effort to cancel auto-renew and they deliberately do it, to obscure and obfuscate instead of making said process easy. Go $#*! yourselves, Nord. Take your business elsewhere, my dudes, and don't sink your money into these greedy $#*!ing $#*!s.

Auto Renew Scam
December 26, 2021

Watch out for this company. As others have said (wish I'd read the reviews before I tried) they make it difficult to cancel and even when you do they might still take your money for time you didn't subscribe to. Customer Support is worse than useless. You've been warned.

Great service
June 14, 2023

I think this is how a company should organize its support. Always very helpful and help you get done whatever needs to be done. Last time I was helped by Marcus and Debra, which both handled my situation as expected.

Horrible company
November 25, 2023

I ended up not using this product because it blocked everything. Their pricing on their website looks like you get 3 months free if you select a 2-year package, but that is not true - you are charged for all 27 months. Also, I selected the "Continue" button, which turned out to be a "finalize purchase" button, VERY MISLEADING. Spent over 2 hours on "chat" trying to get my "purchase" refunded. Did not work! I had to send an email to ask for the refund...still waiting. No phone support!

Check this report before hire NordVPN services
September 18, 2023

I updated my rating from 1 to 4 stars after the company addressed my concerns and removed my credit card information from their website. However, I did not give them a 5-star rating as this feature is not readily available on their site. If you want to have your credit card information removed, you must also make a complaint.

The following is my original review:

I have been using NordVPN, and I am satisfied with their services. However, I noticed that removing my credit card details from their website is impossible once payment has been made unless I delete my account. I have a 2-year subscription with them, but I may not renew their services if this policy remains unchanged.

Truly horrible service
July 10, 2023

The server in which my dedicated ip is was down for more than 18 hours.
This ip is essential for my work.
Nobody informed me, live chat agents lied saying everything is fine and the problem is in my device while they know that that servers are down.
It took 6 hours(!) till customer care replied to me saying there is a problem and not helping with a solution.
Also they took no responsibility while saying this is the terms of conditions so my problem.
Horrible service.

Won't renew my subscription there!

Brought light to tech supports day
May 20, 2023

Sadly i wasnt able to resolve my request. Its fine, since i was only asking for a small extension until i am able to budget in this service. I was able to speak to a tech who was a joy to talk to. Absolutely love you all, i see now as ive just ended my first month why you waive around proudly this services awards and guarantee. Thank you Nord. Hazel. Everyone who makes the magic at nord happen. Its an honor to use what you all work so hard to roll out. :)

Very intrusive.
July 10, 2022

On an iphone you constantly have to keep logging in. They will sell you a password manager though.
On a windows machine the software hangs around too much when you're not using it. Their solution to the witeguard issue is to stay camped on port 443 and to have a few processes constantly running on your system.
And last but not least, many have experienced the software just dropping the connection without the kill switches cutting in.

Hello Mary, sorry to hear you have run into issues when using our apps. Our iOS app requires logging back in from time to time for security reasons. This is in no way related to upselling you a password manager, in fact you may refuse any promotional notifications by turning off this setting on the app. Regarding other issues related to VPN connection quality it would be best to further troubleshoot it with our support team as this usually that can be quickly resolved by a few setting tweaks. You may contact us via live chat (request for a live agent) or via email at support@nordvpn.com.
