What the Community Says
NordVPN comes up a lot as a “solid all-rounder” VPN that’s easy to use and generally feels reliable day to day. People like the speed when everything’s working normally, and it’s often mentioned as a good pick for streaming devices like Firestick. It also gets praise for privacy features like no-logs claims and extras like Meshnet for connecting devices.
The biggest gripe is pricing and renewals: the intro deal can look great, then the renewal jumps hard and leaves people feeling burned. Some also complain about account and billing headaches (especially when mixing website subscriptions with Google Play), plus occasional slowdowns depending on protocol/server. And while many trust it, the old security-breach history still makes some folks uneasy about transparency.
Strengths
- Good everyday speeds
- Easy to use on phones and streaming devices
- Lots of servers and locations
- Privacy-focused features (no-logs claims, extra tools like Meshnet)
- Works well for many people with multiple devices
Weaknesses
- Renewal price can jump unexpectedly
- Billing and account login/device-limit issues
- Can be slow on some settings or servers
- Past security incident still worries some people
- Not the cheapest long-term option

"@BasilTheGreat @theipaper If you don't have a VPN already people download NordVPN or ExpressVPN for the monthly cost of a coffee, you will be able to circumvent this ban!"
"@Pirat_Nation Friendly reminder, ofcom can't enforce this on ANY vpn outside of it's jurisdiction. Foreign VPN's like Proton and Nord can just tell them to fuck off"
"@JOBhakdi Maybe try the NordWhisper feature on NordVPN, so they cannot see your are using af VPN?"
"How to beat Starmer and OFCOM: 1. Open the App Store on your iPhone. 2. Search for a trusted VPN like ProtonVPN, NordVPN, ExpressVPN, or Surfshark (avoid random free ones—many are sketchy). 3. Tap Get to download & install the app (free to start, some need a subscription later). 4. Open the app → sign up or log in (create an account if new). 5. Allow the app to add VPN config (tap Allow +..."
"...s_Pry_420 @thecoastguy Yep but your friend isnt a registered vpn service provider which charges for its services. The gov wants to stop the likes of nordvpn being used on kids mobiles."
"@BasilTheGreat How are the ⚓️s going to police that exactly then? Take NordVPN. Domiciled in Panama to avoid fvckwit government interference. Maybe land based broadband providers blocking VPNs? Go Starlink then. Uncle Elon will probably do a special deal for the oppressed UK👍"
"@NordVPN make Your service free for the Iranian people! They only ca access the free internet with a good vpn! Help us please."
"@IntCyberDigest I'm curious how they gonna execute this in practice, when we've got bazillions of free OpenVPN servers. VPN is not only a service, where you have to register an account or even pay, like Nord or Proton. In the worst case you can buy a VPS outside UK and create own VPN there."
"@ApexD3gen @HPsauced12 @hasanthehun Yes, my tweets are brought to you via NordVPN. But seriously, I do have to use a VPN as my country restricts free speech. (UK)"
"...in the last 24 hours was 3. Now it is 13 and likely to keep speeding up. #Starlink is it for Iran right now Very dangerous. Google AI recommends NordVPN, ExpressVPN, and Surfshark."
"@realugandan256 @tumwesigeandre9 Yeah 😂 have tested Nord VPN Proton vpn Windscribe V2ray All these I paid for them and they don't work Mullavad VPN And those tunneling apps work though I think you are right with proton stealth mode ..I think it works Guys use internet well😅"
