It did not work in hotel in Europe

It did not work in hotel in Europe. I was unable to get WIFi unless it was turned off.
I turned it back on at home and this morning it was not connected! Yesterday I got a scary spam message that I almost fell for!!!!!!y

Reply from NordVPN

Hey, we apologize that you were unable to connect at the hotel. Hotel networks differ from home connections and often have restrictions in place that can prevent VPN apps from working properly.

As our support team suggested during your contact, switching to the TCP or NordWhisper protocol in the app settings is specifically designed to help navigate these restricted networks. We also recommend trying the TCP or NordWhisper protocol on your home network as well to see if that helps maintain a stable connection. If that still does not resolve the issue, it would be best to continue troubleshooting via support.nordvpn.com so our team can investigate further and get this sorted out for you. - A.M.

Terrible service

Terrible service - Taking money and refusing service or refund!
​I purchased a service and my payment was successfully processed, but the company is refusing to either deliver the service or issue a refund. They are holding my funds indefinitely under vague excuses and passing the responsibility to their payment processor.
​This is completely unacceptable, bad-faith business practice, and a total scam. I have all the transaction receipts and communication logs documented. I demand an immediate refund or service activation, otherwise, formal fraud disputes and legal reports will be pursued. Avoid this company!

The worst VPN in existence

I’ve been using this VPN for about three years, and it’s clear to me that it’s just getting worse and worse. The only reason I still use it is that I get it for free through Revolut. The app is bloated, everything runs very slowly, and lately, there have been increasing issues with connecting via any of the available protocols. Connections take a long time to establish and remain highly unstable, regardless of the protocol chosen; often, there’s no internet access at all, even after an IP address has been assigned. While it works reasonably well on mobile, the desktop version is about as bad as it gets. This VPN is heavily hyped through advertising and PR, but in reality, it’s quite poor. It might suffice for basic daily tasks—like accessing blocked websites or downloading torrents—but that’s about it. It’s completely unsuitable for online gaming, especially when trying to bypass network restrictions. I do not recommend this product.

Stay away. Nord VPN is not trustworthy.

I had a subscription with Nord VPN for 2 years which ended in July 2026. It was not an auto renewable subscription. Without any notification Nord VPN charged my credit card double the amount they had charged me for two years for just one year of subscription, telling me that it was an auto renewable subscription (which was a lie). Nord VPN is not a trustworthy company. I'm currently trying to get a refund, but they're refusing to cooperate! I'm going to have to get a refund through my credit card instead. STAY AWAY.

Hi, Mitra. We're truly sorry for all the inconvenience this matter has caused you.

As our team has noted, all of our plans operate on a subscription basis, which is clearly indicated at the time of purchase. Additionally, we send renewal reminder emails 30 days in advance, as staying transparent with our users is very important to us, and according to our records, this email was sent to you.

Regarding the price increase: the initial price is a special offer that allows users to try the service and see if it meets their needs, while the renewal price reflects the true value of the service, taking into account all the features we offer.

Unfortunately, a refund wouldn't be possible in your case, as the renewal is well past the 30-day window.

Nevertheless, our sincere apologies once again; we've shared your feedback with our team. -E.G.

NUMEROUS websites require Cloudflare to access.

--- INCLUDING NORDVPN.COM !!!! ---

I can't log in to nordvpn.com without having to go through Cloudflare! (Am I in the Twilight Zone?)

If you use a competitor, please respond if you have the same problem.

Oh, and if you use their monitoring tools you can expect to have some trusted websites to be blocked,

Hello! Hitting a Cloudflare wall on our own website while using NordVPN is far from ideal - this is a known challenge with shared IP addresses and something our technical team can help resolve. Please reach out via live chat using an alternative domain at support.nord-help.com - we'd love to find a solution for you. - K.S.

Nord opens and doesn't link or takes 10 or more minutes to link to another IP address. Very annoying and unacceptable. Not once but every day.0

Hey Deb, we're sorry to hear about your experience and apologize for the trouble with the connection drops. We would love the opportunity to help get this sorted out.

If you are open to reinstalling the app, could you try switching between connection protocols in the app settings, such as NordWhisper or OpenVPN (TCP/UDP), to see if that helps stabilize your connection?

If that doesn't resolve it, please reach out to our team at support.nordvpn.com for guided assistance so we can help troubleshoot this with you. - A.M.
