Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Auto-Renewal Cannot Be Disabled

high addon

PrivadoVPN enables automatic renewal by default and multiple users report being unable to turn it off through the app or website settings. Disputed renewals are reportedly denied, with the company citing no issue and refusing refunds even when service was non-functional.

trustpilot

They set it as automatic subscription which you can't turn off when you are trying. Then the renewed is not working. They sending automated emails that they will reach out, which they only did when i tried to get my money back through paypal. In that email they said there is no issue, and they reached out, so they can send it to paypal. Blaming me, and yet not providing the service they stole my money for

trustpilot

i left due to issues and funds, my accounts is now suspended unless i pay for a subscription so no free service.

5

Money-Back Guarantee Not Honored in Practice

high support

PrivadoVPN advertises a 30-day money-back guarantee, but multiple users report that refund requests go entirely unanswered. Support tickets are reportedly closed without resolution, email contacts receive no reply, and users who did receive refunds had to escalate through social media or payment-dispute channels rather than normal support.

trustpilot

The "30 day money back guarantee" is a LIE. You're supposed to ask their support for a refund, but they simply don't reply.

trustpilot

did not work properly and now ignoring my requested for a refund under money back guarantee.... Scammers

Promised Bonus Months Not Delivered

medium addon

The 24-month plan has been marketed with 3 bonus months. At least one user reports the bonus months were never honored, with their account cut off before the stated end date.

Credit Card Required Despite No-Card Claims

medium addon

At least one user reports being told no credit card was required to evaluate the service, but then being asked for credit card details during signup.

trustpilot

scammers. they tell you there's no credit card required to see if it works at all and then require your credit card details.

Free Tier Discontinued Without Notice

medium migration

PrivadoVPN previously offered a free 10GB/month tier. Multiple users report this has been discontinued or made inaccessible, with lapsed paid subscribers finding their accounts fully suspended rather than downgraded to the free tier.

trustpilot

These people have STOPPED giving free VPN. Why not just update your web page & just say no more free VPN, instead of wasting our time.

i left due to issues and funds, my accounts is now suspended unless i pay for a subscription so no free service.

Unexpected Auto-Renewal Charges

high addon

I signed up for a 30 day premium and it got auto renewed without my consent. I had some issues getting a refund from the support team, but I finally got it after contacting their social media t...

Premium Plan Delivers Single Netherlands Server Despite Multi-Country Claims

high addon

Multiple independent reviewers report that regardless of which country is selected in the PrivadoVPN app, all traffic is routed through a single server in the Netherlands. Users who paid for annual or multi-year plans expecting access to hundreds of servers report receiving the same connection as the free tier. This makes the service non-functional for accessing geo-restricted content outside the Netherlands.

trustpilot

Only server they have is in the Netherlands regardless of you selecting a different country.

trustpilot

No matter what country you choose, the app ALWAYS uses the same server in the Netherlands, the same server you could use in the free tier, and it won't even let you use Google without solving a dozen captchas.

Account Suspended Before Plan Expiry Date

medium support

The company also warns via email before plan expiry that the account will stop working if not renewed, and former paid subscribers cannot revert to a free tier on the same account.

trustpilot

they stop my account before the plan actually .outdate in bill, so extra free 3 month was fake.

trustpilot

when your plan nearly outdate, you will get email and warning your account will stop working if without renew plan. (meaning you can not use same account to use free plan)

Misleading 'Unlimited Data' Marketing

medium overage

At least one reviewer reports that PrivadoVPN markets unlimited data but enforces a 10GB data cap in practice.

trustpilot

Claims Unlimited Data, then limits it at 10GB.
