Pretty well regarded free easy to use VPN, perfect for travelling. Normal basic account usually has a 500mb limit, but found this link thanks to Techradar that gets you 5GB instead. Should be more than enough for most people using it on their phones.

Edit: People are reporting the link is still only giving them 500mb, so try going via the link via Techradar

Edit 2: Link updated. This one seems to work, sorry about the earlier stuff up.

Edit 3: Seems to be new accounts only, and verifying your email nabs you an extra 500mb!

        To use when travelling to China so you can check gmail,dropbox and youtube etc.

          Cool! good to know TunnelBear is available when I'm travelling there

  • TheAviator on 19/11/2017 - 15:31

    And from the sounds of it, seems like it's a 5GB a month kind of thing rather than just a one-off. Thanks!

  • uccoffee on 19/11/2017 - 16:43

    tunnel bear is so slow today :( wasnt like this before the promotion~

    Not sure why but I too cannot get this to work, despite using an unused browser, clearing cache and cookies and attempting to create a new account.

    • overlook on 19/11/2017 - 21:08

      same…it says 209mb left.

    • BigLeviathan on 22/11/2017 - 01:28

      Get different browser, perhaps?

      I managed to score one by logout the existing subscription and switch on incognito from android phone

  • fullbald on 19/11/2017 - 17:15

    just signed up, only 500mb

  • changa on 19/11/2017 - 17:26

    Thanks! Just got 5.5GB.

    Anybody having trouble getting it to work, try the following method as that is how i got it to finally work for me

    Delete account using the link posted earlier above thanks to ChronoSphinx : https://help.tunnelbear.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2770…

    Go into incognito/private mode on your mobile/ipad/pc browser & sign up again using the link posted earlier above thanks to GreenOllie : http://click.tunnelbear.com/aff_c?offer_id=42&aff_id=2940

    Once signed up, if you click on the tunnelbear logo up top & on the following page go to your account, you will see the 5GB & that will change to 5.5GB once you verify your email.

    Hope that helps

    • Bappy on 19/11/2017 - 17:52

      Thanks heaps - it did work

    • Mako on 19/11/2017 - 18:19

      Yea that worked a treat!

    • hobbes7 on 19/11/2017 - 18:38

      Thank you, this worked for me too!

    • khing on 19/11/2017 - 21:16

      —EDITED— Found how to do it. Thanks a million!

    • RickyBaker on 19/11/2017 - 23:00

      can't get it to work. Deleted account 3 times and tried, and still only get 500MB. Tried with a new email that's never been used before and still only get 500MB

      • ABZ300 on 19/11/2017 - 23:10

        @cNelson144 - are you in private/incognito mode when signing up? That is the only way i got it to work. If its not working on your pc then maybe try on your mobile or vice versa. But you need to be in private/incognito mode the whole time during signup for it to work.

      • ChronoSphinx on 19/11/2017 - 23:47

        need to clear cache or delete cookies before deleting account

    • SkMed on 19/11/2017 - 23:25

      nope :( showing 490mb on mine after doing this.

    • fraid knot on 20/11/2017 - 08:18

      Worked for me also. Thanks!

    Thanks OP.

    Works a treat on my Nexus 5X, went straight to Pandora for first test - like xmas morning, very happy chappy.

    Tried the same on PC (Windows 10 and chrome) and it just kills all internet - cannot reach any sites when tuned on. No idea what the problem is. And it consumed 22mb whilst trying.

  • Fernley on 19/11/2017 - 19:23

    Thanks OP. Tweet it and you get another 1GB.

  • WrightAnvil on 19/11/2017 - 20:36

    Thanks OP, just signed up and received 5.5Gb

  • Cyphar on 19/11/2017 - 20:47

    The only VPN I found to consistently work in China. The others I downloaded would wind up blocked within 24 hours. Thanks heaps =)

  • frostman on 19/11/2017 - 21:07

    Where are they based at, hope not within the 5-Eyes jurisdiction

    • klownz on 19/11/2017 - 21:57

      They are from Canada.

      • jv on 19/11/2017 - 22:10

        Should've called it TunnelMoose then…

        Useless VPN, they're within jurisdiction to hand over your details and logs which may well result in your charge and extradition.

        Get a VPN that's headquartered in Indonesia or Seychelles,

        • R3XNebular on 20/11/2017 - 10:21

          Recommendations?

        • frostman on 20/11/2017 - 13:16

          @R3XNebular: Depends what you want to do:

          • If you want a VPN to just to bypass Regional Media Streaming such as watch your favourite BBC documentary or series that's not streamed here, then you can go with the OP's mentioned VPN or any VPN for that matter.

          • If you want a VPN to mask your activity because you're posting (commenting) on things which may be seen illegal, you wish to 'state your mind' on Twitter without being politically correct, you wish to expose a government conspiracy which could see locked up, then go for something outside the 5-eyes,

          e.g. https://www.bolehvpn.net/

          @R3XNebular: I use Ivacy, they don't keep any logs. - https://www.ivacy.com/

  • Junk Sifter on 19/11/2017 - 22:13

    If you've already tweeted, the delete account trick won't work. You'll need a new email to get the 5GB, and I guess a different twitter account for the extra 1GB.

  • jeeg on 19/11/2017 - 22:28

    Thanks Op. I got the 5500MB quote after email verification.

  • pixxelpusher on 20/11/2017 - 20:56

    Thanks, with the Twitter promo, and email verification = 6.5GB

    • neil aus on 21/11/2017 - 22:44

      Then give the deal a +ve vote man!

    • philart on 26/11/2017 - 09:32

      6500MB = 6.347GB

  • OhMaJuck on 21/11/2017 - 17:58

    so does this get renewed every months?

    • neil aus on 21/11/2017 - 22:43

      Yes, every one month's.

  • soupkitchen on 30/11/2017 - 03:01

    Did no more than 10 or 20 MB and was out of data, getting the message:
    Grrrr! Your TunnelBear is out of free data for the month. Upgrade to a bigger bear, with unlimited data below.

    Is this typical? Waste of time.

  • madfree on 03/12/2017 - 12:48

    Just came back from Beijing. I can confirm it works in China, but connection can take quite a while (either to HK or Jap servers)

  • Amores on 19/12/2017 - 18:08

    It should renew today but says "500MB"

  • davlap on 01/01/2018 - 09:41

    Tried the delete account trick
    Signed up again, still only 500 MB
    No big deal as my other new account has 5GB
