        Im using surfshark and its been good to me so far.

          Until it gets purchased by a company with a history of infecting devices with malware.

          Is there proven records showing surfshark keeps no logs? I know there are quite a few cases for PIA proving in court they have no logs.

      I'm a bit concerned that this site speaks highly of NordVPN

      • +1

        Would you mind sharing some of your concerns about Nord please? Seems like a bit of a minefield out there at the moment!

        • Nord is fine

  • +3

    – Cons
    Convicted cryptocurrency criminal hired as the CTO of PIA
    Slow and inconsistent speeds
    Based in the United States (bad privacy jurisdiction)
    Does not work well for Netflix and streaming
    Troubling history of the parent company (Kape)

    • Based in the United States (bad privacy jurisdiction)

      This was my concern too. But their answer to this is, don't worry about it, we don't keep logs.

    • What's a good VPN to use?

  • Long time user. No issues with Pia.

    • +3

      that you know of. If you weren't as private as you think you are, would you know about it?

      • Same question for any VPN though? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        • precisely. But we don't assume there's no issues.

  • Sufficient for use for unlocking geolocked content only though?

  • Anyone successfuly claimed the cash back seems like a bit of a scam when i turned off auto renewal i got a email from PIA saying i "Cancelled" it says in description u can't cancel to be eligble for the cash back but i didn't cancel i turned off auto renewal then the cash back wouldn't show in shopback website

    Have submitted a ticket there investigating will update here with what happens but if they don't honor the cashback im gonna chargeback via credit card

  • Showing 70% cash back for me

    Hi ******************* ,

    As shoppers ourselves, we understand how anxious you must feel about your missing Cashback. We are too! We're currently working hard with our merchants for your case as only when our merchants are able to give us the commission for your order, we are then able to share it with you as Cashback.

    We've started investigation on your missing Cashback claim for your transaction with Private Internet Access VPN. This investigation will take no longer than 14 working days to be completed.

    Meanwhile, we kindly ask that you refrain from making duplicate enquiries for the same order.

    We seek your patience in this matter and hope that you will continue to have an enjoyable experience with ShopBack!


    Hi *************************,

    Thank you for submitting a missing Cashback claim.

    We have investigated and found that the merchant has deemed ShopBack ineligible to earn commissions on this transaction which results in us being unable to pass the Cashback along to you.

    That said, we know how frustrating missing Cashback can be, and will now take additional steps to appeal on your behalf directly with Private Internet Access VPN.

    Please allow us some time for this to happen, this process can take up to 45 days depending on how fast we hear back from Private Internet Access VPN.

    ShopBack awards Cashback on your transactions on the basis that the merchant attributes your order to ShopBack and pays us a commission, they are the deciding party on a sale being attributed to ShopBack.

    There are quite a few reasons why these orders may not be attributed to ShopBack. This includes:

    1. If a user clicks on a Honey, Cashrewards, or another chrome extension after clicking from ShopBack
    2. If other web pages (including search sites, social media, store sites, promotional/discount sites) or web browsers are opened after clicking through ShopBack
    3. Clicking through to another page from a banner, pop-up, or advertisement on the store’s webpage whilst shopping
    4. Antivirus/Cleanup or Adblocker applications block or disrupt Cashback tracking (Tracking cookies are required to track transaction)
    5. When the order falls under the merchant’s exclusions, including the use of promo codes not listed on ShopBack.

    Regards,
    Team ShopBack


    As expected fraudulent advertising of cashback will start chargeback if they don't honor it

    Ended up telling PIA i want a refund and they've said my accounts terminated and will appear in 5 - 10 days

    The shopback guys rejected my claim with the following reasons before i requested a refund via PIA

    Private Internet Access VPN (Missing Cashback, 29-03-2021, AUD98.20)
    order number
    $0.00
    Rejected
    Rejected: Unsuccessful Cashback/Bonus

    Your cashback of $0.00 was rejected and removed from your pending earnings for one of these reasons: 1. Your order was cancelled, returned or exchanged, partially or fully 2. Your order was paid for with a gift voucher 3. Payment or stay was not completed. If this was not the case, email us at [email protected] and we will check in with our merchants. Note: The partner store holds sole discretion in determining the cashback validity.
    This is complete fraudulent behaviour either on Shopbacks account or PIA's

    1.I never cancelled my order i turned off the auto renewal feature to ensure i wasn't charged a second time after the first payment of $98.20 for 2 years and received a "cancellation email"

    2.No order was paid with any gift voucher it was paid in the full amount of $98.20 as advertised with the registered click on shopback for the 100% cashback

    3.Payment was completed i have the receipt for my order which was provided to them

    I hope these guys get a really bad name for themselves or even worse than what they already have either shopback made a mistake of the 100% cashback offer and then refused to honor there mistake or PIA setup a fraudulent method of knowing people will pay the initial fee obviously turn off the auto renewal and then they would classify that as as a "Cancellation" thus rendering you inelligble for the cashback even though your initial full payment was taken

    Absolute scammers

    • +1

      Yeah same. Shopback are scammers.
      Even emailed [email protected] for what went wrong. They didn't reply.

      • After i refunded PIA and the actual refund went into account 4-5 days later the same day i received the refund shopback emailed saying good news we've decided to honor your cashback and its now pending while we check with the merchant to ensure the purchase was maid / not canceled etc and that they will confirm by June 15th 2021

        lol….

        These people belong in a circus
