For those who decided to sit on it last time.

IT’S BACK! https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/708881

Last time, I paid ~$7 for 2 years of VPN after cashback.

This time looks like a slightly better deal, 2-year plan ($3.09/mo) + 3 months FREE for USD$83.43 on Standard Plan. Cashback 96% on what you paid.

Deal ends 11:59pm Monday 5 Sep

Please READ this before you purchase:

Use the Cashrewards mobile app for best tracking results. Personally, I never had an instances where it didn’t track with Cashrewards app. I learnt it hard way with the browsers.

Before you purchase NordVPN, make sure you scrolled down and Nord didn’t add any add-on products with additional costs (some add-ons are automatically ticked, ensure it is unticked)

To avoid GST, select non-GST countries such as US. Personally, I used post code/zip code ‘90210’. GST component is excluded from the cashback.

FAQ:

When do I get tracking email?
o Based on my previous experience, you will get cashreward tracking email within 1 hour. If you don’t get this within a day, something has gone wrong, enjoy for few more days and cancel for a full refund

When do I get paid?
o Up to 90 days, should be 6 to 8 weeks. I got mine within 9 weeks.

How do they classify ‘New customer’
o It is based on your email address, if you had one before even free trials, use new/another email address.

What are some of the things that I can use with VPN?
o Youtube premium Argentina (only once off required during sign up) ~AUD$2.20 - please search for previous posting for more details
o Netflix Turkey (only once off required during sign up) - please search for previous posting for more details
o Netflix US or UK contents (VPN required at the time of viewing)
o BBC iPlayer (VPN required at the time of viewing).
o EPL / MLB / Golf / NFL / Tennis via Peacock. AUD ~$7.20 (VPN required at the time of viewing and adding cc is tricky)

Also, refer to TA's comment from the previous post

    I've been with Nord for a few years now. No issues at all. Always works when needing a VPN to circumvent geoblocking. I use it in combination with Chrome incognito mode, and only use that browser for OS transactions. Never had an issue.

    I only recently resubscribed for like $90 for 2 years or something? Still worth it.

      I'm agree with your comment, it's work and in my experience well. At the end of my 3-year plan thing, I just got a new email address and signed up again to get the deal. Not much point renewing without discount

      • whey4000 on 03/09/2022 - 14:23

          Yes! I was in the exact same boat as Froot Loops - had a 3yr Black Friday plan which ran out and I got this a while back, I made a new account and used the Cashrewards app to make my purchase. Approval took 9 weeks and 2 days for me and tracking took less than an hour :D

          • UFO on 03/09/2022 - 16:13

            @noren7: thanks Froot Loops and noren7, I'll definitely do that next time. It's worth the trouble to make a new account when you're saving what's about $100!

    • ozbargainerlife1 on 03/09/2022 - 19:12

      Does it have indian server

      • Pricebeat on 03/09/2022 - 20:43

        It used to

      • UFO on 03/09/2022 - 23:10

        Nope… but as explained below all VPN's are leaving India.

  • GerrardLFC on 03/09/2022 - 13:25

    How is the speed with nord?

    My PIA coming to an end and when i connect to local servers the speed is same as using with no VPN

    • Froot Loops on 03/09/2022 - 14:04
      +1

      I'm 350km from the nearest nord server (Brisbane) and am getting 759 Mbps down 411 Mbps up 26 Ping. I find it delays a little (ping?) sometimes when accessing a page, but downloading and normal use is totally fine. My normal speeds without a VPN are speeds: 906Mbps down, 931Mbps up, Ping 20, so not too much difference

      • wildweasel on 03/09/2022 - 15:55

        What internet plan are you on for getting such high speeds?

        • Froot Loops on 04/09/2022 - 00:36

          I'm on an enterprise network, hence the speeds.

  • Tomhaigh1 on 03/09/2022 - 13:26

    Are there any VPN's supporting India?

    • Snoovey on 03/09/2022 - 13:34
      +1

      India has decreed that all VPNs retain user data for 5 years and provide it when requested.
      So if the P bit of VPN is important to you, forget it

      • Tomhaigh1 on 03/09/2022 - 13:42
        +3

        Right now $ are more important to me than P, I have so many subscriptions having low prices from India, would be a hassle to convert to Turkey :D
        lets see, I was mostly after VPN providing virtual servers.

      • Wrongguy on 03/09/2022 - 17:41

        <$10 for 2 years of VPN subscription sounds like gold standard of privacy. Privacy is just a myth, you can only convince yourself that you are protected until one day you are proven wrong

      • Daniel15 on 04/09/2022 - 10:07

        I wonder if this also applies to companies that have workers in India. VPNs are extremely common for remote offices and people working from home.

    • AngoraFish on 03/09/2022 - 13:42

      TorGuard has an Indian server. Use Official50 for 50% off listed prices.

    • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 14:32

      this deal expires on Monday (not saying it won't available ever again)

      • running on empty on 03/09/2022 - 15:27

        Thats ok, I plan on using a new email and signing up today. I don't care about a few weeks lost on old plan.

          Otherwise, if you look at posting history an almost identical deal has dropped every 4 weeks or so all year long. I’m also due for renewal this month and have watched many Nord renewal deals come and go. Might jump on it this time, but if you didn’t there’ll likely be another in a few weeks.

  • almostfrench on 03/09/2022 - 14:01

    So I picked the standard plan $99.63 / 2 years.
    With 96% cashback, it's going to be $3.99 for 2 years. It's that right?

    • Pricebeat on 03/09/2022 - 14:02
      +1

      That’s USD I think

    • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 14:24

      USD and also check if it's the plan you want. I tried with Standard just now, and got ~$83 USD

    • jeremyl35 on 03/09/2022 - 16:26

      Try in incognito, I was getting 64% off at first showing $99.63 at checkout then tried in Incognito and got 68% off which is the $83 USD price.

  • paulaus on 03/09/2022 - 14:04

    Tried them and they kept blocking all the Warez sites I use so got a refund.

    • lulzenberg on 03/09/2022 - 14:29
      +4

      NordVPN were blocking them? Or the sites were blocking known VPN IPs? The latter seems more plausible..

      • paulaus on 04/09/2022 - 12:49

        It was nord they work fine with windscribe or CyberGhost which I am using now.

        • lulzenberg on 04/09/2022 - 14:56
          +1

          That just means the servers you were using for windscribe and cyberghost weren't blocked - it's very unlikely that a VPN will really ever be blocking any websites, where as it's extremely common for VPN IPs to be blocked by websites.

  • running on empty on 03/09/2022 - 14:09

    So this only works on the 'standard' plan and not the 'complete' or 'plus' plans as they come with nordlocker and nordpass? probably easier to say 96% cashback on standard plan only then.

    • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 14:15

      96% is on all plans not just standard

      • running on empty on 03/09/2022 - 14:19

        thank you for the quick reply

        Are you saying that you could buy the complete plan that comes with nordlocker and pass and get the cashback? I selected this plan but could not see any tick boxes that could be unticked

        • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 15:33
          +1

          Yes, it should be on all plans, not just standard. I didn't want all the optional ones, so I went with the standard. re: tick, untick, it seems like they might have changed this, but if it is all unticked and no options or features that you don't need aren't included, then its all good.

          • running on empty on 03/09/2022 - 16:26

            @superbass: Thank You, I've gone for complete plan to try out nordlocker. As long as cashback tracks then it's not much of a risk to buy and try!

      • GhatT on 04/09/2022 - 00:27

        This isn't true. I purchased the complete plan through shopback and you get an email with a receipt stating that all the extra things from complete and plus are considered "NordLocker" and "NordPass" products.

        Cashrewards also states it doesn't include NordPass or NordLocker products as part of cashback. Unless this works for someone else I would only buy the standard package.

        I managed to get a refund easily through NordVPN anyway

    • Aftos on 03/09/2022 - 17:44

      Special Terms
      Cashback is eligible for new NordVPN customers only.

      Cashback is eligible only on NordVPN plans, and not on any up-sold products such as NordPass & NordLocker.

      Cashback may be ineligible if using codes not listed on Cashrewards, and ineligible on any payments made with Crypto currency.

      Cashback is calculated and paid on the advertised cost of the plan only. It will not include any GST, taxes, credit card or PayPal surcharges.

    I used a different e-mail address to sign up for a deal like this a couple of months ago. It tracked properly in Cashrewards so didn't think much of it until about a month later when I checked again and saw it had been declined. I queried this and Cashrewards said that Nord did not give a reason and there was nothing they could do. It was past the 30 days for a refund from Nord.

    • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 15:21

Signed up to this using another e-mail, just waiting to see if cashrewards tracked.

    Noob question - how does this compared to the VPN included in the Google One subscription? I have one, but it does allow to select countries.

    • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 18:05
      +2

      According to cnet;

      If you're a subscriber to the Google One 2TB plan and just looking for light protection as you browse public Wi-Fi, the Google One VPN may do the job. But if you're looking for more robust privacy, we'd recommend subscribing to one of our tested and recommended VPNs instead.

      Nord is one of their recommended.

      • elektron on 03/09/2022 - 22:18

    I did this cashback last time, have had my cashback declined. Nil tracking issues, showed up on my account almost right after transaction.

    After multiple emails with Cashrewards and NordVPN, still no $$

    • shiggaz on 03/09/2022 - 20:46

      Uh oh. Does not inspire confidence… Were you a returning customer with a new email?

    • superbass on 03/09/2022 - 21:30

      I got my cashback just after 2 months, so please feel free to elaborate on your story

      • Superyang84 on 05/09/2022 - 19:41

        There isn't much to elaborate.

        Brand new user, never signed up before. I used a new window to make sure everything was tracking. Worked perfectly, transaction showed up on my account tracking fine like a minute after the transaction went through.

        It was still pending a couple weeks ago, then all of a sudden declined. No explanation on details. So I emailed both Cashrewards and NordVPN. NordVPN tells me everything is approved for cashback and Cashrewards keeps saying its declined. After about 4-5 emails with each, I still have no $$$ and doubt I'll be getting it.
