          Did you use a browser or app? In Chrome mobile browser for example:
          Settings - Privacy and security - Delete browsing data - Advanced (on top) and tap "All time":
          ✓ Cookies and site data
          ✓ Cached images and files
          ✓ Site settings

          Then tap "Delete data" at the bottom. Try again. Use a normal email address, not from Proton mail for example.

      I got the same error when using proton email.
      Then I changed to GMail and trxn went through.
      I guess the best bet is using GMail as it seems PureVPN doesn't like any other unpopular email domains.

        Same. Email with my own .com domain got the error, but gmail works. Seems like a stupid decision to for them to trust gmail addresses more than others. Then again, 130% cashback also seems stupid.

  • drspy00 on 23/11/2024 - 19:21

    I signed up earlier in the month. I have a family member with topcashback also, who I referred but live in the same house. If they were to sign up if I told them about this deal would that potentially cause issues with topcashback? Eg, is it one per household that can have account or is it ok to share an ip address?

    • MeesusEff on 23/11/2024 - 20:32

      I m using phone data to sign up again lol

    Just wondering, how do you see on TCB when a particular boosted cashback ends? For example, how did OP figure out this deal ends at 11:59pm of 25th of Nov?

    • trixieb on 23/11/2024 - 23:32
      +1

      I just worked out how to read the revisions of a post. Looking at the revisions, OP had 24th Nov as the expiry date. The moderator scrimshaw had changed to 25th Nov. I'm curious if @scrimshaw is able to view the expiry date. I had posted several TCB posts without expiry dates as they were not visible on the website or app. The moderators were aware when the offers expired and revised my posts with expiry dates. A few times I asked the rep TA for the expiry when people asked.

      • Moderatorscrimshaw on 23/11/2024 - 23:33

        The only person who knows the expiry date here is TCB employee, TA. I only edit the deal after receiving a report from rep about the expiry date. Otherwise, I wouldn't know either.

    • neoleo on 24/11/2024 - 18:35

      Maybe try to change the protocol. Check the setting in the app. First time login, PureVPN asked for streaming or other purposes to optimise it.

    FYI. Still waiting for mine to change from "pending" to "confirmed" from the last deal over a month ago.

    • Mortin on 24/11/2024 - 12:54

      As I am reading, it will be payable in 3 months

      • 53459 on 24/11/2024 - 13:08

        From "confirmed" to payable? Regardless, it is not even confirmed by PureVPN. Previously, they confirmed it much faster. This is my first time, so I am a brand new customer. I don't know why it is taking so long. I contacted both companies; TCB said it was PureVPN, and PureVPN said they would get back to me. Then nothing happened.

    • trixieb on 24/11/2024 - 13:09

      "Pending" to "Confirmed" can take less than a month to about 2 months based on my 2 orders recently. Payment is in about 3 months on one order.

    Didn't get tracked on topcashback last time and refunding it through purevpn was very stressful. Topcashback takes seberal months to address your claim but there's no guarantee it will be honoured. Just remember that there's a chance you could be paying the full amount for a substandard vpn service and not getting a dime back

    • BarryBargain88 on 25/11/2024 - 07:14

            @neoleo: Hey, thanks for this i'll keep it in mind if i go again for another cashback.

            My August CB was paid so I cancelled the paypal authorisation via paypal and then was looking to close out the PureVPN account so i don't forget. I've asked them on email 7 times now to close the account and they just completely ignore the request with their standard response. Seems impossible to get the account closed! I guess it doesn't matter since I cancelled the payment on the paypal side. I'm glad i never gave them debit card numbers since they are super hard to deal with from this experience.

            • neoleo on 26/11/2024 - 10:20

              @junet: Of course just cancel the automatic payment in Paypal. For card, Wise virtual cards are great as the virtual cards can be closed and replaced with new card numbers. Repeat ;-)

    • HamBoi69 on 25/11/2024 - 07:31

      All my purchases have tracked with PureVPN via TCB and just recently some from August have paid out. And for the ones that didn’t track, it required 2 back and forth emails between CS to get the refund.

      • neoleo on 26/11/2024 - 07:52

        We can do it in the browser too after login. Chat included. It's because previously I used dot (.) trick with Gmail addresses, so reply with email is not advised as the email is different on their side.

        Imagine you have [email protected] but you put [email protected] previously for PureVPN. So, just reply through chat after login. Tap the support ticket to reply if you have created a new support ticket.

    • neoleo on 26/11/2024 - 08:08

      After login, from their menu, tap/click "Subscriptions". At the bottom: "File a refund". You can tap/click "Help Desk" - "Create a new ticket" at the bottom under Support tickets. You can do "live chat" too to ask for refund. They will ask for the reason and give some offers to keep you as their customer. You can tap/click the support ticket to reply back and give a reason like you need the money asap, etc. After you confirm that you don't want their offer and just say to get full refund, then they will proceed to refund. Then you'll receive it in days. That's it. I have done this several times, lol as my Topcashback US account gets banned because of several PureVPN transactions.

  • drspy00 on 25/11/2024 - 00:06

    Tracked for a family member, and tracked for me previously. What are the chances once its tracked it will stay tracked? Is there anything that could impact it paying out other than cancelling, $300 is quite alot for something I wasnt planning on even using, (but probably will) but if it didnt pay out is there anything that can be done? could it be cancelled for the 5 years if it didnt track?

    • neoleo on 26/11/2024 - 07:46

      If you got confirmation email and/or it is shown in your account as Pending, you just have to wait for it to be Confirmed and Payable later.

      If it didn't track, you can ask for full refund from PureVPN within a month. Mostly I don't use this VPN, only for the profit ;-)

      NordVPN is much better than this one.

  • Brick50 on 25/11/2024 - 01:32

    What constitutes as new customer? New email? or does payment method need to also be different?

    • neoleo on 26/11/2024 - 07:42

      Definitely always use new email and we can only buy this once a month. I haven't tried with same card number, but I usually use Paypal with the same new email for this. We can add many email addresses in Paypal and set default email.

      • drspy00 on 25/11/2024 - 14:49

        Yes those no fee cards are great, and they can be calculated on the websites beforehand, actually found an app that compares them both, was about 1c difference with visa card but it didnt work. Wise, I'm not sure about as it fluctuates and I can't find a way to calculate beforehand.

    • trixieb on 25/11/2024 - 14:50

      @bumpyhead @drspy00 @CodeXD PayPal charges a currency conversion fee (regardless of no fee card). I had bought the 2 year plan before and PayPal charged $8 extra for the currency conversion. I used a credit card without international fees and was unable to change the currency to USD on PayPal. Was able to change the currency to USD with AliExpress but not PureVPN.

      • CodeXD on 25/11/2024 - 14:59

        I entered the card details directly into pureVPN - didnt go through paypal.

          I was referring to why bumpyhead paid more at A$318 using PayPal. The extra charge would have been from PayPal. You paid less at A$305.15 by adding the card directly.

      • drspy00 on 25/11/2024 - 15:05
        +1

        Unfortunately purevpn has somehow taken away the ability to change the currency to USD, and it does it all by default. I buy on aliexpress, ebay and theres always the option. The paypal AUD conversion is terrible, maybe the worst on the market. It also happens on aliexpress if you use AUD.

        I read this before buying, checked it and realised I'd have to use the card to make sure it took the payment in USD. I am very pedantic about this because I lost about $30 difference on ebay a few years back, even challenged paypal to refund the difference as I had a screenshot of it in USD, I set it up to default to the main currency and not do the conversion, (Which has since changed to default to AUD in the last year btw) I had a case with the financial ombudsman and with a few emails I got them to refund. Not sure they would do that now with the current setup as it just defaults to AUD anyway now but you have to be on the ball to change it when theres an option.

        I wonder if this is something purevpn has done, or if its just how websites handle paypal transactions now.

        • neoleo on 26/11/2024 - 07:36

          I put Wise card in Paypal, no currency conversion last month. But I have USD balance in Wise. Someone mentioned about Wise without USD balance previously and still good with Wise.

          • drspy00 on 26/11/2024 - 12:34

            @neoleo: Thats a bit different, maybe because wise is not an Australian card or it detects the US balance. I used paypal last month also for the purevpn deal macquarie card and it did default to AUD but it was possible to change to US.

              @drspy00: Wise card is a multi currencies card. Default currency in PureVPN is USD.

            • noelhoi on 26/11/2024 - 12:44

              @drspy00: Really? So you checked out via Paypal which links to your macquarie bank card, but was given the option to charge in USD? And this was last month?
              Many people from back in August deal confirms there is no option to change currency

              • drspy00 on 26/11/2024 - 12:55

                @noelhoi: I actually just double checked and it was paypal with wise card (With AUD balance). (I have so many cards and have done so many transactions lately and forgot). So it must be a wise card thing, though I tried to replicate the transaction just then, logging in and paying with an empty card to see. It seems to just attempt to process the transaction, but not come up with any options. I am sure there was an option though when I did it! or maybe I just assumed.

                Funny thing is, wise actually settled at about 40c more than regular visa card for that day.

                    @noelhoi: From memory, when checking out PureVPN didn't give an option to change currency. It bills in USD.

                    If you then choose to pay with Paypal, then it depends which linked card you're using to pay.

                    For example, if it's Revolut or Wise (which like neoleo mentioned is a multi currencies card), then Paypal just charges that card in USD. However, if it's an Australian bank card which would have default currency of AUD, Paypal will do the conversion using its crappy exchange rate then charge the bank card in AUD.

                        @wangasm: Interesting. Wonder if the merchants get a better rate for offering paypal if they allow this. Weird as most sites default to AUD, but with the option to change. If this is a sign of things to come I just won't use paypal. I already use afterpay much more even if I pay it immediately, as its an Australian company.

    Question from a novice:

    I already paid for a 5 year subs, got the following status on TCB:

    PureVPN pending
    Purchase $294.64
    Estimated Payable 14 Weeks
    Order Id 150726814
    Top Up Amount $0.00
    Last Updated 24 Nov 2024

    Does it mean the cashback is now tracked, and I have to wait for 3 months before cashback?

    Thank you.

      Yes, it means your cashback has tracked for that purchase. You will need to wait for that tracking to update from Pending status to Confirmed status then to Payable status. Once it's Payable status you can withdraw the cashback. ETA is 2-3 months.

    @tightarse….any similar cashback deal coming up for NordVPN? Cashrewards has come up with 100% cashback today?
