Worked for me, just coming off a 5 year windscribe. Hopefully they don't go under anytime soon. Thanks for posting!

Lifetime subscriptions are not a sustainable business model.

According to Reddit, this company is really shady, remember this, all lifetime vpn are the same, not just this one, if something is too good to be true, you know the rest https://www.reddit.com/r/vpnrevie...are_button

The problem here is people get hung-up on "lifetime".

If you're paying $10 a month for VPN today and this serves your purpose, you've made your money back in 2 months.

Whether it's a good VPN or not is another matter altogether. There are some complaints on Reddit but on Trustpilot it has nearly 2600 reviews and a 4.7 star rating, which seems like it me be worth the plunge:

The company has been around since 2007, so it's unlikely it's going to shutdown from day to day:

Dunno why so many people are quick to trust all 3-5 of the reddit posts complaining about ivacy. i've used it for 4 years and it's been spectacular. never had any issues.

There are people out there that post 5 star reviews as their job, if you trust the reviews on trustpilot then you can check the box for 1-star to read the real reviews and many are all recent ones from March 2023. good reputable vpn providers do not cost anywhere near $10/mo

I will prefer to made smaller payment each year than paying one-time fee for lifetime of service. There is really no incentives for any company to provide good service after sale.

I paid via Paypal. There was nowhere to put in the coupon code.
After "completing" purchase on Paypal, it tried to go back to the site and the page never loaded. I believe it's supposed to go back to Stack Social and allow me to enter the code and click to complete the purchase.

Where did everyone put in the coupon code?

Upate => the page never loaded. I got an email from Paypal that I was charged $40.

Update 2 => Stack Social hasn't processed the order yet. It's 1AM EDT. I tried to cancel payment with Paypal but Paypal autoteller said they can't cancel the order.

Update 3 => Got an email from them stating they never issue refunds with a link to their policy of no refunds. I explained that I wanted to pay the $18.99 coupon price not the $40+ price they charged me. I haven't heard back from them. I cancelled the full payment via Paypal. If this is how their customer service works. I wont do business with them. My state's laws REQUIRE there be a period of time for a refund or store credit. The Attorney General would send them a letter if he knew about this.

Update 4 => I got a refund via Paypal. I got an email from a rep saying the issue was escalated to him. He said he couldn't give me the coupon price because I started a refund with Paypal. He said it's in dispute. Paypal told me it's done. He detailed how I could go into Paypal to cancel my demand for refund. It's already completed. I got the money back. Paypal is great. Ivacy is bad news.

As far as "lifetime" goes for those who wonder, I have a "lifetime" policy with Verizon. All my paperwork says they sold me a lifetime policy. No where do they define what "lifetime" means. Presumably, legally, it would be MY lifetime or the average lifetime of those who purchased the policy.

Over the phone, Verizon told me "lifetime" means the lifetime of the policy. I stated there was no statement of what the lifetime of the policy is. I was informed that the lifetime is whatever Verizon decides to limit it to. The rep. stated they can end it at anytime.

Legally, I believe if they end ONE person's lifetime policy claiming the policy's life had ended, they would have to end the policy of EVERY policy holder. It's unlikely they would do that and piss-off hundreds of thousands of customers.

If you were to take them to court over it, it would seem a no-brainer that you would win but they're the 800 pound guerilla and we're pee-ons. The guerilla could get away with peeing wherever and on whoever he wants.

Legally it's reasonable for you to assume that "lifetime" means YOUR lifetime. Since they don't stipulate a length of time, a judge could either rule in your favor or discern what a reasonable length of time is for the policy to be and if that time has past, you're S.O.L..

They've changed the definition of "lifetime". Legally, they didn't define a meaning different from the norm and they've mislead you. They've intentionally left the words "of the policy" out of the sentence, "for the Lifetime of the policy" and not defined that "lifetime" refers to the lifetime of the policy and not stated what that lifetime is. Essentially it's a service at will as long as you wish to purchase it and they wish to sell it to you at that price. They've worded it differently to con you into thinking you're getting something special where as you're not getting anything special. You think the price will go up and that you've purchased an assurance that the price will never go up for your entire life. That's a fraud to get you to buy something without telling you how long the price is guaranteed, a lifetime deal without telling you how long the lifetime is. Upon inquiry, they stipulate they can end the life whenever they choose. They infer/mislead that it is perpetual but it's limited at their discression. That's simply a normal month to month policy, not a lifetime warranty. They added the word "lilfetime" to make you think you're getting something special when you're actually getting the same old, same old norm.
