Thanks, I wanted to try proton but surfshark works and actually allows existing users to get these deals. No hoops to jump through. Good until 2029.

Community Reviews

Surfshark is a low-cost VPN bundle that stands out for easy account renewal, clean apps, and useful privacy extras like email and phone aliases. The service has worked well for long stretches, including travel and remote access, and the current offer can even be extended on existing accounts. The main drawbacks are inconsistent performance for some setups, with reports of random disconnects, retry-heavy connections, weak upload speeds for torrenting, and occasional split-tunneling issues. It is a strong value if you want a budget VPN with extra privacy tools and can live with some speed and reliability tradeoffs.

  • Surfshark can work well for everyday use and may help when traveling, such as attending a work meeting while abroad.

    fritzo

  • Surfshark's alias feature can support email forwarding and phone number masking for privacy-focused use cases.

    Datty

  • Surfshark can extend existing subscriptions and may allow a second checkout to add additional years.

    Gorosaurus

  • Surfshark can deliver strong download performance for some torrenting use cases.

    bubbagumper6

  • Surfshark can experience random disconnects every 1-2 days during regular use.

    JohnnySlick777

  • Surfshark can require retrying multiple times to establish a connection, even though it may work most times.

    lepton_ytht

  • Surfshark can show major speed drops, such as reducing speeds from around 500 Mbps to about 50 Mbps.

    McNutsack

  • Surfshark split-tunneling or bypass rules may not behave as expected, with traffic still appearing to go through the VPN.

That's what I'm wanting to know too. Does it let you stack on top of an existing subscription?

Anything of $0, you might as well not use VPN. Someone is mining your data. But people are free to do what they will.
Aren't we just handing over our data to the VPN provider.

seems expensive for just a vpn
This is as cheap as it gets for any provider that is likely not just selling your data. If it's cheaper - you're the "cost".

It does - I was able to extend mine.

Quote from nathan646 View quoted comment :

Yes, but there's a difference between providers who get audited vs not. Keeping logs vs not.
Not saying Surfshark is the GOAT (it's not), but it's arguably one of the best bang for the buck for something that keeps no logs, and gets regularly audited.

With anything - don't trust a random stranger on the internet, do some research on your own - or trust this stranger Wink.

Maybe I was using this wrong in the past, but my speeds would drop from 500mbps to 50 when using this VPN. I could never get higher speeds. Mostly used this for torrenting, not sure what other use for the average home consumer there is besides general paranoia but I do be a dummy at tech

I've been using surfshark for about 3-4 years now. Everything works fine except bypass unless I'm doing it wrong because traffic still seems to go thru the vpn for websites I include in the bypass list.

I have fiber 500/500. My torrent machine is kinda far away from the main router (amazon aero ) which is in my clothes closet. I'm using another AC6 router as an ethernet bridge to connect the torrent machine to the amazon router (2.4 Ghz band). I can get close to 100mbs.

How is it a scam? Unless you've never used them before, cashback deal won't work
How do you think they're enforcing it? I got the NordVPN cashback 3 times with 3 different emails.

You're not looking then.
Had multiple deals @ $15-$20 per year that's stackable for multiple years.
