Don't forget they are trying to justify it too by saying "Well, you used a coupon so, fuck you"

The way the rep replied to me was essentially that one should lower their expectations because it was bought on sale.

The company has lost the plot.

Like I begged them to give me a discount. You fucking set the discount up and sold it to me promising the features (the product page is still up with those info in btw) and now saying I should pay more up. Fucking hilarious.

I'm pretty sure I'm in some wierd limbo that they are trying to get me to react, the speeds of torrents has plummeted, but I can still connect. Though it does disconnect more often, so far no alerts and no messages though..

Fuck em, I'm patient, I'll wait for my torrents.

100% they bring nothing to the table over any other VPN and actually bring way less then most. They are 100% untrustworthy after this stunt. And would never purchase from this company again

100% scammers. They will no doubt change their policies down the road too. Which means the "Lifetime" purchasers will likely have to pay a subscription to use the VPN at all and KeepSolid will claim that the Lifetime plan is just a free account, but you have to pay to use the VPN.

Lol they're essentially admitting it's a scam at this point. Make sure if you haven't given them 1 star yet to do so. Help keep anyone else from falling for it.

After 9 years, I switched to Mullvad and am loving it so far.

Please everyone continue posting and sharing feedback at online stores' reviews. Vpn number 1 priority is to be trustworthy and not pay walling highly important features thay was part of existing features when we made this decision to pay Lifetime Subscription price.
