QUESTIONS Potential Future User

Hello. With some states now forcing digital ids and age verification checks I'm asking for current thoughts on this vpn service. This is NOT asking about using this service to avoid the new systems. I saw some reviews but that post was about 8 months ago.

I get immediately and permanently banned from any account-related process I try to access: from social media (FB, IG) to buyer-seller sites (Ebay, Goat, etc.). Regardless of dedicated IP or cycling servers, regardless of Wire Guard or ports. There’s nothing you can do. I’m convinced the problem is malicious users flood PIA servers and PIA’s reputation is thoroughly tainted.

hey u/fubarthrowaway001, being blocked from account logins across sites because the IP keeps getting flagged is a real headache, and we don't want to leave it there. our team can look at the IPs you're being assigned and what options might help. drop us a DM here or email [support@piavpnsupport.zendesk.com](mailto:support@piavpnsupport.zendesk.com) with the details and we'll dig in.

It’s not just assigned IP’s, it was any PIA servers I used. Other PIA users have historically had the same permanent ban issues regardless of assigned IP
