For my VPN needs 7 different devices are not enough. 10 as other providers allow, would be better! The functionality of CyberGhost VPN is great. No complaints necessary.

So far so good. I was using a different VPN but saw the price of Cyberghost and switched. If later on and i don't like it i won't buy anymore because there are lot of other VPN services out there.

Hello Luisky!

We appreciate your feedback regarding the Windows app and the Firefox extension. Your requests for advanced split tunneling and a more feature-rich browser extension have been forwarded to our development team for consideration. Regarding the streaming performance in Belgium, please make sure you are connected to the specific streaming-optimized server for RTBF Auvio BE. You can also try clearing your browser's cache or reconnecting to the server to obtain a new IP address, as this often resolves streaming issues. If the problem persists, please contact our support team via live chat at https://support.cyberghostvpn.com/hc/en-us or by emailing support@cyberghost.ro for further troubleshooting.

OK but expensive and not willing to price match

I was a long-term ZenMate user until they moved over to CyberGhost a few years back. When my renewal was due, unfortunately their new offer was not worth staying and I moved elsewhere for a cheaper, similarly featureful and stable VPN. They were not willing to price match or keep my loyalty of almost 8 years. Very unfortunate but just the way it is I guess.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Streaming services do rotate IPs frequently which is why some servers work better than others. For server selection, our 'Streaming' category in the app is designed to surface the best options for major platforms. Please reach out to support@cyberghost.ro or DM us on social media and we can point you to the right ones.

Shady company

Been with CyberGhost for 3 years and as a service they have been fine. However be very careful with their misleading renewal communications and advertising. My original subscription was buy 1 year and get an additional year free (2years). When it came to renewal it offers the same again, so I went with it expecting another 2 years. A year later it’s charging me again and after clarification they are saying the free year only applies to the first term. No reason as to why the receipt still states 2 years. Very misleading practice. I won’t be renewing.

Response: I have already reached out to customer support and got nowhere.

Hi Joe, thank you for being with us 3 years and we're sorry the renewal didn't match what you expected. Renewal terms can differ from initial promotional offers, and that should always be clearer than it was. Please reach out to support@cyberghost.ro or DM us on social media so we can take a closer look at your account.

Worked fine for a couple of months and then the app on my MacBook Pro just stopped responding. Yes, my software was up to date, yes, my internet connection was working. No, I didn’t have any other memory-sucking apps running. Support was also terrible. Asking me incredibly difficult questions about memory usage etc (which I provided). All I can say is your app sucks on Mac iOS Ventura. I’ve been generous with the 3 stars because I know there are so many variables. Giving you guys the benefit of the doubt.

Basically I would give you 5 stars, BUT...

Basically I would give you 5 stars. BUT:
1) many websites are aware it's a VPN and block it.
2) My main bother: favourites are not kept and new log-ins always bring up the US, France and Germany. Why did you chose these (many people ouyside America try to avoid specifically the US)and why does my favourite not stay there (Melbourne)?

Hello ffhoch!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Some websites actively block VPN traffic to enforce, and this can happen with any VPN service. To resolve this, try clearing your browser's cache and disconnecting and reconnecting to your selected server to get a new IP address. Regarding the issue with your favorites not saving and the app defaulting to the US, France, and Germany, our technical team will need to investigate this app behavior. Please contact them directly via live chat at https://support.cyberghostvpn.com/hc/en-us or by emailing support@cyberghost.ro so they can look into this and help you keep Melbourne as your preferred location.

Auto Renew Cannot Be Turned Off

So, I changed the Auto renew to Off, checked back an it was on again, spent ages on the Chat function making sure the Auto renew was off and I was not going to renew. Couple of weeks later I gat an email telling me My account was going to be renewed, I could cancel but wouldn't get the subscription back.

These people are totally unscrupulous, get their fingers in your pocket and even the fluff is gone. Doesn't matter how often you turn the auto renew function off it will be turned back on.

Hi Fred, we're really sorry about this experience. Auto-renew switching itself back on after you've turned it off and confirmed it via chat is not how it should work, and we completely understand why that feels like a breach of trust. This needs to be looked at properly. Please reach out to support@cyberghost.ro with your account details and reference this review so the team has full context. DM us on social media too and we'll personally make sure this gets escalated and your cancellation is honored. We're sorry it got this far.

The CS person handled the issue with clarity

The CS person handled the issue with clear explanation and solution.
And even though they use BOT but the logic is make sense, in a way when the issue needed human the BOT immediately redirect it to human instead of looping around with BOT. This is make a great user experience for me

Quick and easy support communication concerning my subscription renewal recently, shifting from auto chat to human seamlessly. Both were quality interactions. I have used this VPN for many years without experiencing technical problems. I spent 50 years in IT and can really appreciate the professionalism and product quality of CyberGhost.
