Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service, and the VPN service is first rate. You can reach their customer service both on their website through a chat option or even on Twitter/X. I've been using their service for years now with no complaints.

I signed up for this and they took my money but sent my confirmation to someone else’s email. I’ve been trying to contact them but it says I’m blocked. I would like to resolve this issue.

Thank god Luis M answered the phone

Thank god Luis M answered the phone. I've had many phone calls for your help. I love the program. Many people use it because of me. I was on a conference call with my brother and Luis M to get my brothers IpVanish to open. He made three phone calls to get help and no one was able to correct his problem until my conference call with Luis M and my brother. Not only was the problem fixed, he did it in 5 minutes. Luis is the best technician I'e seen in a long time, He was very presise and knew exactly what to do. This man gets a 5 star rating in my book for being knowledgable, courteous and patient.

I used IPVanish mainly for privacy on public WiFi and to access streaming content while traveling. Connection was generally stable and the app were easy to set up. Feature I’d love to see: a simpler 1-click connect for beginners and more server locations in Pakistan, also more consistent speeds during peaks times and adding WireGuard protocol would make it competitive with newer VPNs. Cancellation was easy, and support was helpful when I asked about how to cancel either through dashboard and through emailing them.

IPVanish refuses to honor their own Guarantee—Avoid if you use iOS.

IPVanish is hiding behind Apple’s payment system to avoid fulfilling their 30-day money-back guarantee. I reached out to their support after being charged for an unintended renewal. Even with Apple’s Senior Advisor advising them to provide manual authorization, IPVanish support refused to help, stating their policy is 'isolated' from Apple purchases.

It’s ironic for a 'Privacy and Security' company to act so unethically regarding billing transparency. They take your money through the App Store but hide when it’s time to stand by their promise. Avoid this company if you value customer service and honest business practices.

UPDATE: Their Management team contacted me, only to officially refuse a manual settlement. They hide behind Apple's payment system to avoid honoring their 30-Day Guarantee. DO NOT BUY IF YOU USE iOS. The guarantee is a complete lie.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration this situation has caused. We always aim to be transparent and fair with our policies, and it’s disappointing to hear that we fell short of your expectations.

Because Apple manages all transactions made through the App Store within their own secure ecosystem, we unfortunately do not have the technical ability to process direct refunds for those purchases. However, we want to look into your case closely to see how we can better assist you and see what options are available.

Please reach out to our team directly at management@ipvanish.com with your account details. We will prioritize your request and do everything we can to help resolve this for you.
