SquidVPN Review & Test (2025) - Use At Your Own Risk

One of the key reasons for using a VPN is to increase your security online. No respectable VPN will prompt a security warning, if you get one it should be your queue to run to a trusted service like ExpressVPN.

Unfortunately for SquidVPN, that was only the first of many negative signs.

Once we accessed the website, things did not improve. There is limited information on the site, and much of the available information was impossible to verify due to the lack of active customer service channels.

According to that website, SquidVPN offers an SSL-secured network that uses 256-bit encryption across optimized servers in 56 locations spanning 20 countries. The service includes unlimited speed and bandwidth – at least, it would if you could sign up for it.

The software itself is easy to download and there are native apps for most operating systems. The problems start when you try to create an account.

Whether you click on the Create an Account link on the website (if it’s working) or contact SquidVPN via another channel, you will ultimately be redirected to a different provider – PatronVPN. After a little digging, we found that both VPNs are offered by the same parent company, Professional VPN.

This implies that it's been unfeasible to verify the supplier's assertions of having the capacity to bypass geographical restrictions on websites, as well as providing unrestricted bandwidth along with trustworthy and speedy connections. We aren't even in a position to confirm the current existence of the VPN.

The only thing we can say with any certainty is that SquidVPN has very poor customer service and is seemingly in no rush to increase its customer base. If you’re looking for a reliable VPN, you should definitely look at other options.
