Update: Buffered VPN merged with Encrypt.me. We have thoroughly tested Encrypt.me, and you can find everything you need to know in our review.
Buffered VPN has a lot to offer due to its user-friendly interface, fast connection speeds, and reliable security. One thing it can't do is unblock Netflix, you'll need a premium vendor like ExpressVPN for that.

They are no moreAfter being a customer for more than 2 years and paying a premium price for a good service. THEY DON'T EXIST ANYMORE.. No warning, just logged in one day and my app doesn't work and they have changed their website name. STAY AWAY, sounds dodgy.
ExpressVPN is one of the safest, fastest VPNs around, but the one drawback has always been the price. It often offers discounts that make it more affordable, but there are other decent VPNs offering similar security features for much cheaper. So, do you really need to pay so much for a VPN as good as ExpressVPN?
To find the answer, I performed extensive tests on desktop and mobile devices run...
Fastest VPN I've tested.This VPN works very well. It has lots of servers from around the world that you can connect to; hiding your real location and IP address, it allows you to browse the web without being tracked by websites or your ISP. Express VPN has the fastest speeds of any VPN I've tried. Give it a go.

Express VPN is TERRIBLE!After reading all of the rave reviews, I signed up for ExpressVPN. Express VPN constantly causes me to lose my internet connection on my Dell XPS Laptop, Windows 10 especially when booting the computer or waking the computer. I then have to disconnect Express via the task manager and reconnect to internet. It sometimes kills my connection in the middle of tasks. There is no telephone support. Email to support went unanswered. After troubleshooting with Chat and sending my log files which are fine, Chat Support simply said that this was a problem their engineers are aware of. Whaaaaat? So when, if ever, will there be a fix?? Worthless service, Terrible support! Deserves zero stars.

Even though Buffered might seem like the service to use when you want to stream Netflix or Hulu quickly, ExpressVPN really beats out Buffered. The higher amount of servers and server locations really make the service great. ExpressVPN also has a kill switch, which can be incredibly important for some users. This is a feature that Buffered lacks right now. The prices between the two services are almost identical, so why not go with the service that will live up to its promise of fast streaming and great protection?
Honesty and Transparency are two core values of vpnMentor. VPN Companies can't pay to change or delete reviews. When readers choose to buy a vpn service, we sometimes earn affiliate commissions that support our work. Here is an explanation of exactly what we do, and how to support our work.
