Ympker's VPN LTD Comparison Chart
Looking to grab a LTD on Stacksocial for a VPN Service?
Here is a comparison chart featuring all the VPN Services I have a LTD of:
Windscribe Pro, Ivacy, FastestVPN, RA4W VPN, VPNUnlimited/Keepsolid, Getflix.
The following criteria will be assessed: Purchase date, Jurisdicition, Speed, Connection Stability, Own Client, Manual setup protocols available, Torrents, Flix, Cool Extras and whether the LTD has an expiry date set in the client area.
I'll try to update it (especially the speeds table) ever so often
Any questions, feel free to ask.
Yes, I'm an LTD addict

@Ympker I thought you started a company "Ympker VPN LTD", like few countries have "PVT LTD". Thanks for comparison.
I miss the "Collects and/or sells data" column. Easy to autofill all rows with yes.
That's what they all surely do. Or not. I don't know and don't want to. I don't use the VPNs for privacy, really. If it's dirt cheap like these, you sometimes are the product though
Honestly, I don't think they (all) do. Much more likely that they are cheaply reselling on a no-upfront-investment revenue share system. Like Ivacy and FastestVPN are reselling PureVPN for example. So they don't have much extra costs on their own since they operate (probably) on revenue share.
Their privacy policy has "private internet access promotional offers" in it, so they probably copied it.
FastestVPN doesn't resell PureVPN. (at least not the locations I used)
Ah, lol.
I posted this in another thread. Personally, I am really sure FastestVPN is reselling PureVPN or Ivacy. Since Ivacy is reselling PureVPN, it doesn't matter at this point.
Taken from other thread:
Updated chart to include my latest purchase: Keepsolid Smart DNS Lifetime (28$)
WIP: Adding a list of LE users that use the VPNs mentioned in my comparison chart:
Next up: Ivacy, FastestVPN, Windscribe Pro. Stay tuned
You've got me listed twice under Keepsolid. I didn't notice any other duplicates, but you could sort them alphabetically to catch that in the future.
Thanks, might actually be a good idea
I was using their trial, but just pulled the trigger and I'm happy I've done so.
Now, about your chart. Ivacy actually has Netflix UK, but only for the browser extensions. Although, I tested yesterday on my phone with a random UK server on their app and it worked with Netflix, for some reason. Just a heads up.
Although I unfortunately do not have Windscribe LTD, I have something like 6 months left with them mostly to be able to watch UK Netflix.
I hope they do a 12 hour LTD sometime in the future, although highly unlikely.
I also tried Netflix UK with Ivacy and Netflix did indeed load but I don't think it was UK, neither with Windscribe UK. I was looking for Season 7 of Brooklyn Nine Nine which apparently released on Flix UK. Can you double check if you can find that show using UK Flix Browser extension from Ivacy/Windxcfibe?
Just checked. For some reason, the UK Windflix didn't work from Windscribe's Mac App. I was able to use both Windscribe and Ivacy UK Netflix's on the browser extension, in Chrome.
You can look for The Big Bang Theory which is 100% on UK (I have been watching for a while, actually watched yesterday at work).
Just wanted to say nice contribution to the community with your spreadsheet, @Ympker.
Certainly helpful!
Thanks for checking. I could indeed find The Big Bang Theory. However, Brooklyn Nine Nine still shows only 5 seasons when season 6 should have aired March 28th in the UK: https://www.tyla.com/entertaining/tv-and-film-brooklyn-nine-nine-season-6-netflix-saturday-20200324
People saying it's out, not for me though. Same problem like the OP: https://www.reddit.com/r/netflixuk/comments/frf8qr/is_the_brooklyn_ninenine_season_6_available/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
For me using Windflix UK I can see the 6th season. Try perhaps cleaning the cache of the browser or logging out and logging in?
Was using the android app this time. Before I'd use the browser. I'll try.
Link's got updated due to some unintentional purge:

@FAT32 @raindog308 @jbiloh can you update the OP, please?
Done.
Thanks! Can you please also update the Shared Hosting Chart?
Any recommendations for VPNs over Black Friday/Cyber Monday? It's been a while since the sheet was updated and the prices seem to have increased over on Stacksocial.
Thanks!
All the lifetime VPNs that are still available from the list would be sold on Stacksocial, normally. That means the best recommendation is to monitor Stacksocial for discount codes (Honey Web App, or check Stacksocial site) which can possibly be applied to the VPN of your choice. That said, some vpns are excempt from discount codes.
My personal recommendations of StackSocial lifetime VPNs is VPN Unlimited (solid allrounder), Ivacy (unblocks lots of streaming services; 5 year access then contact support to renew free of charge), FastestVPN (solid and cheap alternative; lots of M247). In that order.

Price Drop
Thanks Ympker and Mumbly! The ivacy and VPN Unlimited bundles both look like great deals!
Windscribe has a deal for $29/y.
Do you (or anyone here) have any experience with BulletVPN?
I don't have personal experience with any VPN provider, however after some digging I noticed that some people prefer this VPN provider (with lifetime StackSocial offer) above others lifetime deals.
Seems like Ivacy sister's company PureVPN (or that's StackSocial fault? - I am not sure how those deals work) didn't honour StackSocial lifetime deals with free renewal option after 5 years.

I believe @sanvit has experience with BulletVPN.
I've had it (lifetime) since 2020. No issues so far, but to be fair I never use it. ;-)
Classic idler
@Ympker any good BF deals on these?
Apologies, Never heard of them
