We’re toying with the idea of using a VPN for watching TV abroad, and also the security it would offer when online banking etc.
Does any body use one and are they easy to install and manage please.

I've ran a VPN now for a few years Rog it's called PIA we have it on all our phone and tablets well pleased with it.I carnt remember how easy it was to install it was to long ago but I can do I would think you can lololol

Thanks Jeff, PIA is the one I was considering
Does it allow watching tv in different countries and is it secure for online banking?

Exwindsurfer · Monday at 11:28 AM

Yes and you can choose which country you want to be in

If I am downloading a film I always use the VPN

RoaminRog · Monday at 11:32 AM

Is it easy to use would you say

We are trying Windrush at the moment, the free version gives you a limited choice of Uk sites and we've been able to get bbc.co.uk instead of bbc.com, I wouldn't trust any free vpn for secure stuff though. I always tether to a uk mobile for online banking.

I am sure it's the 3 year plan I have.

Thanks Dave, we have heard that free vpn sell your details to advertising companies

Exwindsurfer · Monday at 11:38 AM

Yes you just click on what ever country you like and that's it I away got for the one with the fastest speed .

At the moment, it’s £1.69 a month

Would you say it’s reasonably safe for online banking?

Exwindsurfer · Monday at 11:42 AM

You can have a months free trial as well Rog

Its a good price if you need it, the french site are offering 3 years + 3 months free for €1.79

If you go on to Youtube and look for a channel called Cyber Waffle, he is doing a very good deal on PIA. I think it is 86% off the normal price plus 4 months free.

Exwindsurfer · Monday at 11:43 AM

I don't bank but Chris does and she just said yes lololol

RoaminRog · Monday at 11:44 AM

That’s brilliant guys, thanks all for the replies.

Exwindsurfer · Monday at 11:45 AM

We are some time into our second 3 year stint with them Rog.
