Welcome dear friends I am Shakeel Khan and today we’ll discuss about “Tips for choosing a VPN for streaming” and also we will review 11 VPNs.
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have become increasingly popular in recent years as people have become more aware of the importance of protecting their online privacy and security. With so many VPN services available on the market it can be overwhelming trying to determine which one is the best option for your needs. That’s why one man decided to take matters into his own hands and test out 11 of the most popular VPN services for 30 days to see which one truly stands above the rest.
The man, who goes by the name Josh and runs the YouTube channel “All Things Secured” spent a total of $671 buying subscriptions to 11 different VPN services on the same day. He used a fake persona to avoid any bias or special treatment and his goal was to see if there were any significant differences between these VPN companies and if they would honor their money back guarantees.
Pricing Strategy Of The VPNs
The first aspect Josh examined was pricing strategies. He found that VPNs often try to confuse customers with their pricing making it challenging to compare them directly. However by opting for a 1 year subscription with each service he was able to make a fair comparison. Surprisingly there was a significant difference in pricing with PureVPN being the lowest at $38.95 and VyprVPN being the highest at $108.25. The average price for a 1 year subscription came out to be around $50 to $60.

VPNs Auto renewal Process
Josh also looked into how each VPN handles auto renewals. He found that all of the services except for one had auto renewal turned on by default. This means that they would automatically charge his payment method when it came time to renew the subscription unless he manually turned it off. The only service that gave him a choice was IVPN making it the best option for those who prefer not to have automatic renewal.
Personal Information Required
Next Josh considered the personal information required to create an account with each VPN. He found that all but IVPN required an email address which isn’t too difficult to create. However he was surprised to see that IPVanish was the only one that asked for a full home address. He also highlighted the importance of using a fake or burner email address when signing up for a VPN as they often add you to their marketing database and send out unsolicited emails. He recommends using a non personal email address to protect your privacy.
VPNs Speed
In terms of installation speed Josh found that ExpressVPN was the fastest taking only 50 seconds to download and get connected to a server. The slowest was VyprVPN which took over three minutes. However most of the services fell within the one minute mark. Josh also mentioned that each VPN has its own unique features but he didn’t go into detail in this article.
Refund Policy Of VPNs
One important aspect Josh addressed was the issue of refunds. He wanted to see if the companies would honor their money back guarantees if he asked for a refund within 30 days. While most VPNs offered a refund without any hassle two of them did not including one that Josh had previously recommended in his reviews. This showed that it’s essential to do thorough research before committing to a VPN service.

Last Words
After testing out 11 popular VPN services for 30 days and requesting refunds from all of them Josh found that some were worth the money while others fell short. ExpressVPN and NordVPN stood out as the top performers in terms of pricing features and also for streaming these two are the top VPNs. However ultimately the best VPN for you will depend on your specific needs and preferences. It’s crucial to do thorough research and consider factors such as pricing privacy policies, and customer support before making a decision. By following Josh’s advice and recommendations you can find the best VPN to protect your online activities and maintain your privacy.
