    Windscribe VPN gives you 10GB a month free :D
    https://windscribe.com/upgrade

    If you're conservative with what you use the VPN for 10GB goes far. If you're really desperate you could probably set up multiple accounts (not tried this so no guarantees).

    I paid a modest fee for NordVPN but to be honest Windscribe's allowance is enough for me. I mainly use it for when I'm accessing free WiFi hotspots.

    Speeds are actually ok.

    OK I can't get Epic to download any videos - (not even youtube) - the "spinny thing" just spins round and round
    What am I doing wrong ?

    McAfee just bought out Tunnelbear.

    So look for T&C changes to Tunnelbear's usage and logging info...

    As it's based in one of the 5 eyes countries it wasn't advisable to use it anyway, now McAfee have it, even less reason.

    Not the first time I've had a decent helpful post deleted but anyway I had suggested a website which has many VPN services with cheap lifetime licenses, i will try again https://www.sharewareonsale.com

    I took a look at that site and found Bitdefender Total Security advertised as free. I followed the process to get it and found that it was bait and switch/misleading ... it was a 90 day free TRIAL. So I'd be wary of promoting it.

    Ah yes, the problem with that is that the offer has ended, now you are being redirected to their new offer which is a 90 day trial. Each link as some number of reviews from people who have tried it so its a good idea to also read the reviews before downloading anything.

    No - my problem is with how they advertise it ... they say FREE (100% off). Only if you look more closely at the product page can you see that it's a 3 month extended trial version. Why not simply say Free Trial?

    Not sure, click bait probably. But i've provided the link for the VPN services on offer there. you could drop them an email and ask about their bitdefender offer
