ExpressVPN

ExpressVPN is a popular British Virgin Islands-based provider of VPN services. It's a tough market and there's a lot of competition around, but ExpressVPN knows exactly how to stand out from the crowd: it delivers more features than just about anybody else.

For example, the company offers a vast network of more than 2,000 servers spread across 148 cities in 94 countries. Europe and the US have the best coverage, but ExpressVPN also has many locations in Asia and several countries who rarely appear elsewhere (there are locations in South America, the Middle East, Africa and more.)

Platform support is another highlight, with ExpressVPN providing apps for Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Linux and others, as well as detailed setup support for routers, Apple TV, Fire TV, PlayStation, Chromebooks, Kindle Fire and more.

Your account only supports three simultaneous connections, which can't match some of the top competition (NordVPN allows up to 6, IPVanish allows 10.) But we suspect it's likely to be enough for most users, especially as the router support means you can connect as many devices as you like at home.

There are valuable technical extras everywhere you look. ExpressVPN protects your internet traffic by using its own DNS servers, for instance. High-end encryption technologies prevent even the most advanced attackers from snooping on your activities. And unusual bonus features include a clever split-tunneling system which allows you to control exactly which apps use the VPN, and which will be routed through your regular internet connection, very useful if you find some apps don't work with a VPN, or running through the VPN noticeably slows them down.

A clear and simple privacy policy explains that ExpressVPN doesn't log any sensitive information. And unlike most of the competition, this isn't some generic marketing promise: the company website goes into great detail on exactly what the service does and doesn't collect.

The real standout feature could be support, where unusually ExpressVPN has agents available 24/7 on live chat. This isn't the very basic, outsourced, first-line support you'll often get with other services, either: they're experts who can walk you through just about any technical issue. If you run into trouble, then, you won't be waiting a day for every support response. In our experience, there's always someone available on ExpressVPN's live chat, and you could be getting quality help for your problems within a couple of minutes.

Plans

ExpressVPN has a very simple pricing structure with only three plans, and these start with a monthly-billed product for $12.95 (£10.06). That's a little higher than some of the competition (NordVPN's monthly plan costs $11.95 (£9.29) VyprVPN's feature-limited product is $8.97 (£6.97)), but it's still good value considering the features you get.

Sign up for ExpressVPN's 6-month plan and the price drops to $9.99 (£7.74) per month. That's a fair discount, and it also gives you more flexibility than you'll get with some competitors, who don't offer a 6-month plan at all.

The annual plan cuts your costs still further to a monthly equivalent of $8.32 (£6.44), a chunky 35% discount on the monthly price. It's also a little higher than some competitors (NordVPN's annual plan is $6.99 (£5.42) a month, VyprVPN's comparable Premium plan is $6.23 (£4.79)), but still within the range of what we would expect for a premium VPN.

The website does an excellent job of spelling out these details in a clear and honest way. There's no attempt to fool you, no headline prices which only apply if you sign up for years and years, no marketing trickery at all. Each plan clearly displays the amount you'll pay per month, the billing frequency and the total amount you'll pay, exactly what you need to know.

The good news continues with ExpressVPN's wide support of payment methods, including cards, PayPal, Bitcoin, and a host of other players (AliPay, Yandex Money, WebMoney and more.)

Support

If you have more questions, ExpressVPN's live chat support could be a major plus. No need to go hunting around the website to try and dig out the information you need, just tap the 'Chat with us' link at the bottom of the order page and you can ask a support agent directly.

If you're still not quite sure, ExpressVPN's 30-day money-back guarantee allows you to safely check out the service for yourself, and the mobile apps also come with 7-day trials. 

If you decide you want to cancel, it's also very straightforward. You don't have to jump through hoops, make a phone call, fill in forms, justify why you want to leave, and there are no small-print clauses to catch you out (no refund if you've logged on more than x times, or used more than y GB of bandwidth.) You can use the service, in full, for 30 days, and if you're unhappy, or you simply change your mind, just tell ExpressVPN and you'll get your money back. That has to be a reassuring sign of just how confident ExpressVPN is in its service.

Privacy

Privacy

Every VPN claims to offer complete privacy, but drill down to the detail and there's often very little substance to back this up. ExpressVPN is refreshingly different, because the company doesn't just tell you how great it is, it also has an impressively lengthy list of features to help justify every word.

Take encryption, for instance. Most services might mention that they support OpenVPN, or drop in a reference to AES-256, but ExpressVPN goes much, much further.

The company explains that it uses a 4096-bit SHA-512 RSA certificate, for example, with AES-256-CBC to encrypt its control channel and HMAC (Hash Message Authentication Code) protecting against regular data being altered in real time.

To confirm this, we examined ExpressVPN's configuration files for OpenVPN, and the details were just as the company had described.

Support for Perfect Forward Secrecy adds another layer of protection by automatically assigning you a new secret key every time you connect, and then replacing it every sixty minutes while the session remains open. Even if an attacker has somehow managed to compromise your system, the very most they'll get is 60 minutes of data.

If you're not an encryption geek, this essentially just means ExpressVPN's encryption scheme is as good as you'll get, anywhere. But if you're familiar with the low-level technical details, you'll appreciate the in-depth explanations the company provides on its website.

DNS support is another highlight. ExpressVPN doesn't just offer DNS leak protection, to prevent data about your online activities leaking out of the tunnel, but it also runs its own private, zero-knowledge, 256-bit encrypted DNS on each of its own servers. That's a major advantage over other services, which often just redirect your DNS traffic to OpenDNS or some other third-party service. Apart from the risk of logging at the DNS server, using unencrypted DNS gives attackers the chance to intercept your requests, filter them, block them and more, all issues which largely disappear using the ExpressVPN scheme.

We didn't test the DNS server in-depth, but websites such as ipleak.net, dnsleaktest.com and browserleaks.com confirmed that ExpressVPN servers were using the IP address for their DNS queries, and none of them had any DNS or traffic leaks.

Logging

Check out the typical VPN website and you'll usually find 'NO LOGGING!' claims prominently displayed in a very large font, but a privacy policy which either gives you very little details on the specifics, or reveals that the company does log some of your information, after all.

Once again, ExpressVPN doesn't waste your time with any of this marketing trickery, instead just taking the time to properly explain how its service works.

This starts on the front page of the website, where the company sums up its position with these few words: "Based in the British Virgin Islands, a tropical oasis without data retention laws. No activity logs. No connection logs." If you're not overly concerned about logging, that could be all you need to know.

If you need more, the company doesn't force you to scroll through 2,000 words of jargon-packed small print. A clearly-written 'Policy towards logs' page explains what ExpressVPN collects, what it doesn't, why the service works this way, and what it means for users.

The good news is the service doesn't keep any logs of your IP address when you connect to ExpressVPN, the time you've logged in, the VPN IP address you're assigned, any information on the websites or pages you're visiting (including via DNS requests) or any of your traffic.

There is still some logging. The company records each date when you connected to the service, and your choice of server. But as it doesn't store the connection time, or the IP address you were allocated, there's no way anyone can link this data back to a specific ExpressVPN account.

The company also records the version number of any clients you've installed, along with the total amount of data you've transferred each day. This data also doesn't constitute any kind of privacy risk, and we've no doubt that other VPNs do similar things: they just don't admit it.

We thought we had spotted a minor snag in ExpressVPN's analytics data, where its VPN clients can collect speed test information, connection failures, crash reports and more. But, no - once again, ExpressVPN outperformed the competition. The company explains that this data is anonymized, so there's no way to tell which speed test results came from which client. What's more, you can tell the client not to send telemetry during the installation process, or disable it at any time with a click.

As with all VPNs, most of this must be taken on trust. No external reviewer can audit the internal procedures of a VPN to see if the reality matches up to the claim.

But, what's clear is that ExpressVPN understands the issues and is making considerable efforts to explain them, properly and in full, to its customers. That in itself is reassuring, and a huge improvement on the detail-free privacy policies of many VPNs.

Even if ExpressVPN doesn't quite follow all its rules, its base in the British Virgin Islands (BVI) brings plenty of benefits.

The country isn't a part of '14 Eyes', the intelligence sharing agreement also known as SIGINT Seniors Europe (SSEUR), and not known to be a party to any of its intelligence-sharing arrangements.

Despite its small size, the BVI regulates its own affairs and the UK and USA don't have jurisdiction to automatically compel ExpressVPN to release any data. To make this happen, a complainant would have to raise the issue in the BVI High Court, show that the records related to a serious crime (one punishable by a year or more in prison if it happened in the BVI), and explain how those records would provide relevant evidence to that case. It's hard to see how the minimal ExpresVPN records could provide useful evidence of anything.

Put this all together, and although ExpressVPN logs a small amount of data, this doesn't constitute any significant risk, and overall the service does a significantly better job of protecting your privacy than most.

Performance

Speed is an important factor in the choice of a VPN, and we use several intensive tests to find out how a service performs.

The process began by logging in to each of 145 of ExpressVPN's OpenVPN-enabled servers, recording the initial connection times and running some ping tests to check for latency issues. These won't necessarily affect download speeds, but they're still a crucial part of the service experience (if half the servers are always down, or connection times and latencies vary hugely, that's going to be bad news.)

Our first test saw seven connection failures out of the 145 total, or under 5%, while the other servers almost all connected within a reasonable 2 to 5 seconds. As connection issues could be due to our local system, network, ISP and any temporary issue along the way, we ran a second test immediately afterwards. This had 8 connection fails, but only two of which matched the first test, suggesting even these few problems were temporary. To confirm this, we ran ExpressVPN's own client, tried manually connecting to the two 'problem' servers, and got online with both immediately.

These tests were taken over a short period of time and won't necessarily reflect the long-term experience of using ExpressVPN, but from what we saw, the service has no significant connection issues at all.

Latency was reasonable, and performed more or less as we expected. Our local UK connections were fastest, near European servers were almost as speedy, and US servers also managed consistently good performance. The most distant servers (Australia, New Zealand) and locations which don't have the best infrastructure (some areas of South America) saw latency increase and become much more variable, but that was no surprise, and it was never enough of an issue to prevent us browsing comfortably.

Checking download speeds requires a little more work, but we got started by using Netflix' fast.com to test a sample set of ExpressVPN's servers: all six UK locations, 26 in the US, 13 spread across Europe and 9 covering Asia and Australasia. We then ran further tests using OpenSpeedTest and Speedtest to confirm our results. All checks were run on a Windows 10 system accessing a 75Mbps fiber broadband line.

Our local UK performance was generally excellent, with download speeds typically ranging from 50-55Mbps. Even ExpressVPN's worst UK test result, 37.4 Mbps, outperformed many lesser services.

European speeds matched the UK in the closest and best-connected locations, with Amsterdam averaging 55Mbps. These dropped as we tried most distant servers, but were never less than a very acceptable 25Mbps.

US speeds didn't tail off much, with most servers giving us speeds in the range of 40-50Mbps. Occasionally speeds would drop to around 30Mbps, and performance was more inconsistent than in the UK, but that's to be expected, and our results were above average overall.

Even the tricky long-distance tests couldn't break the positive mood. Performance dropped, as expected, and was more inconsistent - Australia ranged from 16-24Mbps, Singapore managed 32-42Mbps, South Korea hit 15-20Mbps, Thailand returned anything from 12Mbps to 30 - but even the worst results were sufficient for browsing, streaming HD content and other general internet tasks.

Netflix

Netflix

One major benefit of a VPN is that it can give you access to geoblocked websites. If your favorite streaming site only allows US visitors to view some content, for instance, log in to a US VPN server and you might bypass the block.

Unfortunately, it's not always that simple. Providers such as Netflix know exactly what users are doing to try and get around their rules, and they're constantly updating their systems to detect and block individual VPNs. Individual websites might also be blocked by anyone from a wifi hotspot administrator who doesn't want users accessing YouTube, to a nation state trying to control the internet use of its entire population. 

Netflix 2

ExpressVPN scored an immediate thumbs-up from us by listing the sites it claims it can unblock : Netflix, iPlayer, Amazon Video, Google, Wikipedia, YouTube and more. Most VPNs don't make that kind of commitment, presumably because they don't want users to complain if they can't deliver, so it's good to see ExpressVPN spell out exactly what it can do.

To get a feel for ExpressVPN's unblocking abilities, we ran a couple of tests. The first required connecting to each ExpressVPN US server, and checking whether we could access US Netflix and geoblocked YouTube sites; the second involved connecting to each UK server, and trying to access BBC iPlayer.

Netflix results were acceptable, with 5 out of 25 locations unblocking the service. This means it might take a while to find a working server yourself, but we found that asking on live chat got us an accurate recommendation within a couple of minutes. If too many ExpressVPN users pile onto the same server then it's possible it could become overloaded, but there were no issues streaming content during our tests.

Unblocking YouTube is always much easier, and sure enough, ExpressVPN gave us instant access from each of its US servers.

And we rounded off the tests with more good news from BBC iPlayer, where all ExpressVPN's UK servers bypassed the blocks and allowed us to browse and stream content.

Torrents

ExpressVPN doesn't appear very torrent-friendly at first glance, as its website doesn't seem to mention P2P at all, but the reality is different. We dug around the FAQ and eventually discovered the truth.

The service not only supports torrents, it also avoids the common hassles and annoyances you'll often get with other services.

Torrent users aren't forced onto a small number of overloaded servers, for instance. You can choose from the full set of ExpressVPN locations.

There are no bandwidth or transfer-related catches, either. The company has no data cap, and says it will never throttle your connection.

Are these promises genuine, or just marketing spin? No review can offer a 100% guarantee, but there's an interesting clue on the website.

Browse the small print for most VPNs and you'll find a 'fair usage' clause which essentially says you're not allowed to use the service 'too much.' NordVPN, for example, forbids 'acts that may materially affect the quality of other users' experience', something which gives them huge scope for limiting your bandwidth use.

Check the ExpressVPN T&C's and you won't find anything similar. There's an Acceptable Use Policy, but that's more about legal issues (including a warning that you mustn't download copyrighted material) than providing sneaky loopholes to help ban heavy downloaders. 

Factor in other key features of the service - no activity logs, lots of locations, apps for everything, the 30-day money-back guarantee - and ExpressVPN looks like a great choice of VPN for all your torrenting needs.

Client setup

Client setup

Getting a VPN client set up properly can sometimes be a challenge, but the well-designed ExpressVPN website has clearly been set up to keep hassles to an absolute minimum.

Log in to your account dashboard, for instance, and you don't have to hunt for a Download link. The website detects the type of device you're using, displays a Download button for that client, and enables grabbing a copy with one click.

If you need something for another platform, clicking 'Set up on all your devices' takes you to a huge list of options, including Windows, iOS, Kindle Fire, Mac, Android, Linux and more. Tapping any of these displays more download links and instructions.

Even these are far more helpful than you would expect. Tap the 'Android' link with most VPNs and you'll probably just be redirected to Google Play. ExpressVPN has a Play Store link, but it also gives you a QR code, a button to email yourself a setup link (ideal if you need to install it on another device), and even an option for experts to directly download the APK file.

In a neat setup touch, ExpressVPN doesn't force you to find and manually enter your user name and password. Instead, all you have to do is copy the unique activation code displayed on your download page, and paste it into the client when you're asked. The client then automatically sets up your login credentials, and you won't have to think about user names and passwords, at all.

Your other option is to set up a third-party OpenVPN client. ExpressVPN makes this much easier by providing sensibly-named .OVPN configuration files (my_expressvpn_argentina_udp.ovpn, as opposed to NordVPN's ar1.nordvpn.com.udp1194.ovpn), and we had the OpenVPN GUI up and running within minutes.

Choose location by city or country

Windows client

The ExpressVPN Windows client has a comfortable and familiar interface which immediately makes you feel at home. A big On/ Off button allows you to activate the service when required, a clear status display shows you the current server, a Choose Location button enables picking something else, and a menu button top-left gives speedy access to other features. 

There are a host of ways to choose the best server. A Smart Location feature picks your closest server. You can double-click a country to access its best location, or browse every location within a country and choose one manually. A Recent Connections list displays your last three choices, making it quick and easy to reconnect. A Search box allows you to find locations by keyword, and you can even add individual locations to a Favorites list. This is just about as much location-picking functionality as we've seen in a VPN client.

The client can be very usable, too. Leave the Location Picker on the Recent tab and it will display your favorites and recent connections whenever it opens. Tap ‘Choose Location’, double-click your preference and the client connects immediately. Quick and easy.

The client also makes smart use of its system tray icon. Right-clicking displays a menu which includes your last three locations, and choosing one of those will get you connected immediately, without having to open the full client at all.

Changing servers while you're connected is fractionally more awkward. Some clients allow you to browse the location list while you're using the service, and if you double-click something, they automatically disconnect from the old server and connect to the new one. ExpressVPN's Windows client forces you to close the current connection before you can choose something else, so there's always an extra click involved.

The Location list doesn't initially display any information on the speed of its servers, something which can help you choose the fastest location for you. The client has a Speed Test feature which can add this for you, and it provides far more useful information than the competition, including latency and an estimate of download speed. It can take a long time to run, though - around 8 minutes to check every available location, on our system - and although you can assess speeds for groups of servers (Europe, Americas, Recommended Locations), you can't ask it to check only your recent and favorite locations, which is possibly where it's needed most. 

A capable Settings dialog allows you to choose from five protocol variations: OpenVPN/ UDP, OpenVPN TCP, L2TP - IPSec, PPTP and SSTP. It's good to have that choice, although we're less enthusiastic about the default 'Automatic' setting, where apparently 'ExpressVPN will automatically pick the protocol most appropriate for your network.' Not only do we have no idea how the decision is made (the website offers no clues), but we can't even check it, because the client doesn't tell you which protocol is currently active. This seems a poor design decision to us, but if you're concerned, it's easily fixed: choose a specific protocol (OpenVPN UDP, probably) and the client will use that, every time.

Elsewhere, a Kill Switch blocks all internet traffic if the VPN connection drops, reducing the chance of any data leaks. There's no setup involved with this, it's enabled by default, and will automatically protect your privacy.

If you know what you're doing, though, there is a far more advanced and interesting option in ExpressVPN's support for split tunneling. Turn this on and you're able to force some apps to use the VPN, while others use your regular internet connection. Setting this up can take some thought, but does offer some important benefits. If an application won't work when your VPN is up (an email client, say), you can make it use your normal internet connection, instead. And if you use your VPN for one or two applications only - a browser, a torrent client - then redirecting everything else out of the tunnel could improve their performance.

Android client main

Android client

If you're new to ExpressVPN, installing the Android app works much like any other. Go to the Play Store, find the app, notice its impressive stats (5 million+ users and a 4.1 rating), install it as usual and work through the signup process.

If you've already set up an ExpressVPN account, there are some easier options. We went to the ExpressVPN web console on our Windows system, chose the Setup > Android page, scanned the QR code and downloaded and installed the app (your phone must allow installations from outside of the Play Store for this to work.)

We still had to make a couple of basic setup choices, for example deciding if we wanted to allow the client to send anonymous analytics back to ExpressVPN, but otherwise the process was completed in seconds. In particular, we didn't have to worry about finding and entering some cryptic user name and password, because the client configured that automatically during installation, and once that's done you need never see a login screen again. (Although you can sign out for extra security, if you prefer.)

The client looks good, and works in much the same way as the Windows edition. An excellent Location Picker makes it quick and easy to find and reconnect to particular servers, you can connect and disconnect with a click, and the straightforward interface allows you to check your current location and VPN status at a glance.

The Android client leaves out some of the more advanced features from the Windows edition. There's no Speed Test, for instance, which means you'll only ever see the names of ExpressVPN locations, with no indicator of how fast, slow or overloaded they might be.

The Settings section is also far more limited. You're able to have the client reconnect when Android starts, and to choose whether the protocol should use TCP or UDP, but that's where it ends.

These aren't critical issues, though, and the app improves on the Windows experience in one or two areas. You don't have to manually close the current connection before you can choose a new location, for instance - just pick another server from the list and the client will automatically disconnect and reconnect for you.

Even better, install the app and you can try the service for free for 7 days, an offer you won't get if you sign up on the website. If you're at all interested in Android VPN apps, ExpressVPN needs to be on your shortlist.

iOS client main

iOS client

ExpressVPN's iOS client takes a few more taps to install than its Android cousin, but that's mostly due to Apple's extra security measures. You have to spend a little longer confirming that the app is authorized to do what it needs, and there's no Android-like direct download app link to save you some time.

The setup procedure still only takes a couple of minutes, though, and once it's done, the app opens with the same clean and straightforward interface that you'll see on other platforms.

If you're only interested in encrypting and anonymizing your current connection, there's barely anything to do or learn. The app automatically selects your closest server, and all you have to do is tap the Connect button to activate the VPN, and tap again to turn it off.

The well-designed Location Picker offers multiple ways to find specific cities or countries, as well as maintaining a Recent Connection list and allowing you to add commonly-used locations to your Favorites.

As with the Android app, the iOS edition allows you to switch servers without manually closing the current connection first. This only saves you a single tap, but if you regularly switch servers, it's going to be a welcome usability plus.

The app only has two significant settings, but that's not quite the criticism it sounds: they're both a little more interesting than we expected.

Your choice of protocol doesn't just include OpenVPN UDP, TCP and IPSec, for instance - you also have access to IKEv2, which isn't available on Windows or Android.

And although the app doesn't have a kill switch, it does include an auto-reconnect option which will try to re-establish the tunnel if your connection drops.

We've seen more feature-packed VPN clients, but on balance ExpressVPN's iOS offering is likeable, easy to use and delivers the functionality most users are likely to need. And if you'd like to check the service for yourself, good news: as with Android, there's a risk-free 7-day trial available.

Get extension

Browser extensions

The ExpressVPN clients are generally very polished and easy to use, but they're not your only way to work with the VPN. The company also offers Chrome and Firefox extensions which allow you to control the client and service directly from your browser.

Installing the extension adds an ExpressVPN icon to your toolbar, and clicking this displays an interface very similar to the regular clients: the current VPN status, a big On/ Off button, and an option to choose your preferred location.

If you're mostly using ExpressVPN with your browser, then in theory this makes life far more convenient. There's no need to switch from Chrome to the client and back, every time you want to do something, because the core functions you need are available from the browser interface.

The reality is sometimes a little different, because the browser extension does have quite the same feature set as the main ExpressVPN client. The most significant difference we noticed is that although we had built up a list of favorites in our Windows client, this wasn't available from the browser extension. That might not matter at all if you only use the same one or two servers, as you can still see the Recent Connections list, but if you rely on a Favorites list then its absence will be a real pain.

A few of the more advanced tools (the Settings dialog, the speed test) are also only available in the client, but that's less likely to make any difference in day-to-day use.

There's some good news, too, particularly with the Chrome extension, which adds some genuinely useful options of its own. A Privacy and Security section, for instance, gives you settings to prevent HTML5 geolocation from revealing your real location while you're connected to the VPN, as well as blocking WebRTC leaks at the browser level, and using HTTPS Everywhere to automatically force connections to the HTTPS versions of websites whenever they're available.

Not everyone will be interested in the browser extension, and the lack of Favorites support will be a hassle for some. But overall, it's still a worthwhile addition to the package, and there are likely to be more improvements and enhancements to come.

Support

Much like any other networking technology, a VPN can misbehave in many ways, and figuring out exactly what's going on can be a real challenge. That's why even the most experienced user can benefit from quality VPN support.

ExpressVPN's support site gets off to a good start with its lengthy list of troubleshooting guides. Whether you're trying to diagnose slow speeds or dropped connections, understand error messages, change your password or cancel your account, there's useful information to hand.

Most articles are well-written and deliver in all the key areas. They don't assume technical knowledge, instead taking the time to explain the background, offering multiple suggestions to resolve most problems, and linking to other relevant articles where they'll provide relevant details. (For example, where other VPNs might have a single line suggesting you "try another server" to help diagnose speed problems, ExpressVPN also links to a detailed article explaining how to find the best location for you.)

The setup articles are even more impressive. You don't get just one generic installation tutorial per platform, for instance. There are no less than 9 Windows tutorials covering the installation of ExpressVPN's own apps, and manual setup for various Windows versions. You get 8 for Mac, 5 for iOS, 4 for Android, and even Linux has separate setup guides for Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi, Terminal (via OpenVPN) and more.

An accurate search engine scans more than 250 of these articles to find whatever fits your requirements.

If the website can't help, ExpressVPN's support team is available 24/7 via email and live chat.

Chat support confirm cancel

ExpressVPN recommends Live Chat for the fastest results, but we sent a test email question anyway to check response times. Although the company suggests it can take up to 24 hours to get a reply, we got a friendly, detailed and helpful message in only 66 minutes. That's much faster than we expected, and the reply contained everything we needed to diagnose and resolve our issue.

Live chat also performed very well. We ran several checks on the service, there were always agents available, and typically we had a first genuine response (a real comment on our issues, not just an automated 'I'm Steve and I'm here to help you' bot-type reply.)

The quality of chat support was well above average, too, with the agent spending 30 minutes patiently walking us through some well-chosen diagnostic steps. Whether you're a networking newbie or an experienced expert, there's a good chance that ExpressVPN's support will be able to solve any issues within a very few minutes.

Final verdict

Huge network, fast, secure, unblocks Netflix, supports torrents, no serious logging, clients for everything, easy to use - ExpressVPN is a quality VPN which delivers in just about every area.
