SAVE 33%: A two-year subscription to ProtonVPN is on sale for £5.90 per month as of Jan. 15, or you can try a free plan.


Are you looking for a free VPN? Are you finding the search frustrating due to lack of option that actually work? We know how you feel, but there is hope.

ProtonVPN offers a free service that provides a single VPN connection, servers in three countries, and decent connection speeds. It also has a strict no logging policy and doesn't show any adverts, meaning there is no reason not to give it a try. ProtonVPN is not the only VPN to offer a free service, but most come with catches that make the whole experience pretty unpleasant.

If you absolutely love ProtonVPN, you could consider upgrading to a paid plan with servers in more locations, support for more devices, and more advanced features. ProtonVPN's free VPN service is supported by paying users, so if you strongly believe in free identity protection and data security, it might be worth upgrading.

A two-year subscription to ProtonVPN Plus is on sale for £5.90 per month as of Jan. 15, saving you 33% on list price. This plan provides the highest speeds and protection for up to five devices. This option might be preferable if you're planning on unblocking streaming sites like Netflix.
