I’ve been tempted to try some VPN free trials before committing to a long-term plan, but I’m paranoid about privacy during the trial period. Do these “free” trials really provide the same level of encryption and protection as their paid plans, or are there hidden risks? Has anyone had good or bad experiences with free trials exposing their data?
Yes they are 100% safe to use. I’ve used free trials for NordVPN and Surfshark myself and both times it’s been a smooth process, and you can cancel at any time. They will work the same as paid plans, because these services want you to continue using their platforms after the free trial is up.
Depends on the VPN I imagine. Most of the popular ones will be safe to use. NordVPN, Surfshark, ProtonVPN, etc. Anything that does offer a free trial, usually makes it easy to cancel.
And yes, they give you the same protection and encryption you get when you start paying. Once you start your free trial, you can use the service as a paid subscriber.
Yep, just read the fine print and know when the trial ends.
Yes you just need to go with a reputable one. Check out these free trial VPNs, for example.
