In June 2024, the demise of VPNArea will be written into history What we once considered one of the best VPNs on the market now seems to have disappeared without a sound, a whisper
The company's website, first discovered by a sharp-eyed Reddit user, still appears in search engines but does not load when clicked; VPNArea's X (formerly Twitter) account has also been silent since June 15 The company, registered in Bulgaria as Offshore Security LTD, has also been silent on its LinkedIn page for over a week
This is very disappointing First, because competition leads to better products for end users, and second, because VPNArea appears to have disappeared without warning
The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine shows that the site was functioning normally as of May of this year
The simple answer is to cancel your subscription if possible There are many better VPN services available today, but even if VPNArea is restored, it does not reassure users that it will disappear without warning
Above is the contact section of VPNArea's website Try support@vpnareacom or billing@vpnareacom as your first contact However, if you don't hear back (which you probably won't), I'd like you to manually cancel the direct debit
This may be difficult if you are seeking a refund In a business such as this, there are few physical locations to write letters to As mentioned, the company is registered in Bulgaria, but the servers are in Switzerland
If you now find yourself without a VPN, you may be asking what the best alternative is Well, we think NordVPN is the best choice for most people
One of the best things about VPNArea was the fact that it does not collect data logs from its users Besides, Nord has servers in 111 countries, compared to VPNArea's 55 countries
NordVPN is only getting better Just this month, it launched its new Threat Protection Pro service, which combines elements of an antivirus service with automatic detection of suspicious URLs, malware, and phishing scams
