£79 per year.

So simple a 3 year old could configure it on your normal Internet Explorer.

Just follow the three steps in the email received after paying.

Support questions answered within minutes.

Picture perfect and no delays through buffering. Full screen!!

Don't tell too many people!

Yes. Through the BBC website using the £5 per month VPN my-private-network.

I paid vpnuk for a 'UK Single User VPN Account' using PayPal three days ago, and so far I have heard nothing from them. I have tried calling them and just get a voicemail machine.

So far extremely unimpressed. I am glad to hear that others have it working, but I thought it best to post my experience here first as a warning to others just in case the company are about to go tits up.

Interesting subject it has taken me a while to sort myself, free proxies are a bit of a waste of time, so in the end I set up my own server in the UK and now it is fine.

If any one wants any help just email me, so long as I do not get to many request I am happy to let you use my UK Proxy and show you how to set up.

Regards
Stephen

I set up with tvexpat,eu and they were very quick to respond and it works great. You can go into your paypal account and cancel the payment I think certainly if it is a subscription type payment you can.
Quote from paypal site: log in to your PayPal account and go to the "History" subtab of the "My Account" tab. Choose "Subscriptions" from the pull-down "Show" menu and press the "Submit" button. Choose this subscription, and click on its "Details" link. You will be taken to a Transaction Details page from which you may cancel your subscription.

Hi everyone.

I'm just putting the finishing touches to something that will allow all of the above, and would like to ask if anyone could help me test it please? It has been a bit of a labour of love for me over the last few months, and is all my own work.

It would only take a few moments of your time and it would be greatly appreciated (not to mention the fact that it would really help me out).

Please PM or email me if you can help or would like to know more. I promise I am not a disgraced MP or fallen banker, so you will be quite safe.

Many thanks in advance.

No one can PM you until you have posted a few more times.

Ah, thank you for letting me know... I am sure I will be reading and posting over the coming days which will solve that problem... I've only just found this place and I think it is great.

As I say, I'm just asking for help in testing my thing, nothing else. I've got it working fine for me, watching The Apprentice on iPlayer as I type.
