Been pondering for very Long on which VPN (Virutal Private Network) to purchase. Haha. As for why I am thinking of using one is because I like to watch Badminton tournaments and they have a free live Badminton YouTube channel – BadmintonWorld.Tv but it was not allow to show in Singapore.

Haiz, maybe that why it is difficult to attract Singaporean to play competitively and earn a living. How to promote sports in Singapore when you can’t even let Singaporean to watch sports easily.

So no choice, I was reading all the reviews and although ExpressVPN is one of the well known VPN ( Virtual Private Network), I find that their subscription is not cheap. The latest promotion from ExpressVPN is

$99.95 for first $15 months ($6.67).

Sorry, Cozy is a Cheapo. So Cozy check further and found a relative new VPN known as PrivateVPN from the review websites as shown below.

2) https://proprivacy.com/c/best-cheap-vpn-services-4

If you are interested to find out more details, can check the links above. No point wasting time and repeating the reviews.. haha..

TL’DR. Cozy had chosen PrivateVPN.

It seems that the privateVPN will link to you another website that is only offering  65% discount. That is $3.82 for 13 months only and the link is https://privatevpn.com/prices/en25

Enter the website link as shown https://privatevpn.com/prices/comparitech.

You will find the price that I paid for the subscription. That is USD1.89/mth for 24 months.  

And the price Cozy had paid – USD45.36 for 12 months plus free 12 months.. (Total 24 months) Okay, no need to worry and bother about it for a long time. In addition, there is 30 days risk-free 100% money-back guarantee.

The 3 month version is also cheaper too.

After payment was paid by Paypal, PrivateVPN will sent 3 emails immediately to give the invoice, instruction on how to set up the VPN. Since Cozy is using iPhone, accordingly to the instructions, we just need to download PrivateVPN app and allow it to change the VPN setting automatically.

Wah la.. You just need to change the location where there is no restriction to view the live badminton channel and turn it on.

Yes.. Had tried a few YouTube and it seems the network is quite smooth. 

Updated as on 25th Oct 19. Tested and setup on Windows. It seems that have to do it manually, refer to https://privatevpn.com/support/getting-started/windows/windows-10/ikev2 and it works too. Warm and Cozy have manage to enjoy the live badminton match on TV set that is connected to the laptop via the HDMI cable. 

Another good thing is that you can share and use on 6 different devices concurrently. With over 100 servers in 60 countries, you can easily connect and enjoy unlimited speeds on any secure server. Here are the list of servers location that they currently supported.

Watching restricted channel/websites is only one of the many things that can be done with using VPN. Having a VPN will also allow you to stay private and be protected. PrivateVPN provides strong encryption that protects your data, personal information and communications from hackers and thieves and especially when you are on public Wi-Fi. It also provide the ability to hide your IP address and location, giving you complete anonymity and online privacy from marketers, search engines and government surveillance.
