			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A summary of service (after almost 2 years of using it):<br />
1) First year speed was very decent ; second year when changes to Great China Firewall (GCF) were implemented OpenVPN stopped working. It took them about 3 month to come up with StealthVPN and during that time clients were not able to tunnel internet traffic. Trusting this guys that it will be fixed I did extend my subscription for next year. Well, fix was implemented but is paid additionaly (working most of the time as well).</p>
<p>What was outrageous after fix was implemented was that new customers were getting fix for free for a certain period of time BUT all customers were asked to pay for all of it (read: scre**d in the a**).</p>
<p>2) For simple questions customer service works good ; for more complicated it takes time.</p>
<p>3) Sellected Ratings<br />
I asked them a question how can I post a review (as over a year customer I thought that I&#8217;ve earn that right). Seeng on their WWW so many very happy customers reviews (and none in the middle nor not happy) made me thinking how it&#8217;s possible?</p>
<p>After question was asked I was asked instantly why I want to do that. During a conversation it came out that Astrill is &#8217;selecting&#8217; reviews that are to be shown. Well, you can judge it by yourself but for me it&#8217;s at least information manipulation&#8230;</p>
<p>4) At the moment, as for China: OpenWeb is mostly working (but it&#8217;s slower than it was before and in some provinces there are problems with connecting to Astrill servers) ; OpenVPN is useless, StealthVPN is working but at about half of OpenWeb speed and is additionaly paid (even to customers that enrolled before GCF was changed&#8230;.)</p>
<p>5) As there is no refund if something changes and you can&#8217;t use the service anymore you&#8217;re screwed.<br />
Astrill does failed to provide current customers fix free of charge  so they can use the service they paid for upfront in the same way they did when enrolling.</p>
<p>Astrill&#8217;s answer was: StealthVPN it&#8217;s more secured and computing power is not free = you want the fix, pay again.</p>
<p>I would recommend to look for an alternative VPN provider that knows how to care about loyal, multiuser client. To be true, I do that at the moment.</p>
