We would definitely recommend giving WorldVPN a try. We tested its overall performance and we found it worthy of our time. The company gives internet users a lot of subscription options to meet everybody’s needs, it also offers free trial and money-back guarantee. The prices are very attractive. WorldVPN also features a large server network and necessary security tools, like: DNS leak protection and kill switch. We believe, however, that the website needs a lot of improvements to make it easier on the eyes and equally easy to navigate. Moreover, we hope that live chat support is improved to help customers 24/7.
