Review by Stephane, October 24, 2012
This has been a lifesaver for me works great with freesat and iplayer in Palma.I think it’s been six months and in general i’m reasonably satisfied. thanks!
Review by John Spencer, September 14, 2012
I have used Banana for a years now, in the middle east. really excellent service. Works really well for access to UK and international sites. Best of all, though, is the service support. Due to changing infrastructure in the region, passwords, settings and connections sometimes need to be changed. The support team are so responsive and helpful. Makes a big difference when you are in a remote place and need a hand to fix a connection.
The only downside is that you can’t use Banana for peer-to-peer filesharing, but then that is the same for all the other vpn providers, so no real difference.

Review by Jim, July 7, 2012
Sold on Bananas. Great service, so far. i just installed on Mac, iPad (best) & iPhone – instructions were clear & took just a few minutes for each. I was able to test it out right away on a BBC live stream – & it even worked with 3G on the iPhone. Some stutter on the stream (about the same as Netflix), but I have a weak WIFI connecting at this end & put it down to that. Re Christian & OmarT below, I’m assuming Bananas boosters server access @ their end for peak viewing, say major events – eg Olympics, F1, football events. Hope so.
Uris in Support was so helpful (it was a non-tech issue), that after I got it running, I quickly switched from monthly to annual plan, and stopped looking at competitors.
Review by Christian, March 26, 2012
Service has gone down hill. Probably a victim of their own success. Streaming tv is terrible. This bird has flown.
Review by Edward, January 7, 2012
Many servers to choose from and quick response to my emails. I haven’t had any serious issues and recently upgraded to the yeary plan, no point to look elsewhere, works as advertised.
Review by John, November 1, 2010
I Use VPN in a GCC country. I am writing this reveiw because Banana have been really excellent, especially the support. The usage instructions are easy and clear, but when I had a few technical problems their email service reply has always been really quick and specific to the exact question I asked (with specific solutions). Further, when I purchased a 2nd Banana account for my other computer they spotted I had done this, emailed me asking why, (I explained I had 2 PCs) and they refunded my money without me asking for it, and sent me additonal alternative ISP addresses etc to use. Wow.
So, all in all, I have had an excellent service from Banana, and their support tops it off wonderfully. I use many services from many providers for many differing things, and I rate Banana support service as the best I have ever had. John
Review by Hatari, October 28, 2010
Extremelly happy with the service and great customer support.
Review by Abrhim, September 7, 2010
I cannot believe who fast and stable the VPN service Banana offer, not only that they did provide with excellent support when I needed they give me access to multiple server around the world with the same account. I can tell you the speed and reliability is more than I ask, I can watch HDD from IBBC and fast browse the internet in the same time. Keep the good work Banana you are the best.
Review by Peter, June 16, 2010
Very easy to set up on my computers and mobile devices. Customer support via email is stellar. Sent several pre- and post-purchase customer support emails and got immediate, meaningful replies. So far operation is very reliable. Only one criticism: the website is not up to date on issues such as setup on most recent operating systems and devices.

great
Review by Ralph, April 9, 2010
After some problems getting my account on a USA VPN Bananas server, I ‘ve received at least my data after a lot of mails. The pptp connection via my macbook-pro is running only via IPSec it isn’t possible to realize. Before this account i had a German account and with that it was easy to connect via VPN-PPTP as well as VPN-L2TP over IPSec.
Greetzzzzzzzz

Review by Clive, April 8, 2010
Using UK Banana VPN, mostly from Singapore but also from Canada and other places. Works well on my MacBook Pro with L2TP built-in VPN software. Occasional drops of VPN if left doing a larger download, usually a 2nd attempt works fine. Quite satisfied.
Review by mohammadreza, April 4, 2010
very well service
Review by al sekers, March 25, 2010
Just installed in Spain. Installing on Mac OS X 10.6.2 Snow Leopard very easy, running in a rural region with a 2 Mbps connection, with wifi in the house. We are pretty stunned to be able to see BBC IPlayer full screen.
• Price is fair to generous if the service continues this good, we believe.
• Not had time to consider reliability yet
• speed of to find connections may be slower ( but once the DNS gets used to our preferences this may speed up
• Support that’s online looks fine. Haven’t had to try human support yet.
Overall, very happy and will recommend it
Review by anwar alshami, March 2, 2010

Review by Abdul, March 2, 2010
They help me use my flashed linksys router to dial vpn so i can use PS3 and pc at the same time! I was looking for solution for long time!
Review by DribblingDave, March 1, 2010
This is one of the more expensive options and it still doesn’t work for TV CatchUp and some other sites.
Review by Christoph, January 6, 2010
After having searched for a reliable VPN services I finally tried Banana VPN. And I have to admit that I am actually very, very impressed. Signup was easy, activation instant, setup super simple. But what was impressive the most is the speed. I am actually able to watch Skype HD Movies on my 42″ inch screen without any delays. I have never experienced that before. The only downside is that Banana VPN causes problems with our SMTP services. But I can live with that.
In short, Banana VPN can only be recommended !!!!!!!
Review by TheBlueSky, December 26, 2009
I’m using their service for 2 years or more now and I’m satisfied with their service. The only thing I didn’t like is the fact that they are using OpenDNS as their DNS server.
Review by Julie, December 10, 2009
we have enjoyed access to UK TV during our stay in Cyprus. It worked just as you said it would and was easy to set up. We will recommend you to our friends and guests who stay in our apartment.
Review by David J, September 11, 2009
The VPN service was great and made my stay in China far more bearable. I have recommended Banana to other foreigners living there.
Review by Katelyn, June 19, 2009
