Hidden Costs Breakdown

Dedicated IP Add-On Costs

medium addon

NordVPN offers a dedicated IP option as an upsell, but users report it doesn't work reliably. One user experienced connection speeds under 10Mbps and long connection times after purchasing this add-on.

Everything was perfect until NordVPN tried to upsell me the dedicated IP option. I tried it. Didn't even work the first time: took a long time to connect and speed was under 10Mbps.

Early Auto-Renewal Charges

Multiple users report being auto-renewed significantly earlier than expected, with charges appearing weeks or months before the stated renewal date. This can catch users off guard with unexpected charges.
