I was using first their free proxy service (info somewhat hidden at http://www.tuvpn.com/faqs.php?ln=en ). It was working amazingly fast, the best free proxy I have ever tried. So I decided to give a try to the full vpn service and although speed is not as fast as the proxy for streaming (guess normal, I am using openvpn) I like the extra security it gives.
No issues so far and I like the fact that they add servers without increasing price (three days after joining Amsterdam was added).
Would definitely recommend.

Nice service and, even more importantly, superb support. Have had issues with their new high anonymity proxies configuration and they have been very patient with me and finally fixed the problem.

Have been up&running for one month now. Speed is fine although I have got used to the fact that providing security to your communications will inevitably slow them down (have tried several vpns…). What I like about tuvpn is the fact that
they have been adding servers and features without touching the price. Last one, squid proxies, I find it pretty useful when just wanting to watch some blocked tv shows … All in all by now I am happy with them. Would recommend.

Have been using it for a week to watch Hulu (OpenVPN to USA server) and protect my IPhone communications (PPTP to UK server). Both have been working great. I tried before a couple other options (that I can’t mention
) and streaming is far better with this people.

I have been using it for watching English TV and it has been working very nice. Speed of London server is very good and there has not been any downtime since I am using it. No experience with support because I have not need it. I use openVPN

Forgot to rate the service in my last review. Can’t fault the service at the moment.

I signed up with TUVPN yesterday and have been testing it. I have connected via OpenVPN. Everything has worked very smoothly.
It seems the initial bugs with Spanish language referred to in a previous review have been fixed. The sign up process went as smoothly as it could have done. Welcome, payment confirmation, and activation emails were all very clear. Set-up tutorials are nice and makes getting started quite quick if you follow the steps.
I have been mainly using the London vpn node. Speed is very good.
Googled TUVPN for comfort and found they were covered in a well known Spanish paper, Publico (www.publico.es). You can run the article thru google translate for english. Nice to know they are ’serious’.

I have been using TuVPN service for a couple of months now (I am Italian so can understand most of Spanish and was using it before English site).
Service has been great. I can just remember one night having issues with the Bucarest server and when wanted to ask about it I realised that they had already posted info in their server status page about the issue.
Using it mostly to download “stuff” and Zurich server offers very good speed to me (close to Milano where I live).
Was researching for a while before going with TuVPN and couldn’t find anyone offering PPTP and OpenVPN and different servers for this price (after 1st month I moved to 6moths-8€/month option).
Also support people where nice and helpful the few times I needed them. All in all, I would say a good bet and worth trying.

Just signed up. Have been testing UK and Switzerland nodes and speed is good as said by last reviewer.
There were small issues with navigation (language changing back to Spanish), but they seem to have already fixed. Opened a ticket about an issue I had with PPTP and answer reasonably fast.
Good tutorials and FAQs although Spanish tutorials are much more complete. Asked support too about this and Windows 7 and MAC tutorials are to be released next week (or so they said).
Very good offer with promo code, couldn’t find anything similar for this price.

@ tam
Update review.
I finally received the log on information in the English language, it seems they process accounts manually.
They provide good instructions on setting up the VPN connections.
I tested the USA and UK sever on my DSL 3MB connection
1. USA to Europe Speed average 1.71/ 2.18
Ping results 337ms/379 ms
Distance 3950mi
2. UK to Europe speed 2.84
Ping 88ms
The US is slow, UK good
Service poor they still haven’t replied to my issues,
Downtime none so far.

I decided to to give this provider a try I see it is new to your site.
**Ok there are HUGE problems with this provider.**
1. The provider is Spanish, Spain they have English translation for the site, the English service appears to be new.
2. Issues moving from different parts of the site, when moving around the site the language often defaults back to the Spanish language!
3. Placing the order from the English part of the site starts of good BUT once I reach the checkout page the order reverts to the SPANISH language!! the English translation is lost, this made it very difficult to confirm my order.
4. One I have fought my way thought he order process ALL the order conformation, log on detail’s and welcome emails are in the Spanish language ONLY there is no English translation.
I don’t recommend this provider at the time of writing, unless you speak Spanish
***Also you have the price wrong its 12 Euro, with a first time discount price 5 Euro using their discount code**
