    Hi all,

    I'm sick of thinking about football, so I thought I'd ask the experts on here (you guys) for recommendations for a VPN.

    I want something cheap, reliable, and secure.

    Main reason is for torrenting (legal software bundles), but possibly also to access secure sites (email, bank etc) when I'm on a foreign wifi connection (if that's possible to use on my phone as well as on my computer). I'm not particularly fussed about 'tricking' the system into thinking I'm abroad, though I might have a play with that.

    TIA

    Nord VPN 3 year deal. Works well. Can choose country you use so also useful when abroad to access iplayer etc.

    IP Vanish. Use it to watch foreign TV. Works very well.
