Black Friday is nearly upon us, and retailers are pulling out all the stops to woo potential customers with tempting deals. One such deal that's turning heads is NordVPN's hefty 71 per cent discount just in time for the shopping extravaganza.

For those in the UK looking to boost their online privacy, NordVPN has significantly slashed the cost of its subscriptions. They're even throwing in an additional three months free on selected plans, maximizing value for money.

NordVPNs Black Friday offer drops the monthly cost to just £2.69 for its two-year plan, giving purchasers access to one of the top-rated high-speed VPNs available. The Daily Express awarded NordVPN top marks in a recent review for its user-friendly design across various platforms such as iOS, iPadOS, Android, Windows, and Fire TV, making it an excellent choice for those new to VPNs.]

The subscription comes packed with sought-after features like multi-hop connections, split-tunnelling, ad blocking, and an automatic kill switch safety feature that severs your device's internet connection if your VPN connection drops unexpectedly.

While aiming to protect users' data and devices, some users have highlighted potential hitches with the service. As expressed by a Truspilot reviewer: "Not sure exactly why it didn't work well as the tech support didn't pinpoint it."

Users may want to consider this feedback whilst shopping around. They added: "However, my suspicion is that "Kill Switch" kicks in too quickly when my internet has a slight disruption causing major connectivity issues. From that point it takes too long to reconnect."

Understanding VPNs and how they can save you money

Why do you need a VPN?(Image: (Image: Getty))

A VPN (virtual private network) is a service designed to safeguard your internet connection, blocking hackers and other websites from accessing your personal data. It's compatible with both your mobile device and home computer, providing protection regardless of your location.

Many Brits may be seeking ways to secure cheaper flights or access their favourite Netflix shows and other streaming content. When browsing for flights online, websites often hike prices for users who have demonstrated a keen interest in flights or holidays, following demand-based pricing models.

This is where a VPN comes into play. Simply activate NordVPN and it will conceal any information about previous visits when you search for your next journey.

The same principle applies when booking hotels or securing cheaper subscriptions on certain websites that adjust prices based on your geographical location. NordVPN isn't the only option available.

There's a wide array of alternative VPNs to consider, including ExpressVPN, which offers services similar to Nord's. It's also been recognised as one of the top VPN providers and has its own Black Friday sale, which you can explore here.
