Overview

  • VPNSecure's new owners, InfiniteQuant Ltd, canceled all dormant 'lifetime' subscriptions as of April 28, 2025, citing a 2023 asset-only acquisition that excluded prior liabilities.
  • The company claims the previous owners did not disclose thousands of lifetime deals sold through platforms like StackSocial, straining resources and support systems.
  • Affected users have been offered discounted subscription renewals until May 31, 2025, with pricing tiers ranging from $1.87 per month to $55 for three years.
  • Customers have posted extensive negative reviews on platforms like Trustpilot and Reddit, criticizing the abrupt cancellation and lack of advance notice.
  • Discrepancies over the timeline of lifetime deal sales, including a 2021 ZDNet ad, challenge the owners' claims that such offers ended in 2017.
