Calling this a "forum" is generous, since regular members aren’t even allowed to participate in discussions or create posts.
The owner is tedious to deal with, communication is unpleasant, and bans seem to come much easier than actual discussion as other have reported.
Best part: after two years, I was banned with another 18 months left on my paid subscription, lost access to the service without being shown a single piece of evidence of misconduct, and was denied a refund for the unused period.
Apparently the educational lesson is that paying does not necessarily mean receiving the service you paid for.

Got banned in 3 days after buying 2 year membership
Got banned in 3 days after buying the 2 year quantum tier membership for infringing on copyright policy?!?! It said that it tracked me utilizing Google Docs while the site was open. Like yeah, people take notes of what they learn so they can retain the information (mind you they don’t tell you HOW they know or WHAT they even are accusing you of specifically). I then emailed them explaining my innocence and for further information, and haven’t gotten a response in 3 days other than a cease and desist letter from their “attorney”. As a matter of fact even one of THEIR OWN CREATORS (IceW0lf) was helping me learn and referred me to GH, so I told him about the situation and he reached out to GH and their owner, to absolutely no response. Very disappointing from the site as it had initially seemed like a great resource and I was learning valuable information chronologically. Shame on GH. If $128 is really that important to you, you need to change your values. It is being actively disputed for a chargeback by my bank regardless.

Bought for two years got banned after…
Bought for two years got banned after two months... Got a message/warning about copyright infringement for making notes into WORD. Okay cool, I wont copy paste / make notes while learning but seems my two year membership account is now limited / does not work. Atleast when you say warning make it a warning instead of instant ban...

Overpriced, Outdated and sub-standard quality
All Their stuff is very outdated, not up to any modern standards, not even close. This is definitely not worth the extortionate price that they are asking for a subscription. I did subscribe, twice, i did put in the effort to learn, and i did come out feeling disappointed and like they sold me stuff i could have learned for free on game hacking Academy or other entirely free places like unknowncheats. I do not recommend guidedhacking.

Banned for no reason - No communication
I had a subscription with GuidedHacking and used the site normally while it was active. After the subscription expired, I was no longer able to access content. I logged out and tried viewing publicly available material – shortly after, I was banned.
About 1–2 years later, I noticed that the ban seemed to have been lifted. I contacted support to ask if it was safe to subscribe again, but received no response and got banned again.
It seems they already have enough paying customers. Treating the community like this is really disappointing. It’s about time they faced some real competition.
Edit 06/11/2025:
A few days after this review, the ban was lifted again. I then wanted to take out a 2-year subscription. I read in the terms and conditions (which, by the way, were only displayed after payment) that if you have been banned once, you will be banned again.
I then wrote to the support that I did not accept the terms and conditions and demanded a refund. I received the money immediately. It went without a hitch.
I am currently banned again on the website.

Avoid GuidedHacking!
Avoid GuidedHacking!
This guy persists on getting negative reviews taken down if possible (What the hell TrustPilot)?
My experience with GuidedHacking.com was a nightmare. The owner is a paranoid person who will do anything to silence criticism and protect his shady operation. I paid $70 for a subscription, only to be banned without any valid reason, i haven't been scraping the website, i trash talked on it on a server discord and then accuses me to leak the files, that wasn't my intention originally, he called for it , he doesn't have any respect toward his community or to manage a forum, if we can have a mature talk he knows how to contact me.
I downloaded 3 files then said something on a discord server that he was "monitoring" and he figured the newest member would have been me, and banned me for the trash talk, i wasn't posting or leaking a thing.
The owner constantly calls people "skids" and offers no real help to anyone genuinely trying to learn.
To make matters worse, most of the content on the site is actually public resources. The owner pays creators for exclusivity and manipulates them into keeping certain tools exclusive to GuidedHacking. It's just a money grab, and you’re better off contacting the creators directly to buy the tools from them if possible.
The owner also abuses cease and desist emails, accusing members of scraping and rehosting content when all they’ve done is use the site and download files. This is just a scare tactic to take down any negative feedback about GuidedHacking.
"Charge 7 dollar per month" Yet you force people to pay yearly
If you didn't force people to pay yearly to access the content maybe there wouldn't be such a high amount of negative rumors about GH, and if you ban, you should as well refund !

You were banned for distributing our copyrighted software on piracy websites, threatening to scrape our website, threatening to commit chargeback fraud and giving our copyrighted software to our competitors and defamation, all with the stated intent to cause financial damage to our business.
TrustPilot has deleted your review 4 times because you are a criminal.
Here are the screenshots showing that you are a cybercriminal and a liar.

Normal customers do not get banned from Guided Hacking.
Only petty cybercriminals who are addicted to committing petty acts of cybercrime against our business get banned, like you.

I started using this site a couple of…
I started using this site a couple of years ago, and even bought some kind of status to support the site.
I used it only for reading articles and watching lessons.
A few months later problems began.
I am from Abkhazia and one day I could no longer access it because they blocked access to the site from many countries, including mine. I tried to log in via VPN and continued to use the site for a while.
Then my account was blocked for using VPN. My username is "fmn". I think this is incorrect and would like to hear a response from the site owner.
03.09.2024 still no response from site owner in two months, my acc is blocked, and i can't use resourse that i paid for.
I think THEY ARE SCUMMERS, don't buy or pay them a dime, after a payment THEY BLOCK YOUR ACCOUNT.
04.09.2024 They trying to delete my review instead answer me, such a funny scummers, all the positive reviews here are bought, stay away from them.
UPD. When I paid you there was no information about VPN. I paid you for the service, you denied access to it from my network without VPN for no reason, that's your problem, not mine.
Maybe you can write in your agreement that it is forbidden to breathe air, otherwise you will be banned for it, what do you think of my idea, Rake megamind?
UPD. You banned my ISP and my network FOR NO REASON and because of this, I used a VPN for read forum that I paid for and there is nothing illegal about it to access. And you deprived me of this.
I didn't use the VPN for anything illegal, i just want read forum and tutorials that i paid for.
Instead of making an exception to solve that problem, make this review to positive, and allowing me to read the forum from under a VPN, since my ISP is blocked, you banned my account.
UPD. I don't understand what are you talking about.
I repeat for you again, mature man:
I didn't use VPN until you blocked my whole country or my ISP (i don't know), after that i trying to use VPN and you blocked my account.
I'm tried to use VPN (just to read forum that i paid for) after you blocked my whole country (or my main network) for NO REASON.
IF YOU HADN'T BLOCKED MY COUNTRY, I wouldn't have used a VPN. Why did you block my country?
Unblock me and i will delete that review.
Allow me access forum to read tutorials that i paid for, from VPN, because i can't access without VPN, my country is blocked by cloudflare.

You said:
"my account was blocked for using VPN"
Using VPNs violates our Terms of Service:
https://guidedhacking.com/help/terms/
You are admitting you violated the Terms of Service and even providing the reason why you were banned in this review.
You are admitting you were banned for violating the Terms of Service and you expect to be unbanned? I don't think so.
You agreed to our Terms of Service many times. We require all our customers to accept the ToS once per week, recurring. We are forced to do this because so many people like you are too immature to understand what Terms of Service are.
By forcing you to accept the ToS once per week, it removes the liability from us and puts it on you. You can't say "I didn't know I couldn't use a VPN" when our server logs show that you read and accepted the ToS 16 times.
But for people like you, it doesn't matter how many times we force you to read and agree to the ToS, you fundamentally don't believe that rules apply to you, and you will always violate them.
This is why we have a ZERO TOLERANCE policy, 10% of the community is just too immature to do business with us, and wasting time on them is exactly that, a waste of time. I could give you 500 warnings, you will violate the ToS the 501st time a few minutes later, because you fundamentally don't believe that rules apply to you.
it's not my fault people like you choose to violate the ToS.
"You banned my ISP and my network FOR NO REASON"
You were banned for using a VPN. You just used another VPN to write a 2nd fraudulent review on TrustPilot, which violates their Terms of Service as well.
You have shown repeatedly that you use VPNs to violate Terms of Service, thinking you can't be detected.
It's not my fault you believe a VPN can hide your identity and enable you to violate ToS without consequences.
This is the entire reason why we block VPNs, when immature people like you use a VPN, you can't control yourself because the VPN gives gives you a false sense of security, you are convinced that you're anonymous and can't be caught, which results in you committing crimes and breaking rules because you think you can't be detected.
How many more fake reviews are you going to leave using VPNs?
How many more ToS are you going to violate while using a VPN because you think you can't be detected?
You keep validating my point, that you were banned for violating our Terms of Service using a VPN.
Step 1: You agree to ToS
Step 2: You violate the ToS on purpose
Step 3: You admit you violated the ToS
Step 4: You say "I got banned for no reason"
????
40,000 of our customers have no problem using our website.
How is that possible?
Because they don't violate our Terms of Service.
Everyone who has been banned, was banned for violating our Terms of Service, including you.
