Winston PrivacyReviews of winstonprivacy.com

Winston Privacy changed the way I view internet privacy. My mom referred them to me to check out, so I did. I was skeptical at first, but once I decided to take the leap of faith and try them out for myself, I became a firm believer. First of all, setup was extremely fast and easy. You don't any technical background to get yourself up and going with Winston. The instructions are very easy to understand. Second, the amount of features that are provided is mind-blowing. There are too many for me to even begin listing or talk about. The customization and control of your security & privacy is one of my favorite features. They put the control in your hands, not anyone else's. Third, the customer support is something to be rivaled. Speedy, friendly and efficient. I have had nothing but the best experience with Winston Privacy's support team. I will definitely remain a loyal customer and refer them to family and friends. I could go on and on about how amazing they are and have been, but people need to experience it for themselves. I hope this review encourages people to take the same leap I took. You won't be disappointed.

Skeptical to start with...but after getting multiple emails from my ISP about usage overages I decided to give it a go. Setup was a snap, followed the default installation and as I've become more comfortable and familiar with the device and capabilities I've been adding features. I use a corporate VPN for 9+hours a day and with few exceptions (adding one-off domains) Winston has worked extremely well.

I've been looking for an internet privacy solution for a while now and stumbled upon Winston and decided to give their system a try. The price for the unit itself and their monthly service is very reasonable when compared to other incomplete solutions that are currently in the market. The unit was very easy to install and I was surfing on their privacy mesh network in minutes. A few weeks into using Winston I came across an issue with Wix.com loading properly and when building websites within the Wix editor, the site kept timing out. I reached out to Winston's customer service and they were extremely helpful. They took the time to understand the issue I was having and helped troubleshoot everything until the website was working seamlessly again. So not only is this product amazing, they have incredible customer service who is quick to respond to any issue(s) you come across.

Winston customer service is top notch! Dan quickly resolved a issue I had with my first device! He quickly had a replacement sent out and resolved having things switch over to the new device! Highly recommend!!!

I saw a few ads for Winston Privacy and decided to give it a try. I purchased the hardware (came with a few months trial) and a year subscription. I connected everything but ran into a technical issue. Everything worked but was not connected to the mesh network (IP not hidden). Contacted tech support. They emailed me back pretty quick and I was able to get it figured out. I found out that Winston changed their deal and was giving the hardware for free. Without me asking for it, they refunded me the cost of the hardware. You don't see customer service like that very often. When I began using Winston, I had to whitelist a few things but it really is working great. I can see the other Winston systems that I am connected to. It really is hiding my IP address and IP geolocations shows that I am somewhere else. I like seeing the live view and how much it really is blocking. Until I got Winston I had no clue that Amazon was collecting information every other second and Google every 10 seconds. I can tell that it is blocking several ads. Web pages do load quicker due to not showing the extra ads. I am happy with Winston and recommend it.

I have been using Winston for the past 6 months. Winston is great and easy to use. Winston offers great privacy and protection. I encourage everyone to check out Winston Privacy!

Worked at first, then started to freeze internet access. Took awhile to identify not my modem, not my router, or my newish MESH network Unhooked it for 2-3 weeks, no problem. Reinstall, and within 2-3 days, internet access freezes until WINSTON is rebooted. Can't have this happen in middle of Zoom meetings, etc. Tried support, sent them my diagnostics file twice, did not hear back. Finally went to cancel my subscription so I won't get charged again, and crashing internet is one of the choices for canceling. !? Guess that's $200 down the toilet. Nice concept, didn't work for me. Count me educated.. See below for response from WinstonPrivacy, but it's not fully accurate. I sent diagnostics files twice, and asked for an update based on that information, and when I did not receive a response, I gave up. Too much hassle, not worth it. Second update, I did contact WinstonPrivacy at the email below, but as of now (4 days later), no response. They've closed all my tickets. FYI Last update, my email above was found in spam. I was contacted, offered a free year of service, or my $99 subscription fee refunded. I took the refund. Case closed. FYI.

It made a huge difference, no more annoying ads, my internet browsing is way faster, the parental settings works and my internet connection speed is not slowed down (like with other boxes), so far im really impressed with this little box. Plus the installation is a breeze just plug and play!
