The proxy i bought from them did not…
The proxy i bought from them did not work at all and customer service name robert was such a stupid guy he did not offer me refund .
stay away !
Overall this service is both expensive and awful. The website is slow as hell, and its proxies are all complete garbage. The quality is extremely bad. I spent 6 dollars to try it—basically throwing money out the window. Guys, stay away.
Best Product for resonable Price
I have been using Data Center Proxies for the past 2 months for testing. It is the Best and I am delighted with it. The best thing is that 99% of proxies don't require Google Captcha, and they are fast and work well. Price is also reasonable, Customer service is invaluable and friendly
