I use IPVanish on Linux, Windows and Android - at the moment, I'm connected via Copenhagen but it will change server in about half an hour for me.
Currently hitting 104 Mbps download speed, 11.4 Mbps upload according to Speedtest.First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. But Gandhi never had to deal with HMRCComment

FWIW I use a Trustzone VPN on Linux. Seems to work. Can't say if it's better than any of the others.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

All devices Android and Linux setup with ExpressVPN and no issues and simple and quick to set up. A wee bit of a drop in speed to be expected given the distance to the nearest server but no different to connecting to a server on the East coast of the US if you want to do a Netflix thing or whatever.
Tested with streaming three videos simultaneously and no buffering as well as general browsing.
Not touting for ExpressVPN in any way but worth a look.Comment
