Logged into my account and redeemed the extra year. No issues.
Apparently there's an issue with claiming this through the app so it's best to try on browser.
On browser; sign in / register
a) Existing user: sign in(id.keepsolid.com)

How good! Cheers Wakrak. With the other deal posted the other day I'm almost extended out to the end of 2023!
How can I get this if I don't have an account?

This post has details about creating account and redeeming the voucher
@Wakrak: Don't you use NordVPN? (I believe I read that somewhere in the forum)
Yep but good to have alternative options. I had a KeepSolid account prior to jumping on a Nord 2 year plan.
Ahh gotcha. I'll give KeepSolid a go since you've used it before. Cheers!
On the mobile app it can only go StopRussianAggressio and it doesn't work
Yep that's why I recommend redeeming on browser.
Yep. Same for PC app for 21 character restriction in the redeem box.
Website version has Redeem code on top Right after you login.
Took me a while to find redeem button lol.
Nice find OP.
Always good to have another option, particularly when it's free for such a long period.
I don't use a VPN very often and currently have a lifetime sub to FastestVPN (which is anything but…hence why it was cheap!).
Link works fine that warwak posted to setup an account.
Tested with VPN on, 0.77 mbps download.
Turned it off, 55.4mbps
Am I doing something wrong?
same here, can barely get 1 Mbps on a 900 Mbps connection.
where are you tunneling through?
you got to remember your connection speed means little when you are running through another server in another country and limited by the thru put they have.
also your "extended trial" account is most likely speed limited as it's free.
Trial? You mean this 1 year free is a trial?
Left everything on default under the optimized option.
I get that, but no point using something that is dial up speed.
Servers indicated 30% load.
If it's free, it's either a hook to get you to pay later on, or worse - your data is the product. Reminds me of Hola VPN.
it's free, do you expect a full throttle service for nothing?
@Dan Baker: Where does it state that it is capped speeds?
Company - "Here, have a free car!"
Person - "Thanks!"
Person - "But I can only drive at 2kmph, I can't go faster.."
Company - "Yeah but its free"
Just did a speedtest, 57mbps download to the aus server
If it's a trusted media service I just download the series or movie in full HD and play on their media player bbc etc.
With the previous voucher from Keepsolid, this made my account to be active until 2024.
Awesome thanks. Extended out to October 2023 after the other recent deal.
Thank you very much! it works nicely I don't even need to put my credit card
Once you do this, please donate to Ukraine. If you believe in the free world, this is the war you want us all to win. If not, we will see solders at our borders one day. Let me know if you need to know best place to donate.
A few examples would be great if you have them
https://www.blue-yellow.lt/en/ these guys have been around for a long time, with them your money is in good hands. I donated via paypal via them.
If you have cryptocurrency:

There are also bank accounts for donations set up by the government in both Ukraine and Germany. Let me know if you need this.
Cheers Wakrak.
Damn this post is gold. Just Signed up, downloaded & sideload PeackcockTV on my Nvidia Sheild.
Can you explain what that is? What is the best way to use a VPN for?
For us Kiwi consumers, VPNs are typically used to bypass geo-restrictions for streaming content (e.g. BBC iPlayer, Netflix USA). But if you see the @Foodie post above it's too slow for streaming, although YMMV. Also note that many VPNs have their servers blacklisted by the streaming platforms.
I think @MyFriendAutism is talking about PeacockTV, a streaming app for NBCUniversal content.
VPN for data/ID security but at greatly reduced speeds. If you just want to watch overseas TV Australia, BBC etc… than go with the service DNS4ME. Only cost $57nz per year. No data/ID encryption but uses your full bandwidth, been a happy customer for 2yrs.
Sorry my 1st time to try this..
so can I activate this and watch netflix shows outside NZ?
What else can I use this for?
ha cking putine🤣
Paying for things like turkey netflix, or Pakistan youtube premium
Slava Ukraini!
Doesn't work for me
Must have expired?.
Redeem a Code
You have either entered an already used or wrong code.
Please check your code and try again.
Same here, not working for me either
I take that back, I got a email verification email this morning, (about 12 hours late), confirmed my account. Used the code and it worked.
Just created a new account to test the code. Working for me.
Your subscription period has prepaid until 2023-03-05 at 16:11
Looks like it’s working again now.
I tested around midnight and it wasn’t going and the HotUKDeals link showed expired too.
Maybe top much Cheapie demand!
+OzBargain and MyDealz 😃
Website was incredibly slow when I did the test.
this worknig for anyone as at 10 45 am ?
I did one this morning
Yep just successfully signed up and received 1 year free, no credit card needed
I bought a lifetime subscription with these guys for about NZ$25.00 about 2 years ago. Not too bad for the price and their customer service is not too shabby either.
Thank you so much!
Rate the profile name and picture.
how do I activiate the VPN?
Thanks. 31/01/24.
"You have either entered an already used or wrong code.

It doesnt go through and it doesnt say I have 1 year. Help
The app only caused problems for me. I turned on the kill switch, then closed it to get my normal IP back, assuming it would disable the kill switch. It didn't and I had no network connection. So I opened the app again to disable it. But the app now also had no internet connection to log back into the Keepsolid account. Without being logged in it could not connect to a VPN server and didn't show the settings to disable the kill switch. Only restarting my PC worked. At least I didn't pay anything for it.
Been a few reports of accounts being suspended (or the 1 year pass removed) because this code was only for Ukrainian folk. My bad if that happens to you. The OP over at HotUKDeals didn't mention that important detail.
this is a scam, data harvest. Works for a day then says expired. Downvote.
My sub has been expired :(
My one just expired and I asked them why.
Here’s the reply:
Thanks for contacting us.
We created this code to help Ukrainian people while the wartime, so it seems that your location is not Ukraine.
Unfortunately, we do not offer any free codes for other regions right now.
Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
Lol what a false advertisement.
ah right thanks I was wondering why mine expired
I haven't lost access to any Keepsolid services but I did try using them to sign up to Netflix through Turkey and Netflix kept throwing captchas at me and returning errors whenever I tried to redeem my gift card, whatismyipaddress.com showed the VPN was working and showed I was in Turkey but whatever I tried Netflix kept returning errors. Ended up using a free VPN for Chrome that had a Turkish server and it worked like a charm first time.
Nice discount code
