Reviews for Surfshark VPN Extension
Surfshark VPN Extension by Surfshark
Review by level6
Rated 5 out of 5
by level6, 2 years agoPaid for 26 months... got about 3 working months, so far. They've removed their "Live Chat" links it seems. Shame. I loved SurfShark. This extension has been trash about 75% of the time I've gone to use it, though, and I am NOT in the position for full VPN on this host. It MUST be by browser profile.
EDIT: I use multiple FF profiles on this machine to segregate everything for my online identities. I have found that this is happening in one FF profile, whlle "Firefox is being updated in another profile." When I switch to my main profile, it is waiting for "restart to update Firefox". Once I restart to complete the update, this extension begins working, again. I would suggest that everyone make sure your FF is not in mid-update.
You also must make sure to update this SurfShark extension in each profile separately (all extensions, really). And restart each profile.
Going from 1 to 5 stars.

- Rated 4 out of 5by charlie9462, 9 days agoI only wish that I didn't lose so much bandwidth when using ShurfShark. I love the security but it slows everything down by a considerable amount. I could go into Gbps or Mbps loss but I won't bother with that.

posted 8 days agoHey! It's normal to experience some speed reduction with a VPN due to encryption. To improve your speed, try connecting to a server closer to your location. If these steps don't help, our support team is ready to assist at support@surfshark.com. - Rated 5 out of 5by Leetle Fool, 9 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18921185, 10 days agoHorrible crap hardly works. Ever. Slow, unreliable, buggy. Look elsewhere for a VPN that actually works instead of wasting your time and money on this pile of crap.

posted 20 days agoHi there. While we offer a 7-day free trial, Surfshark is a paid service, and users are required to pay a subscription fee after the trial period ends. We’d be happy to help with any other questions you may have — get in touch with us at support@surfshark.com or via live chat on our website.- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17229915, 20 days agoI use this vpn on all my devices, desktop, laptop, tablet and phone. I have it as a browser extension on the windows machines. It works great and it is rare to have any glitches. This year (2025) they seem to have worked out the glitches in the Mozilla browser add on.
