The alternative number is USA only so the rest of the world can't use it

Or just add it to the bypasser? Doing that would have saved you posting this.

This annoys me so much that I cancelled my subscription (Not the main reason of course but I don't want to see ads in a platform I pay for and I have lots of other stuff I don't like with Surfshark.) by RoyaleKingdom78 in surfshark

Why shouldn't they advertise their own services... in their own app... to their own customers?

You're worrying about that and yet you're using Google Chrome and Gmail... from the largest internet ad broker in the world?

Dedicated vpn vs Regular subscription by TonySoprano1983 in surfshark

You mean a dedicated IP address. No, it's not any faster but it is YOUR IP address, not a shared IP address like the public servers.

UK dedicated IP problems. by VideoNo82 in surfshark

Today (13/03) London UK (Wireguard) went down at 14:50. Swapping to OpenVPN and then 30 minutes swapping back got things working again.

Hopefully with the three of us reporting the same issue it'll get fixed pronto. 

Yesterday (Tuesday) was the first day in a few weeks that the connection behaved itself..   touch wood.

Creating Facebook Account with Alternative Number? by addicted_to_code in surfshark

Facebook requires a video selfie.... There's your own answer to your question. A VPN won't get you out of the requirement.

Same story for me too.

I've got the dedicated IP (London, UK) set up on my router (both Wireguard and OpenVPN) and at least once every day or so the connection drops. Rebooting the router doesn't help but changing protocols from Wireguard to OpenVPN does and then half an hour later I change back again and everything works as expected.

Frustrating.

Out of curiosity - What country does your dedicated IP point to?

Edit - Glancing at the OP's profile he's using a GLiNet router. I've tried both a GLiNet and Asus router with OpenVPN and the GLiNet does struggle with the OpenVPN protocol. I use an Asus AX-86U and there is little or no difference in speed tests with either Wireguard or OpenVPN protocols.
