Speed Test

Usenetnews Speed Test

There are no restrictions or limits with the speed of your server. The only hindrance is your computer’s internet speed.

Privacy

UsenetNews promises not to store any of your data from the time you subscribe to their plan. They claim that all their servers provide 100% safe and secure access. However, they have the right to modify these settings if found guilty of some guidelines and violation from terms of service of any of their products.

UsenetNews asserts to take fraud seriously. If you happen to experience your contact details used on this website, you can send a copy of the police report to them and they will refund the charges used from your credit cards.

Customer Service

UsenetNews provided Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) in which you can refer to the usual concerns without reaching the team. If it does not satisfy you, you can send your concerns through their email at support@usenetnews.net

Additional Products

There are no additional products offered by UsenetNews at the moment.

Summary

With its vision to become a Usenet marketplace, the UsenetNews ended up getting the best Usenet servers in the market while putting it together as one service to give the best client experience possible. They claim to offer the best solution to different and complicated packages other providers offer, but while the site provides an opportunity to maximize your connection from any servers, a retention of 1,500 days for basic package is outdated and not competitive compare to what they promise.
