Just to add here, pls feel free to contact Opera support also - or log a support ticket with them. I think the more users notifying them may at least let them know it's far from an isolated issue. Cheers

@leocg I do have a general VPN Pro support email address from Opera, however I think the proper channel is to log a support ticket first. Then at least this is logged in their database etc

@AsusS5606 I have a support email for Opera, but best to get a support ticket logged with them first imo. They do pick them up and respond usually within a working day

@martynhowarth I don't think this topic is about problems with VPN Pro

@leocg apologies if this is an incorrect thread - no one has stipulated which version, free or pro. I should have really asked the OP!

I received a reply from support:

The issue was already escalated to our Technical team for further investigation. We'll get back to you when we have an update.

@wishmylove Yes, this is the same message I received. May I ask, is the issue with standard VPN, or VPN Pro?

@martynhowarth mine is just the standard VPN.

@martynhowarth I have a 1-year Pro subscription, but it hasn’t been working for almost two weeks now.

@inputsignwave I'm wondering if this is a similar issue to the one with Pro. I have no issue running standard free VPN, but just need to quit the Pro app from the menu bar first and log out of my Opera account

Yep, I’m seeing the same issue on my Mac. Seems like a server-side problem, hopefully Opera rolls out a fix soon. In the meantime, anyone found a good temporary workaround?

@wishmylove exactly same here. I'm still waiting on response from Opera support but can keep you posted...

Hi all, VPN Pro now fully working on my Macbook. I haven't made any changes, except log off from Opera account, Quit VPN Pro - and then open the free standard VPN. Then, from here, logged back into Opera and opened up VPN Pro..
