NordVPN experienced a service disruption in January 2025, but no court-approved outage settlement is open for claims.

NordVPN Outage and Lawsuit Status Update

Current Status

There is no public class settlement or claim process compensating users for the January 2025 outage. Separately, NordVPN has agreed to settle the consolidated auto-renewal class action in New York federal court; that settlement has not yet been filed for approval and is covered on our NordVPN auto-renewal lawsuit page. No court-approved class notice or claims program applies to the outage.

Claim DeadlineNone
Separate LitigationAuto-renewal settlement pending approval

What Happened?

Users reported login or connection problems during the January 2025 disruption. A service incident by itself does not create a settlement or an automatic right to compensation.

Are There Other NordVPN Lawsuits?

Separate complaints allege deceptive auto-renewal, billing, or cancellation practices. Those cases were consolidated in the Southern District of New York as Zeichner v. NordVPN S.A. et al., No. 1:25-cv-02571-ER, and the parties have agreed to settle; the terms are not public yet and the settlement does not admit wrongdoing. That case is distinct from the outage described on this page.

Can Users File a Claim?

No outage settlement claim is available. If a separate proposed case later receives court approval, its official notice would identify the covered conduct, class definition, benefits, and deadline.
