    So I wanted to add a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to improve my computer and iPhone security. I used their web page and entered the Citi credit card info:

    Transaction denied!

    Nothing like being a little paranoid and having that message show up right after entering the credit card. No 800 support number on the card but I was able to noodle it out of the credit card web page. Then the automated phone system "System unavailable" . . . wow, they hacked the phone answering system too!

    Long story short, I eventually reached a human and she told me they were down for maintenance. (... or did they hack the human too??) She didn't have an East European or Oriental accent.
