We have previously highlighted the importance of not losing your account number, encouraging it to be written down in a password manager or similar safe location.

For the sake of convenience account numbers have been visible when users logged into our website. This had led to there being potential concerns where a malicious observer could:

  • Use up all of a user’s connections
  • Delete a user’s devices

From the 3rd June 2024 you will no longer be able to see your account number after logging into our website.

    Perhaps your browsing habits are severely impacted by Mullvad being blocked, but that doesn’t seem to be the universal case. I’ve had the occasional hiccup with a few sites that block VPNs (Mullvad’s IPs), but “90%” is quite an exaggeration when compared to my personal experience.
