One thing to bear in mind is that you will take a bit of a battery hit using a VPN on your phone.
On the other hand, some mobile networks do block sites (I think you need to request the filter to be taken off or something). For instance 3 block the Private Internet Access site.
There may be a bit of a speed hit but you wouldn't notice unless you're constantly downloading large files.
The main thing I use it for (I use PIA too) is connecting to public wi-fi, I don't use that without being connected to a VPN.
You basically sign up on the website ($3 a month or whatever), they give you a username and password, you download the app, put in the username and password and off you go.
Also works on 5 devices at once so you can have it on phone, tablet, PC, etc
