I’m thinking of paying for Mullvad, but I don’t want to waste my money if I won’t be able to use it. My ISP blocks Tor (at least that is the conclusion I have come to - I can only connect via a bridge). Is there anything I can do to make sure I will be able to use Mullvad before I end up paying for it?

A month of Mullvad is $5. Even without a 30-day return policy (which, as others have pointed out, they have), it’s not exactly break the bank kind of experiment money.
Man that sounds like some nanny state shit. Wouldn’t the ISP want you want a VPN so it doesn’t have to worry about figuring out what you’re doing in case of demands from potentially illegal activities?
Not in the U.S., but my last ISP had a line in the contract that allowed them to sell my browsing info to advertisers.
They all do this haha
Mullvad has obfuscation settings that will make your VPN traffic look like regular video calls. This can be used to get around ISPs blocking access.
Mullvad has a 30-day money back guarantee.
Apart from that, some payment methods (like crypto) allow transmitting arbitrary amounts. At least, paying for years in advance works without issue. You could pay a few cents and try it out, but be mindful of fees.
They have a 30 day refund policy, assuming you don’t pay with cash.
