    I found that failing on purpose a couple of times then doing it right worked.

    So pick two mountains press verify

    Wrong try again

    Two house numbers press verify

    Wrong try again

    Then get it right and it works.

    Well if yesterday was bad today is impossible. I have been trying the Bauer comps and the star/express comps and I just cannot get any of these captchas to work.

    They are now mainly click until all mountains or street numbers have gone. Waiting patiently for the new images to load but despite all being clicked it just won't accept.

    It was better on the iPad yesterday but not today.

    Complaint sent off but I don't hold any hope in this being looked at as Google appear to be faceless when it comes to issues.

    I made a complaint last year that my post code on google maps is completely incorrect and goes to an address a couple of miles away but they fail to resolve this.

    I agree they are really dreadful at the moment. :mad:

    Try opening the link in an incognito window by right clicking the link.
    It seems to work some of the time after a couple of screens.

    Oh my.... I thought it was just me ��
    I was clicking and clicking and clicking ... Then tried the Audio and it said i was being blocked or something or other. I sent an email etc.. like advised, then read this forum.
    It's soooo frustrating all the comps we are missing out on. ��

    It usually seems to reset itself after 24 hours or so but it's like that bit has broken. I'm getting it literally on every comp with a Captcha whereas the first several go through without needing one usually.

    I gave up in Chrome the night before last, but it did then only take a few attempts in IE.

    Not faced them yet today but about to start. Wish me luck LOL.

    Try turning off your form filling software and typing in your details manually it appears to be working for me "at present" :)

    maybe there are hidden fields that the form filling software are triggering?

    still have to jump through hoops but not as many as before i:e now i'm only getting 2-3 capture pages!

    The only way I can get it to work is to use incognito windows. Just got one through on second go :D

    Went back to normal window both on Ipad and laptop and just not working at all.

    That might just be coincidence as I don't change anything and the number it requires to be completed varies quite a bit by itself and not comp related I have had them where I am just entering a password to log.
