Hi,

Please PM your DBC username to look into it.

Yes they are full of shit. I'm developing all kinds of software that uses captcha and selling it to clients and they ALL complain that DBC works like SHIT, STEALS their money, half of the times its not solved right, and also waiting time is HUGE.
And those slave holders from DBC always come with some bullshit excuse like they PMed me once "We've adjusted your solving rate and now it will work a lot better". Well, i'm so glad i'm paying more than 10k a month to decaptcher and not to DBC anymore. DBC my ass.

Hi dima054,

Would you please provide me with the usernames of such clients so I can check on their CAPTCHAs submissions?

If your software reports incorrectly solved images to our service, your clients are not billed for them. As for the solving times, current solving time is 11 seconds; so the waiting time should be around this.

If you're a user of DBC yourself, please also provide me with your username, as you should not be facing these issues either.

Best Regards,
 
No, because YOU BAN ACCOUNTS WITH MONEY!!!! right after people report the incorrect captchas.

99% of all of our system bans are temporary bans. These suspensions are a-) notified before and after to the customer b-) normally lifted when the customer contacts support.

Could you please PM me the account usernames of the customers you're claiming that were banned so I can check on them and trouble-shoot accordingly?

P.S: If your customers have contacted our regular support about their accounts, they can expect a reply within 24-48 working hours

DBC sucks, bought 5k solves for SEnuke and I can't even create a fkn Hotmail account!
 
I agree. Having major issues for many days now with Deathbycaptcha.

Either I get a 502 bad gateway error, or I get a solved catcha that is not even remotely close to what the submitted captcha is. My pet cat could probably do a better job at solving captchas. When I can actually create an Account, Deathbycaptcha takes 3 attempts at solving the captchas. So, I usually get charged 3 captchas per Account creation instead of 1. Wish I knew how to get Zennoposter to report incorrect Captchas.

Can't wait until I use up my remaining balance so that I can take my business elsewhere.
 
@MikeLac
Project maker, step captcha recognition=> edit=> more=> put compiliants url to variable (WrongCaptcha0). When captcha is not correctly solved use step go to page with url {-Variable.WrongCaptcha0-}

Thanks!

I'll give that a try.

At least 80% of the time, I get the following error: The remote server returned an error: (502) Bad Gateway.

Very frustrating trying to do anything with Deathbycaptcha!

Do I get charged for a Captcha solve whenever I get that error?

Because I have only created 8 Hotmail Accounts today and my Deathbycaptcha stats is showing 82 "Correctly" solved Captchas for today. I'm trying to figure that one out. I have $11 left in my balance. Want to use it up before dumping them completely. But is it worth the headache of putting up with their useless service through the next 8000 Captchas?

Hi Guys,

- Regarding our recent issues:

We were experiencing some connectivity problems that were affecting our workers recently (Yesterday morning and during Today's midnight, Eastern Time). This caused a severe image overflow and thus very high solving times and lots of rejections.

The problem has been fixed and the service is working fine again.

I sincerely apologize for the inconveniences.

P.S: Anyone who has been severely affected by this, please PM me. I'll check on your account, study your particular case and try to give you a compensation.

- Regarding our success rates:

Our success rates are calculated based on our users reports.

If you mark a CAPTCHA as incorrectly solved, you won't be billed for it it and it will be reflected on your performance statistics.

There are two ways to mark a CAPTCHA as incorrect:

A) Through your software. Your software MUST have a ''Report as incorrect'' feature.

B) Though our website, by clicking on ''Mark as incorrect result'' --> http://deathbycaptcha.eu/user/captchas (you have to be logged). There you can see all the CAPTCHA images that you're sending and the responses we're giving back to you within an hour.

- Regarding VAT charges:

You could contact Avangate.com Support in order to try to get rid of this charge (here).

Please note that we do not have anything to do with this charge, as it is a policy of our payment processor (which although is affiliate to us to process our payments, is a completely independent entity).

If you're not satisfied with Avangate.com, you could try ordering our Plimus.com, Liberty Reserve or WebMoney packages.

- Regarding CAPTCHA consumption:

Please note that we only decode and therefore charge you for the CAPTCHAs that you send us through your software/our website.

You should also consider that some sites just doesn't allow to bypass a form within the first CAPTCHA try, so it isn't always accurate to literally state ''1000 CAPTCHA credits = 1000 successful submissions''.

- Regarding our Human Solvers:

We're continuously educating our workers in order to deliver you guys the best possible results = )

Please note that even thou we're working hard to punish/eradicate their misbehaviors , they're after all humans and therefore they'll make some mistakes in occasions.


@JESSCON
That software was malfunctioning with our service because our API wasn't properly implemented into it. They fixed the issue by one of their updates, so I'd strongly recommend you to update it to the latest version.

If you please, you can PM me your DBC username and I'll credit your account with some testing credits, so that you don't have to take my word for it ;)

Best Regards,
James L.

pretty simple:Don't you get it people are having a problem with your service. I even have two deathbycaptha accounts. so better fix this as money burn fast.

Death By Captcha is OK in my experience, not the best quality service but hey you get what you pay for. They will automatically ban you if you incorrect submissions rate is too high or you mark legit CAPTCHAs as incorrect (as can happen because of bugs in your software!) but an email to support will fix the situation, they are very willing to work with software developers to get their service working for you as effectively as possible. Only useful for simple-ish CAPTCHAs though, anything that requires English comprehension you can expect a ~10% success rate - clearly their workers aren't getting paid great rates if they charge $1.39/1000 solves.
 
I've just been banned by deathbycaptcha for no apparent reason. I've been with them for like 6 months.

EDIT: And i know 100% that my bot only reports false captchas.

I'm pretty sure that if you report false captchas they'll ban you (which is hilarious because at least 20-35% of them fail).

Really? I've been reporting false captchas correctly for months. My report rate is also in line with their overall statistics of false captchas. I think it was about 90% success rate last time i looked at my account. Can't even access it now.

Hi,

We do have a chat support. You can find it on the ''Contact us'' section of our website (normally available from Monday-Friday 10 a.m - 4 p.m GMT-4).

@39ster
Please PM me your DBC username to check on your account.

@myownhero
We'll -temporarily- ban the account if we detect that many correct images are being marked as incorrectly solved. It's no a perfect system, of course, but it normally works like that. It is in our to-do list to optimize this as well.

Regards,
