Have received the Qantas email about getting quadruple points until June 30 so thought I would change my earning preference.

However, the Captcha means I can't log on. I keep getting the pictures and have to choose which ones have a certain feature, e.g. ice cream or sushi or drinks or pizza/pasta.

No matter what I choose I cannot get them correct. :evil:

Any hints on how to bypass this so called security feature?
 
pick all the right pictures? ;)

(it's annoying I agree but I always see it as well)
 
I never get the captcha on the first go. The other day I had to resort to Sound and that was even worse!
 
I've found the picture ones fine. But best way around it is to change devices as the captcha is device specific. Some idevices only require you to recognise a 3 digit number.
 
Since I changed my password and the subsequent removal of pins I have not had to do a captcha at all.
 
It is now random, I believe. I log in regularly and have had 2 I think.

I must have been fortunate then, as I have been logging on regularly ( ... have had three stays in the last week with another 5 coming up ).
 
Get yourselves an iPhone folks, the fingerprint sign on is fabulous :D :mrgreen:

I don't have that! Don't tell me I need to update the Hilton app again. However, I don't get Captcha on the app at all and even via the site login via iPhone, they have made the text bigger so it can be read at least (albeit still not wonderful). I think changing browser also changes the Captcha modus operandi and I haven't needed to do it so often since the password change and pin deletion. Captcha in PNG was useless.....very frustrating as it kept coming up with an error message which I (perhaps incorrectly) put down to a timeout protection as the internet via satellite is slow. I also found the Hilton App for Windows 8.1, although nowhere near as good as the iPhone app, did eventually work also without Captcha, but it was incredibly slow and "clunky".

I do truly sympathise with those still having Captcha problems.....I feel your pain!
