FREE time to compensate for the many downtimes is what Kelvin promised long time ago somewhere HERE in the forum that is what I expect else I would have filed a PP dispute long time ago. if his promise broken, then time for a payal dispute
You think he's going to just eat the cost for free spamvilla time for all of its members? Doubtful. That's out of pocket expenses for him. I don't think we will be hearing from him ever again.
long before the many recent downtimes, here below a few promises from Kelvin to compensate for downtimes, so far never received any of the free days or coupon
https://forum.gsa-online.de/discussion/5094/spamvilla-recaptcha-ocr-official-thread-help-and-updates/p19 October 12 "Hey guys want to update all of you both servers are up online , http api implementation is also done we are heavily stress testing final element which is load balancer and by tomorrow night it will be done and i hope it will get implement in GSA and other software's fast as well schedule emails will be send regarding new api to all client along with there coupon codes or process to get a free week credit to there accounts"
I took Spamvilla out of my CB settings becuase it was just slowing shit down going through retires and waiting on Spamvilla just to not get answered.
Once I did this, I realized CB does a great job hitting Recaptcha as well on a first pass all by itself and the ones it can not answer it sends to MegaOCR.
There is no reason to even have worthless Spamvilla now really.
I just ordered this 2 days ago, I haven't read the forums here in about a week, wish I would of seen this first, that was my capatcha budget for the month m so pissed!!!
thanks to your post about CB solving recaptcha, I just updated my CB and removed spamvilla to test CB results. before I was (may be like others) so fixed on spamvilla having to solve that I forgot to test built-in CB solutions.
may be most people here have never tried CB-recaptcha because of the settings sending all to SV
how approximately is your % of CB solving recaptcha ???
1) ALL comments are due to spamvilla's POOR user experience
2) It was unprofessional right from the start. From up/downtime over to customer service.
3) This is business, not personal. Open your eyes, nobody gives a dime about who died, what happened, where somebody is located. You pay, you expect a service to work. As simple as that. Situation might be tough for him, but it's absolutely nothing to do with the service running or not. If he's out of time, has to go through a difficult personal time, HIRE someone to manage your shit.
Sad but true, nowadays absolutely nobody cares if a provider is facing personal shit. Do you really think a legit company would handle it the same way? Don't think so...
dispute opened and more then happy with megaocr. I've been with spamvilla since the beginning but enough is enough. Down for days, no customer support. I run my own service here and I've been down for a weekend so I know how it goes. However, I also sent out customer support emails during that 3 days of being down and bent over backwards to please everyone I could. Spamvilla has been down A LOT before his mother passed on. Enough is enough though, had he hired a support staff and gave us a least a update, versus ignoring us, I wouldn't be canceling.
dispute opened and but megaocr is not really better, bad support/service, only closed source software, windows only and not 100% online but better than spamvilla.
Any alternative?
guys try the CB built in recaptcha solving just remember to also toggle the CB > other > recaptcha captcha type when disabling spamvilla on CB
here running CB to solve recaptcha since about 14 hrs and it looks amazingly good in results considering the zero downtime of CB, the endresult in % may be comparable to SV minus the downtimes
Arhhh, you guys are luckier than me, I just bought Recaptcha OCR SpamVilla few days ago, and till now I didn't get ANY REPLY on the setup, I'm like donating to them, shiiittt.
dispute solved = full refund for current period received

spamvilla was my worst quality experience in all life while working/traveling some 40 countries during past many decades (mostly disaster or war countries or remotest provincial locations
Hmm Gsa CB updated for spamvilla service but its not working for 3-4 days - epic. It was online for only 1-2 hours, 20 hours ago and its down since then, after the GSA CB updated. (can I now think spamvilla went online for 30 minutes so @Sven can test captcha breaker to fix it and after update rolled out, spamvilla service also went out) 2.32 - fix: problem with spamvilla-recaptcha not accepting png as filetype
this is what kelvin wrote yesterday in bhw.. "

I am cancelling my spamvilla account with some regret, it is quite powerful, but give me a break.. 50% uptime and no response to my ticket after.... 5 days now? That is just not acceptable.
1) I'm not sure if my captcha breaker is reading correctly, but I seem to be getting over 50% success rate wit captcha breaker alone. That's quite a good rate. Maybe I won't need Spamvilla.
2) Why hasn't Kelvin responded here if he's responded in BHW? If he's back, how come Spamvilla still isn't working?

Kelvin - I'll buy Spamvilla if you're interested in selling.
It was online for only 1-2 hours, 20 hours ago and its down since then, after the GSA CB updated. (can I now think spamvilla went online for 30 minutes so @Sven can test captcha breaker to fix it and after update rolled out, spamvilla service also went out)
