Hi tuggers

For the past few days I noticed that the captiva function has disappeared from the hgvclub.com page. I don't know if it's because I'm abroad right now or if it has disappeared for everyone?

Regards

I think the captcha function is currently disabled for everyone on the HGVC login portal. I haven't seen it in a few weeks.

I believe you have to call to book a "Captiva" function. <ducking>.

Probably because variants of the text based captcha didn't fool the advanced artificial intelligence anyway. It did help (and still does) decipher text from books.

Google's new recaptcha now only requires you to check a box. If it can't figure out if you are a human from the actions you take, only then will it present a captcha of some sort for you to solve (plus it's made it easier for humans and harder for robots by using pictures).

For about 6 weeks I haven't been able to log into myhiltonclub and it seemed to be a captcha problem. I rang and was told that it was a "server issue" :wall:.

I tried again today and it seems to be fine - without the captcha. I wonder whether they disabled it due to the problems it was causing?
