So DeathByCaptcha is now crap since 1/3 of the time they are charging 33% more for each captcha. Basically from 1pm-9pm they are charging 33% more for some b*llshit, made-up reason - yeah, I said it. They said it's to add more "support" for those times... but let's face it... it's BS. I KNOW... I've worked in IT for 20 years. The midnight helpdesk people are usually people with less experience trying to gain experience. They generally don't get paid anymore that the daytime workers and their job is usually much easier because, despite the fact that it's night - there is still ALOT less traffic than daytime.
I didn't realize this until I say my balance at 0 and I couldn't believe it... then went to order moreand BOOM... there's there lies plastered on the order screen. That's for the heads up guys... I appreciate you stealing my money!
So now, instead of $13.80 for 10K captcha's... it's $18.49 ... I think at that price they are overpriced.
So what's a good replacement?
Use captcha sniper and after use de-captcher.com it's costly but success rate is more then 90 to 95 % deatchbycaptch success rate is 40 to 50 % you are right crappy service
Thanks... that's one of the services I was looking at. One thing that erks me about DeathByCaptcha is their fail rate... combine that with a 33% additional cost and now you're spending ALOT more than you should have!
I also just bought Captcha Sniper. Seems like a good way to cut down on expenses.

My Setup is also Captcha Sniper, and after that de-captcher.com.
Im up to 100$ a Month only with Captcha Cracking Shit !!
i use DBC, never had a problem with them solving captchas
I also use captcha sniper
and then, deathbycaptcha. A lot of solving errors but I'm almost running out of credit and thinking also about going elsewhere.
Will try de-captcher.com next time
i have a success of more than 95% with deathbycaptch, but yeah that price raise sucks...
If the reasons they gave are true (pay extra $ to nighshift workers) i think its reasonable, but i dont think they will pay more 33% to them...
I can imagine those poor guys solving captchas the entire day...
wow I have been having mad fail rates with death by capture if your getting %95 you are lucky or maybe I am just very unlucky
lately i only used it with senuke, so i dunno if with other type of software/captchas type is working well
