I am attempting to download this month’s free content, where the Challenge Captcha appears to not be functioning properly. I have attempted to complete the purchase several times, but it always come up with an error.

I have also noted a “network error” problem when using the Captcha.

I think I have identified the problem. Apparently, attempting to purchase all the month-long freebies, alongside the new permanently unlocked content, is creating the “bricked” Captcha issue. To resolve this, one must complete a separate order for the permanently unlocked content, where the Captcha does not appear…

Users should be wary of this for future monthly freebies.

Hello. Can you explain how to do this?

Something similar happened to me, but disabling Brave Shields allowed me to complete the captcha.

Seems impossible to complete a captcha. After a dozen of attempts I just gave up.

Epic people, that just doesn’t make sense. Come on and try to get something from your store yourself.

Exact same issue, nearly a year later…
