The recaptcha has suddenly stopped working for me across several sites and even their own demo seems non-functioning:



Is there a service status page anywhere we can check?

My site has the same problem. A user alerted me an hour ago that she couldn't sign up. 
I can see the reCaptcha javascript is downloaded, recaptcha_en.js is also downloaded, and the recaptcha div and textarea are inserted in the page's DOM. But nothing is visible to the user. In one case, Chrome reported that requests to Google fonts made from recaptcha_en.js were aborted.

It appears to be broken in Safari 8, but working in Chrome.

Hi, 

Sorry for the late reply and bad experience that you had!

The rendering failure is due to an issue on the reCAPTCHA side, which should have been fixed last Friday morning. Would you please check whether it is still happening on your site?

Thanks!

Please let us know if you still see the error persistently. 

Thanks!

I know this is an old POST, but I just started seeing this same error today. We have moved our site to a new server box, but we are routing the requests through a firewall, so the domain did not change. The captcha control does show up and allow the questions to be asked. However, when I click "Verify", I get the "ReCAPTCHA service unavailable" error. I logged in and deleted my domain and readded it, but the keys produced were the same as they were. Any suggestions?
