I got the top up to 4000 points to on Friday, and the timing was good cause my membership ran out today. I couldn't see how to renew my membership with the points, but saw that auto-renew was enabled so I figured it would auto-renew the membership with the points. This morning I got an email stating I got charged $10 for the renewal.
I contacted Kobo through the chat, and within 30 seconds got through to someone. They were able to reverse that charge, which came from a gift card, and cancelled the VIP, then I was able to purchase the VIP using the points. It took about 15 minutes from start to finish, but now I have the membership using the points they gave. |

Is Kobo forcing anyone else to do the visual Captcha (cars, crosswalks, etc.) in order to sign into their account? Is there any way around it?

It's been doing that to me too. I gave up on one when it took me to the fourth screen. I would have given up on the third screen, but I thought this has to be the last because it would be ridiculous to make me do that many screens. But then it is Kobo we're talking about.

It has always occurred when I travel. In those cases I presume it's picking up on my IP address and deciding I might not be me. Unlike the previous poster, it doesn't do it multiple times in a row except on rare occasions. Never figured out what is different to cause that. |

I'll probably wait until I have enough points to get VIP. I wish you could use points for a discount -- like 2000 points for half off. Instead of all or nothing.
