Has anyone been able to successfully create a new personal MS account today? When I try, it send the email code which is fine, but when I complete the challenge, either by audio or selecting the pictures, it says 'you're a human', the just goes back to the start of the challenge again. Tried in different browsers, and a private window.

I had this exact issue last night -all browsers (chrome, IE, Edge, Firefox, incognito in all as well)

 

the way I got around it was to use my mobile phone browser on the mobile network (not WIFI)

 

I am wondering if it picks up multiple accounts from the same IP address or something and has a fit.

 

Either way - firefox mobile via spark 4G was the only way I could get it to progress.

Thanks for the tip. Just tried with a VPN to Spark & Vodafone, same issue. Tried on phone (Skinny/Spark) with CHrome and account created normally. Weird issue.
