Don't think I've had an adblocker mess with the verification, but I often have to green-light a few things for cloudfare (or other verifier) in uMatrix.

uMatrix was awesome. It's a massive shame it didn't get any more updates, because it started breaking important sites (like bank authentication) for me just by the addon being enabled even if I turned it off from its own toggle, so I had to switch to NoScript, which is simply worse (far clunkier interface and consistently fails to show all domains).
