Pearson Vue | Revoked Exam | Looking Offscreen | Request for Reschedule/Refund – Unfair Exam Cancellation

Hello,

 

I was taking my Microsoft certification exam and had already completed 35 questions when it was suddenly canceled.

 

The reason given was that I was "looking off-screen." However, I was seated under good lighting and was focused on the exam.

 

I did not receive any warning, and I strongly believe the cancellation was unfair.

 

I request a reschedule or a full refund. Please investigate this issue.

 

Thank you,

If you are an active ESI Learner, please contact our ESI Support Team directly, as they handle issues related to exam disruptions, rescheduling, and refunds especially when a concern involves exam proctoring or technical issues. They can coordinate with Pearson VUE to explore options such as rescheduling or issuing a refund. You can reach them using the contact information shared in the private message.

Additionally, we also value your feedback, particularly regarding your experience with the exam proctoring process. You can submit your feedback or report concerns through the Feedback and complaints | Pearson qualifications, which helps us improve the service for all candidates.

For future reference, please be aware that during exams, policies typically require candidates to keep mobile devices in the room but out of arm’s reach. If you need to access your device for any reason, you should alert the proctor and wait for their permission before reaching for it. For detailed guidelines, please review the Pearson VUE Online Testing Guide and About online exams with Pearson VUE | Microsoft Learn.
