Rescheduling and Cancelling
Candidates may either reschedule or cancel their test by going through the Pearson VUE site and managing their booking. Booking and rescheduling closes at midday on 2 October 2017.
Refund policy
Candidates may cancel or reschedule their test, without charge, up to one clear day before their scheduled test date. A clear day does not include the day of the reschedule or the day
of the test; for example for a test on a Friday, the last day to make any changes would be midnight on the preceding Wednesday. Where a candidate cancels their test within these deadlines they will receive a credit/debit card refund.
If the candidate cancels or reschedules later than this, the appointment will count as a ‘no-show’. In this case a candidate wishing
to reschedule their test would be required to pay a further fee for the rescheduled test. If you miss your test for any reason and have not rescheduled in time, you will have to book another test at your own expense. This applies in cases of illness, family emergency, accident, arrest, transport problems and security alert
as well as forgetfulness and lateness. It also applies to those who arrive at the test centre with inadequate or invalid identification.
