Bought Voucher thru VUE
I registered through VUE's website for the test. I know I should have found a deal, but I just needed to get it done. Do I just bring my receipt printout to the testing center?

I purchased my voucher from the link on this website for $215, which is pretty close to the actual cost of the exam. I could have tried looking around for a better deal, but I did that once before and bought a voucher off of eBay. It was a great deal, I bought the Net+ voucher for $157... It turned out to be invalid
So, I will never buy another voucher from eBay ever again. I did use PayPal, and disputed the charge, but it took me almost 2 months to get my money back. I think you are fine purchasing directly from VUE. I will only buy my vouchers from known legit sources from now on. Do not rely on others to follow you... Rely only on yourself to lead. -

I sent you a PM about this. I'm going through the same problem... -

Ouch. Yeah, I've heard of other folks getting bum vouchers off ebay. Your best bet is to get it either directly from the testing center or from a known/reputable purveyor of discount vouchers. But if you DO get a voucher from someone off ebay, make sure to check out their feedback & history...if there's none or if there's bad feedback or multiple reports of funked up vouchers, run for the hills!!I purchased my voucher from the link on this website for $215, which is pretty close to the actual cost of the exam.

Make sure one of your ID's has a signature on it. I almost missed my first exam because I didn't have one. I had to run out in to my car and find something and sign it real quick.. they were about to send me packing.Austin Community College, certificate of completion: C++ Programming.

And make sure that it isn't one of the interim ID's. I had one, now my Prometric history shows a "No Show", as my ID wasn't usable for the exam. That really got me steamed. I had a new license (moved to Oregon again), and got it like 2 days before. It was a paper temporary license until the plastic one came in the mail. They couldn't accept it because "it could be forged". I tell you what, I was never so pissed in my life. $125 and they said they couldn't do anything about it. I drove 160 miles to take it. That was a few years ago with the 70-210.
So, if you have any questions on what will work, CALL THEM!
