weird microsoft second shot pricing

nearownkira

I need some help regarding microsoft second shot pricing.

I registered for 3 exam pack microsoft second shot.

this is what written on the receipt/statement:

EXAM PRICE:300MYR
TAX: 0MYR
Discount code :XXXXXXX
Discount amount:660MYR
Balance :960MYR

for 3 exam pack, i should get 15% discount, but I dunno how microsoft calcuate the discount.

If i did not use the second shot, for 3 exams , i only pay 300X 3=900.so the extra 60 is to pay for the second shot?

anyone here good in math can enlighten me.

You shouldn't have to pay extra for the second shot vouchers. The price should be 300*3, then apply the 15% discount. Are you buying these vouchers from Prometric or a reseller? Some resellers charge a fee.

Weird. I just booked my first exam from 2 exam pack (also 15% discount) and receipt looks like that:

Payment Details:
Exam Price/Currency: 50.00 USD
Discount (if any): 35.00 USD
VAT/GST/Sales Tax: 0.00
Date of Payment/Tax Point: 12 JUN 2011
Total Amount Paid/Currency: 85.00 USD

So for 2 exams with secondshots I paid 85 instead of 2x50=100 regular price. Everything comes right.

Are you sure that you didn't use voucher for 4 exams? In this case it would explain everything: 4x300=1200 and -20% discount equals to 960.
