I am writing to formally request a review and reconsideration of my recent experience with the *** Phlebotomy exam on April 15, 2025, proctored by ***.Due to a technical issue during the exam, I was removed from the platform. The *** ******* then gave me the option to troubleshoot or reschedule. I chose to reschedule, not knowing that this would forfeit my exam fee, as the consequences were not explained at the time. I was overwhelmed and not aware that this choice would be irreversible.Despite my efforts to explain that I made this decision in good faith, *** support has denied my request without further discussion or support. I am now being asked to pay again for an exam I never got the chance to complete.I am respectfully asking for a one-time courtesy waiver or reschedule, as I believe this situation was mishandled and unfairly penalizes me for a miscommunication that occurred during an already stressful situation.I am willing to retest at a PSI testing center as recommended.Business Response

I checked in early for a proctored exam, passed all the technical tests, waited 30 min for the ******* to authorize me and let me in. I got on help chat, finally got in, then was booted off due to connection issues (not of my own, I have the fastest internet you can get). After 30 min if you dont check in youre considered late. Even though I sat there 45 min. They told me I had to reschedule and PAY again! I had another test today.. two days later.. SAME thing happened! I got on the phone with them.. basically they said I have to reschedule and PAY AGAIN. Do NOT schedule a proctored test. Especially if youre on a tight schedule. I wasted two hours of my life which I dont have time for. And money. Not sure where to go from here. I contacted the state board for my test to see if I can drive the 5 hours to go take it there. Because Id rather do that. Terrible company with horses*it customer **********************. Dont waste your time or money.. demand from your state boards that they endorse a different testing company.Business Response

I needed to take my national and state real estate exam through ***. This is the second time I have taken the test, but unlike the first time I took a proctored test online. The first time I took the test was at a testing center and they allowed me to use a scratch tablet for work and a calculator. The online proctored exam said a calculator and scratch notepad would be provided in the system. As I was taking the exam I noticed the calculator was not there and when I tried to get assistance I was told that they only knew little information regarding the test and if it did not show up when I was on a question that needed it, then I was not allowed to use one. Also, the notepad that was provided through the website did not work. It was just a blank white screen. I would like to know why I am allowed to use these in person but not online. The testing standards should be the same for both, or the differences clearly specified, especially when there are questions on the test that require a calculator or scratchpad for calculations. To the best of my memory there were at least five of these questions on the test and without a calculator or working scratchpad there was no other option but to guess at the correct answer. My ideal outcome for resolution would be a refund of the testing fee; however, being allowed to retake the exam at no additional cost would also be acceptable.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:I appreciate PSI taking the complaint seriously and looking into it further; however it is not resolved.

Thank you for your patience while we reviewed your concerns. We understand how frustrating this situation has been, especially with the technical difficulties you encountered during your exam.
After reviewing the details, we can confirm that the online tools, including the calculator and whiteboard, were available to you during the test. We also understand your frustration with the differences between in-person and online testing environments. Please note that the rules for online proctored exams are different, and only the digital calculator and whiteboard are allowed in this format.
We truly appreciate your feedback and understand the challenges you faced. However, based on our review, we are unable to offer a refund or free retake.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.Customer Answer

Complaint: 23203250
I am rejecting this response because: This is completely false! I notified the ******* during the test, they proceeded to bring in technical support and the technical support person did not help much. All they said was "if one does not come up on a question that is supposed to have one, then you cannot use one". I did not have a calculator for any question that needed one and it did not pop up like I was told it would by the technical assistant. When I took the test before, that was in person, I could use the calculator, notes sheet, and amortization table. Also, like I stated, the notes sheet provided through the online website was a completely blank white screen, I could not write or type on it. Lastly, I did not have an amortization sheet to complete the questions that needed me to figure out mortgage rates. Neither the ******* nor the tech person brought into my chat could help. A reputable company concerned about their reputation would make this right for the customer!Sincerely,

I was scheduled for testing twice with this company and no one showed up to ******* the exams. I took time out of work and was here 30 minutes early as requested and no one showed up. This company was very quick to deny my application and keep my application fee because of a typo but can not be bothered to show up to ******* the exams twice. I was also told twice that a supervisor of some sort would contact me and never received any responses.Business Response

Complaint: 23164494
I am rejecting this response because I wasted two days of my time without any notification from the company. I had to take the exam through this company because it was the only option available. Just because I was able to reschedule and take the exam does not excuse the fact that I missed two days of work due to their negligence.

We truly understand your frustration and apologize for the inconvenience caused by the missed proctoring and the impact it had on your time and work schedule. Upon reviewing your case, we see that *** did send an email about rescheduling due to staffing issues before your exam, but it seems that the email did not reach you. We understand that you missed two days of work, and we genuinely sympathize with how this affected you.
Unfortunately, PSI's policy does not allow for reimbursement for time missed or compensation for frustration caused by delays. We understand that this is not the resolution you were hoping for, and we truly regret the negative experience youve had.

I am rejecting this response because: addressing technical issues is great for future users, however I am requesting a refund of $59. The money I paid to take a test that I was not able to take due to being in the phone for 4 hours that day. I tried to log back in 3 seperate times. So is this really just my technical abilities in question? I think *** has the responsibility to make a test easy to get to on the site. Unless its pretty typical si you can charge 2 times for one test????? Imissed a days pay!!! I was really in a time crunch to get this license and that morning created more anxiety in an already stressful time. *** I am requesting my money back. Also, on test day when I clicked the link to drive to a test center it brought me to the wrong location.

While taking (NHA CCMA Exam) I have had five different disconnects and three different PSI Tech Support case numbers. PSI testing was the worst experence that I have ever had in my life. The proctors were rude and disruptive (not all), I had to request they leaving me alone on multiple occasions. I had at minimum five different room scans, six different *******, two proctors that were disruptive and which I had to request they please stop chating with me when not conducting offical proctoring actions.

I purchased the *********************************************** Bundle with 1000+ Sample Questions" for $99.95 ($109.25 total with sales tax) but only received access to the study materialsnot the practice tests included in the bundle.Since I only received and used the study pack (which is sold separately for $69.95 or $76.45 with tax), I am requesting a refund of $32.79 to cover the cost of the practice tests I never received.This refund request includes the applicable 9.3% WA sales tax on that portion.I never received an access code to the practice tests so I never redeemed it, I only received access code for the study questions, which I acknowledge I did redeem and I am not asking for a refund for that portion. I have screenshots as evidence that I did not receive access to the tests and have attempted to resolve this directly, but I have not received a satisfactory response. I would appreciate a resolution in the form of a partial refund. I have passed my exam, s access to the practice tests is no longer an acceptable solution to me. I have attached screen shots to show that the practice tests were still locked and never redeemed or used.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: I am requesting a refund due to not gaining access when the product would have been useful to me.

Complaint: 23112701I am rejecting this response because:
Ive contacted customer ********************** multiple times, but they continue to avoid addressing the core issue. I have repeatedly provided proof that I never received the access code for the practice tests. Each time, they respond by citing a policy that states I'm not eligible for a refund because I allegedly redeemed access to the combo study pack+practice tests.
However, the only materials I received were the basic study pack (as evidenced by emails and screen shots of the redemption email) not the advertised study pack and practice test combo that I paid for. When I point this out and provide documentation to support it, the company stops responding altogether.
To me, this feels like a classic bait-and-switch. I paid for a complete product, received only part of it, and now the business is refusing to issue a refund for the portion of the product not received. I am being more than reasonable only asking for the refund for what I did not get, not the full amount paid. I would have loved to use the practice tests had I received them, but I had to take my test without them.This type of behavior is not just poor customer ********************** it feels intentionally misleading and predatory.
Please issue a refund as requested or escalate this to a party that can.

I took & passed every HiSET test but math in the state of *************. Before I could take the math HiSET, I had to move out of ************* to **********, a state that no longer provides HiSET testing. Despite this, New Jersey's *********************** publicly confirms they'll take HiSET scores from other states & combine them with GED scores taken in the state to issue a diploma. ****** has confirmed this to me privately as well. All that needs to happen is PSI, who runs the HiSET program, needs to release my scores to them. Despite calling ***'s customer ********************** number to try to accomplish this after passing my math GED, PSI is REFUSING to simply provide the ** DoE with these scores, thus directly preventing me from getting my diploma/HSE. The solution that PSI provided, which is downloading my scores myself & sending them to the ** DoE, is not acceptable as the ** DoE will not take them in that way.

On 3/13/2025 I was scheduled at 2pm to take the *** exam. I logged in at 150pm to start the verification process. This is the 4th exam I have taken with PSI using the same labtop and internet connection. I had to reinstall the software twice. It kicked me out for no known reason twice. The first time I made it to a ******* they said hello than stopped talking. I logged out. The second time I reached a ******* they said they could not read my ID. They had me hold up my ID for a full 5 minutes, no joke. Than the ******* said I would need to log out and take a snap shot with my cell phone. I followed that proctors directions. When I went to log back in the system said It was past the 30 minutes sign on time so I was counted absent. I obviously was not absent and their ******* logs prove it. Despite their ******* telling me to log out they are refusing to allow me to test again without paying.Business Response
