RE: CCIE LAB drop issue

Ahmed, that's good news if they give you a grace period 14 days to finalise your payment, should your credit card be over the limit the time they debit the payment or if you have typed in the incorrect digits (being nervous n all). As for me I used my wifes card & I think I forgot to include her middle name as it appears in the card, hopefully this shouldnt be an issue.
Good info  thanks.
Jit

Actually, Cisco no longer applies that rule. You will be automatically
dropped if payment is not made after your due date. You can get a
grace period of up to 14 days or more before they finally drop you.
But they will not insist on being paid for an exam they know you're
not going to sit for. But if you had paid already and it's less than
90 days to your lab, then you have no choice. Whether you sit for the
exam or not, cisco will not give you your money back.
Cheers!
