I would give one star if it were possible. They show no concern for their clients' situations and make no effort to understand their perspectives. Their customer service is virtually nonexistent. There is no way to communicate back with program coordinators. The proctors' English proficiency is very limited, making them difficult to understand.

I had an extremely frustrating experience attempting to sit my Azure Fundamentals exam through Pearson VUE OnVue.
I completed the full 30-minute pre-check process as required, only for the proctor to flag my wireless headphones as unacceptable. I immediately switched to a wired headset to comply. Despite confirming on my end that the microphone was fully working, the proctor claimed they were unable to hear me — and rather than attempting to troubleshoot or escalate the issue, they simply hung up on me and forced me to reschedule.
No warning. No attempt to resolve the issue. Just disconnected.
This is completely unacceptable. I had taken time out of my day, completed all the required preparation steps, and was ready to sit my exam. Being abruptly disconnected by a proctor — with no explanation and no support — wasted my time and left me without any resolution.
Pearson VUE needs to hold its proctors to a higher standard of professionalism and customer service. Candidates should not be penalised and forced to reschedule due to technical issues that were not their fault, with zero support offered.
horrible, filthy testing center
I went to take my Real Estate sales test today; I was on time the workers were 13 minutes late the entire building was filthy I read the instructions about personal items and complied. When the man assessed me, he wanted me to remove my wedding ring, and my 14 K Cuban gold linked necklace my answer was no. They ask you to bring 2 forms of identification a debit card and picture ID they allow you to keep your ID, but they keep your debit card in a safe that you have no access to. This is a personal violation considering this is your money on your card that they have access to but you don't. While testing the young lady came in twice to spray air freshener, this interrupts your concentration and bothers your allergies there is no ventilation in the room she sprays and closes you up in a room that she's not in. This gave me a head ach and messed with my allergies it's been 2 hours since I tested and I still have a headache. It's unbelievable that you are there to be tested and they distract you from testing after you've paid for the service. For them to want to strip you of your wedding ring is crazy the expectation is for you to trust strangers with your valuable possessions.
Pearson VUE - Deceptive UI Design Results in Wrongful Exam Termination, No Refund
Pearson VUE is a publicly traded company that allegedly engages in intentionally misleading UI to force test retakes and increase profits.
Pearson Vue's testing platform contains a "Take a Break" button that does not initiate an approved break. This distinction is not made clear at the point of interaction.
Their pre-exam instructions explicitly state that test-takers may leave the webcam frame during an approved break. The platform's UI implies that clicking "Take a Break" constitutes requesting one. It does not.
I clicked this button during my SC-300 Microsoft certification exam. My proctor terminated the session. Pearson reviewed the case and denied a refund.
Whether this is negligent UI design or intentional friction that generates re-examination fees for a publicly traded company, the outcome is the same: test-takers pay twice for one exam. Proceed accordingly.
My exam session was terminated by the…
My exam session was terminated by the proctor without any prior warning. During the time of termination, I was only looking at the screen and did not access any prohibited materials. My hands were visible and resting near the screen, which may have been misinterpreted.
I was not given any opportunity to clarify or correct my behavior before the session was revoked.
I already request a review of the session recording and would like to request a retake, as I believe this was a misinterpretation.

I spent 55 minutes trying to book an exam over the phone (l was told to call this specific number). The customer service agent was clearly outside, as l could hear the wind blowing on the phone and bird chirping. I also heard her walk back inside. She gave me no confidence that she knew how to do her job, l had to repeat everything multiple times and the level of conversation english was incredibly low, which dragged the call out even further. They then put me on hold without telling me and just didnt pick up.
Awful service and giant waste of time
If you've ever thought, "You know what would make this stressful exam even better? Sitting in a waiting room for over an hour wondering if I'll actually get to take it," then Pearson VUE is the testing experience of your dreams.
I showed up on time. Like a fool, I assumed that having a scheduled appointment meant something. Apparently "scheduled" is more of a suggestion here. You show up on time, the exam will start... NEVER.
If you're looking for a testing center that respects your time, your preparation, and your sanity, I'd recommend literally anywhere else. But if you enjoy the thrill of not knowing whether you'll actually take the exam you paid good money for, Pearson VUE has you covered.
Avoid if you have alternatives
If you are a candidate and have another testing option, choose the other provider.
If you are a test sponsor, review your SLAs with Pearson VUE very carefully.
On 27 February 2026 I had an extremely negative experience at the London Southwark test centre while sitting for the 4‑hour PMP exam.
After completing Parts 1 and 2, the system took me straight to the end‑of‑exam screen without ever presenting Part 3.
What followed was a complete failure of process, accountability, and basic customer care:
* The proctor dismissed my concern instead of investigating it;
* The receptionist “raised a ticket” instead of looking for a solution/enabling me to complete the exam;
* Support verified my identity and confirmed a case had been opened instead of offering a solution.
* Throughout the entire process: zero empathy, zero agility, zero ownership.
Several days later, Pearson VUE confirmed there had been a “technical issue” — with no explanation, no transparency, and no meaningful remediation. The only way forward was for me to resit the exam, a few weeks later, at a significant opportunity cost as I had to reschedule prior commitments.
A technical issue caused by force majeure is understandable.
A technical issue that simply happens — with no safeguards, no recovery plan, and no accountability — is not acceptable.
Candidates deserve better. Test sponsors should demand better.
The most horrendous company
The most horrendous company. I took the AFOQT at a Pearson center and they give zero follow up how to actually access the exam.
Good luck trying to contact someone, the customer service reps are on the beach in phuqing Miami while my phone rings for infinity. The chat bot is also useless, I’ve tried 3 separate days and it said it was closed for holiday. There were no holidays those days.
Horrendous company, wish I could rate it lower.
Unsafe testing site
The testing site near me didn't have any appointments so I had to go to the America Business College in Chicago. I arrived to find it was a terribly unsafe area and I was afraid to get out of the car. I called their customer service people who were rude, hostile, impossible to understand and dedicated to reading from a script and giving me the run around.
Id give 0 if it was a option
Id give 0 if it was a option. I done my test and passed now to get the card I need a certificate which has not been sent. Ive gone through everything they sent to get the cscs and still its impossible to find. The way this is set up is ridiculous! Might aswell put it all in chinese.
Proctor are terrible and wield power worse than authoritarian
After being interrupted during a test for what turned out to be a non-issue, I was robbed of 15 minutes from the PMP exam. I pressed the Proctor as to why this was OK and allowable by the Proctor checking me, but not OK when I was focused and momentum was good. I demanded that they give me a retest at no charge and get their sh*t aligned on what is permittable and what's not. I escalated the issue but still do not have records or the history sent to me as requested. I think a class action law suit may be forthcoming with this organization. If anything, PMI will be hearing from me several times to demand corrective and preventative actions be implemented. In reality, they should just stop offering this as an at home option. I think organizations and Institutes need to be held accountable if they will nit hold their testing services accountable for clear Proctor driven problems.
Absolutely disgraceful experience with Pearson VUE.
My PMP exam was revoked before I had even started the test. I briefly stood up to use the restroom before the exam began, at a time when there was no clear warning that doing so would lead to revocation. When I returned, the proctor began asking questions in an aggressive and rude manner, and before I was even allowed to properly respond, my session was terminated.
What makes this even worse is the complete failure of customer support afterward. Pearson VUE sends one-sided automated responses, does not allow a proper reply, and offers a chat service that is practically useless when a candidate is facing a serious issue. After weeks of preparation, stress, and money invested in this certification, I was denied the opportunity to even begin the exam and then left without any fair resolution.
This is not just bad service. It is a shocking example of disrespect, poor judgment, and lack of accountability toward candidates. I sincerely hope PMI reviews this incident seriously and reconsiders maintaining any relationship with a provider that treats certification candidates this way.
No professional who has invested time, money, and effort into an important exam should be subjected to this level of incompetence and disregard.
While taking a exam at home using…
While taking a exam at home using pearsonvue, the Proctor terminated my test because of not looking directly into the camera. Might I say my room and electronics were verified and clean and clear. Whether I look left, right, up, or down the test question read right to left and down for answers. I feel the Proctor was also adding rules instead of following the rules. Forty question into my test out 70 I was terminated for nonsense!!!
Proctor approved headphones then different proctor revoked my exam — misconduct label without reviewing chat logs
PROCTOR APPROVED MY HEADPHONES THEN DIFFERENT PROCTOR REVOKED MY EXAM
I am a Cisco TAC Engineer. On March 29, 2026, I was taking my
Cisco 300-415 exam online through OnVUE. After the exam started,
there was loud construction noise from my neighbors. I messaged
the proctor through the session chat and asked if I could use
headphones. The proctor APPROVED my request.
A DIFFERENT proctor then revoked my exam on the FIRST question,
saying headphones were not allowed — even though the first
proctor approved them in the chat.
Pearson VUE then:
- Labeled it "Candidate error or misconduct"
- Gave me a "Fail" (I only answered 1 question — 0% in 5/6 sections)
- Closed my case TWICE without reviewing the session chat logs
- Refused to look at their own evidence
I contacted them 8 times through chat, sent multiple emails,
and escalated to Cisco directly. ALL I asked was for them to
review the session chat logs where the proctor approved my
headphones. They refused.
I had passed CCNP ENCOR the day before. Now I have a "misconduct"
label for following their own proctor's instructions. This has
affected my health and career.
Case #36568492. Avoid OnVUE online proctoring if possible —
go to a test center instead.
I am writing to express my deep…URGENT: VISA DEADLINE - INVALID VOUCHER - REG ID 530616745
I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with Pearson VUE’s support regarding my PTE Academic exam scheduling. Due to medical issues, which were duly proven by a medical certificate submitted on March 24th, 2026, the institution accepted my request and provided a voucher code for rescheduling. However, the code provided is returning an error and appears as invalid in the online booking system.
I have been in daily contact with support via phone, email, and forms since last Friday, yet I only receive generic two-business-day deadlines that expire without any resolution. I must emphasize that my situation is extremely urgent, as I have strict deadlines for visa documentation and international course enrollment. I need an immediate solution, as I must schedule the exam this week to avoid missing my international deadlines.
This technical failure with the voucher, combined with the support delay, is jeopardizing my entire international plan and the financial investments I have made. Therefore, I demand that Pearson provides a new valid voucher immediately or issues a full refund of the amount paid. My priority is a functional solution to ensure I do not miss my immigration and academic deadlines.

I had a very frustrating experience…
I had a very frustrating experience with Pearson VUE’s online proctoring service. I was denied the ability to take my exam because I was using a TV as my only display, even though there were no other monitors or electronics around. I reviewed the technical requirements multiple times beforehand and did not see any clear rule stating that a TV cannot be used as a single monitor.
Because of that, I paid for an online proctored exam, set aside my time, prepared my space, and was still rejected over a rule that was either unclear or not properly disclosed. If this setup is not allowed, that needs to be stated plainly before people spend money and time scheduling an exam.
What made the experience worse was the proctor’s behavior. When I asked what specific rule prohibited my setup, I got no real answer. The proctor then disconnected without explaining anything or even ending the conversation professionally.
Overall, the experience felt disorganized, poorly communicated, and disrespectful of my time. I would strongly caution others to verify every detail of their setup in advance, because the written requirements did not match how they were enforced in my case.
Useless
Test centres are fine and well run, the rest of the service is appalling, however they have a monopoly and the test I sat was mandatory, so I suspect that they don't care. This is definitely the impression they give. Failed to post my test results, so I rang them using the number on their website. After five minutes of automated waffle I was redirected to a phone number that hasn't been in use for almost four years.
terrible scam-like company
I paid some legit looking company online called 'Construction Certification.co.uk to book me a CITB test- the government authorised accreditation to work in the building industry. I wanted the next day as advertised and i selected the date and time accordingly. I then had an email several hours later from Pearson (which is a US based co with a terrible repuation) saying i'd been booked on a course at a different time next week, but the scam is that there is no way of contacting them. So you lose your money. You cant just hand out random dates and times when the website suggests you are choosing your date and time and then make it impossible to actually change it. This is in effect a scam and the CITB should be shutting it down.

This platform is the worst I have ever experienced, and there is no customer service what so ever. They just take your money, please beaware!
