Exam- Invigilator issues - worse experience

Dear Milpark, I am writing to formally raise my concern regarding the difficulties I experienced during my Corporate Financial planning examination. At 09:50, the exam platform had not yet opened, which caused a delay in starting. The exam only became accessible at 10:05, resulting in a 15‑minute late start. This delay was also added to by the invigilator’s check‑in process, which required additional time. During this period, I contacted the support team by phone and email, but unfortunately, I received no effective assistance. Although I attempted the check‑in process, I was eventually disconnected. When I reported this issue, I was advised to refresh the page repeatedly. Despite following these instructions, the invigilator application continued to request a code, which I communicated to the agent. However, this concern was disregarded, and I was instructed to proceed without the application being connected or recording. This situation left me extremely stressed and anxious, as I was losing valuable exam time. My primary concern is whether my exam will be marked, given that it was written without the invigilator application recording. I spent approximately 30 minutes attempting to resolve these technical issues, including contacting the Invigilator App support team via WhatsApp, who then referred me back to Milpark support. I am deeply concerned that such issues occurred at a reputable institution, as they significantly disrupted my examination experience. I kindly request that this matter be investigated and resolved urgently to ensure fairness and clarity regarding the marking of my exam. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Reviewer Update
I am writing to formally raise my concern regarding the recent exam. Despite the full 45 minutes to an hour being exhausted due to technical issues with the system, my exam was still marked. I had explained the difficulties I experienced, yet the result has been recorded as a failure, and I am now being asked to re-register and redo the entire module.I respectfully ask you to consider whether this seems fair. If you were in my position, having been let down by technical problems beyond your control, would it feel reasonable to bear the full blame? Repeating the module would also require additional payment, which is a significant burden given the current economic climate.It is important to note that the system introduced recently has caused numerous technical challenges, and these concerns have been raised multiple times without resolution. I believe this situation warrants a fair reconsideration of my case. A supplementary exam.I kindly request that you review this matter and provide a solution that acknowledges the circumstance.
