I am booking my Advance Tax exam for September but only 9am slots appear to be available to me, anywhere across the nation.
I prefer the 1.30pm exam and my work colleague has managed to book his PerformanceManagment exam for the same day, same venue for 1.30pm so its not like there isn’t any spaces left…

I was wondering if anyone else was having this issue or if for the Advance papers you can only do a morning slot?

I have contacted ACCA they initially said there was no space but then when I pointed out that there was no afternoon slots anywhere in the country at all, they then said it was a system error and to try and rebook next week.
I have waited 2 weeks and still not available 🙁

Failed 49% !!! 🙁
Considering appealing the mitigating circumstances as it’s only 1 %, I spent a good 10-15minutes unsure if I was answering the correct question due to the error saying to use exhibit 5 when there was no exhibit 5 as it only went up to 4?!

Has anybody appealed?… Wondering if it is worth it or should I save my efforts and concentrate on the 2nd attempt?

Yes! I had this – really threw me.
As the question above it also said to use exhibits 2, 3 & 4 – but 4 was the email (related to the last exhibit 5 question) so think it was a typo – hope anyway!

I am planning on doing this for the December sitting too.

Please let me know how you got on and any tips

I sat Financial Management last Friday June 9th.
There was a server connection issue in the computer classroom just 18 minutes into the FM paper.
We were delayed by 2hr30mins+ roughly 16+ students just sat in the hot exam room, waiting and hoping we could resume. From 1.50pm to 4.10pm

I have used this exam feedback function and also applied under mitigating circumstances and have had an email response to say “ACCA are aware of this issue and they have added £20 credit to my account as a gesture of goodwill.” This is irrelevant to me as my employer pays for my tuition.

But I was wondering if a delay like this has happened to anyone else and what was the outcome?
