    Wow i logged into e-business and i see the tick box for the finalists list and the S has changed to an M. I really hope ACCA aren’t trolling us and have set all finalists to this so nobody get a hint whether they had passed or not.

    I took P7 for the 3rd time and was pretty certain i’d failed so this is a pretty big shock.

    Do any finalists not see the tick box when they log into the e-business page?

    Log in to the ebusiness website by using your ACCA number and password. Then click on ‘Change Password’ and instead of changing your password, right click on any blank area of the website and click on ‘View Page Source’. IT will give you a lot of coding, etc. Click control+F and write ‘member’. This will take you to the section of the info regarding member. Check if it is S or M.

    Thanks… I am still afraid to accept the fact that this is 100% good news, but at least it lifted my mood and hopes 🙂

    I received email to prepare for June exams.
    But I don’t think that means anything at all!

    I don’t believe they would go that far….at least I hope not!! I also had access to another website though, and this area is only available to members… Honestly I dont know what to say 🙂 🙂

    I can’t see any of the things above on the ebusiness site or black and white background on first link.

    I am a finalist but I haven’t had my PER’s signed off yet. I doubt any of these theories are real though…Don’t think ACCA would be so sloppy in this day and age

    I have all my PERs signed off. Just waiting for a pass and then I can apply for membership. Maybe the M is for those who are membership ready…doesn’t mean those with S have failed!
    I think ACCA is smarter than us.
    Just thrilled though to find that mine is ‘M’

    Kolina307, what other website are you referring to which is available only to members?
    Please could you share the link?

    It was already shared here before….
    https://portal.accaglobal.com/portal/page/portal/ACCA_PORTAL_PAGES/ACCA_STUDENTS#

    It used to give me an error but as from this morning I managed to log in. Friends of mine you are not finalists are still getting an error. Only who is an affiliate can access it.

    The M doesn’t necessarily mean that you are a member and not affiliate. Friends of mine who are Affiliates are still marked as M.

    I also have not yet submitted my PER

    I love a good theory. But it is just that, a theory. We will only know for sure on Monday. I wish you the best of luck for monday.

    For my last two attempts at my final paper the page didn’t change. I feel like, the tick box is a good sign but we don’t know what ACCA have/are doing behind the scenes. They will know about this theory and may have already fixed it some how.

    I really wish they would get rid of all these bugs/potential hints cause i think it makes people worry for longer. I am now nervous about my results but previously i would only get nervous on the day they were released.

    Interesting theories now.
    If these are all the same theories used in previous years, then I doubt it means anything. Cod I was following closely the Dec 2017 results discussion and some people had errors with the link theory but did pass their exams when results were out.

    The one that’s intriguing to me is the e-business ‘S’ vs ‘M’
    Is this a new theory or is it one of the previous theories?

    Do you know how long it takes for ACCA to upload the results. I still getting the errors when I follow the link and I’m starting to panic.

    I have no idea.
    Did you try the second link which is the e-business one?
    Click it, login, click on change password, then instead of changing password, right click on any blank area and then select view page source.
    Then control-F and type member
    See what is next to member type if it’s ‘M’ or ‘S’
    I know for sure that the first link doesn’t work because in the last session, I was following discussions when results were out and lots of finalist had errors but eventually passed when results were out.

    I have follewed Septembers and Decembers results countdown threads. The ‘S’ vs ‘M’ is a new theory but it is probably linked with the tick box on the first page. The webpage will load differently when the membership type says ‘M’ to when it says ‘S’

    The link theory is a weird one and it was always hit and miss from what i remember. The more solid one is the e-business tick box. Previously if you’ve seen the tick box you have passed and if you couldn’t see it you hadn’t passed. But i want to emphasise that this may not be the case this sitting ACCA may have changed things.The tick boxes could all dissapear or some that aren’t showing now will show later on. It seems pretty early in the day for results to be uploaded to be honest.

    For the e-business link, click forgot passcode to generate a new passcode so that you can use it to login.
    That is what I did to access e-business.
    Then follow the steps above to see if member type is ‘M’ or ‘S’

    Interesting.
    Like someone else said, I would doubt ACCA will be so sloppy!
    I just wished they didn’t take 5 weeks to release results. It’s such a long wait for everyone and causes some kind of anxiety!
    Nonetheless, I hope the e-business ‘M’ vs ‘S’ theory is correct!

    Could it be the case that not all result updated yet and may take some time to appear for others?

    Yes i remember during the December results, results were being uploaded throughout the Thursday. It seems early in the day to see the tick box on e business anyway. I thought it started to appear around lunch time UK time.

    “January 15, 2018 at 12:27 am

    haibe

    Participant

    P1 70
    P3 65
    P7 58

    Now an Affiliate.

    For those who care to know, all the link and e business bulsheet didn’t work for me as they all pointed to me failing but here i am today, an affiliate.”

    So all this link stuff is a load of tosh

    For some of them its already showing, is this second link theory about ‘S’ & ‘M’ is new thing? if you were following previous exam threads did anyone passed despite showing S in link ?

    I mentioned this on the last page. The ‘S’ VS ‘M’ thing is new. But i think its only new due to people not trying to see it. Seeing the tick box has previously meant a pass. But as i keep mentioning ACCA may have changed things so the tick box may mean nothing now. We will only know for sure on Monday.

    Going off what has previously happened in the last few sittings i am pleased that I can see the tick box but i was certain that i had failed this exam so it is a bit strange.

    What is new is the link theory takes you to an ACCA page that resembles the usual student area where you book exams. It used to just show a grey screen i believe (link theory has very hit and miss though so should not be relied upon).

    and another one:

    “January 15, 2018 at 12:39 am

    mark1916

    Participant

    P5 – 57
    P7 – 57

    Finally qualified. Link Theory didn’t work for me and therefore would like to say it’s one large piece of bullsh*t! There were more theories flying about here earlier than there are on how earth was created!

    Well done to everyone who passed their exams, to those who didn’t sit back reassess and go at it again!”

    Think these link theories can be put to bed now
