Credit card registration, please help!

I registered online with pearsonvue to take the NLCEX, paid my $200. I used a relative's credit card in order to pay. They have a different address than I do and when I registered I had to use their address as my initial address for EVERYTHING because it would not let me not match the billing/shipping addresses. Now I'm afraid that my ATT will say their address and not my true one and that I will not be let in the testing center. I would call, by they are not in service until 7am tomorrow. Someone please talk me down off this ledge. :(

Pearson Vue only verifies that your name on the ATT matches that on the ID that you present.....AND...that your face is the one that's on the ID. I don't think they care who pays for your exam.

OK, so they don't care about where I live or don't live in this case? Because I don't want my ATT to say the address of the person whose card - because it forced me to make them one in the same when registering - it was and have my address with the BON and on my driver's license be different. I don't want them to think I'm not who I say I am.

Thanks!

In my past experience when I took the nclex i presented my ca i.d. with a different address on it for we just moved and it went fine their concern is mainly the name, initials, surname have to be exact when you filed your application and what is on the identification you will be presenting has to match.. for the payment, using credit card, i used hubby's credit card with the old address to accumulate miles and it was fine as well, as long as you paid for it that shouldnt be an issue. hope that eases your nerves good luck! and God bless! :)

Thank you both. And yes, that helps. Nursing is stressful from beginning to end and never stops!

People's addresses change all the time. If the card had been yours, they would have expected you to update the address on file.....they want to know where to send the bill. Lol! I just completed two exams with Pearson Vue in the last month for the BSN. I have moved twice in the last year and have not updated my drivers license yet. But all forms of payment have an updated address on it.....don't want anything to interfere with my shopping.:blink: I'll get around to it, though, probably when the cops insist.

one last annoying question. since they made me use the card holder's address all the way through and not my real one, won't that screw up receiving my ATT considering that my BON has a different address on file for me as well as my school? It just doesn't seem right.

This is not the issue. I have Chase Credit Card and my sister who is doing this course paid her fees through my credit card. My address is different and her address is different. But it is necessary to provide a exact and correct address of credit card holder while paying the amount.
