Took my nclex 08/15 and I was getting the "good" message until just a few hours ago. For what it's worth, Pearson vue is updating their website and it looks different. I'm not getting the good message anymore and it's allowing me to see the payment screen.
Any other recent test takers dealing with this? I've read a few people are and so I'm holding out that this is temporary.

I read another post about the update within the hour and sure enough, went on Pearson Vue and I too was directed to the CC screen. I also took my test on the 15th and have been checking daily receiving the "good pop up" until I read of the update and just checked please keep us updated about your results. This is so nerve wrecking ?

I also noticed this change, I tested yesterday and was getting the good pop up from yesterday and earlier today, until tonight I went to the website and noticed it was different and it took me all the way to CC screen too. I am nervous

I also took the NCLEX yesterday (8/23) received the good pop up hourly from 10am Central to 4:30pm Central, and once maintenance was completed on the Pearson site, began receiving the "bad" pop-up which directed me to the CC payment. It appears that the interface of the Pearson site changed to direct traffic to the NCSBN site: this was confirmed by some of my nursing school friends who have not yet taken the exam. Other individuals in my program indicated they were experiencing the same thing (received 'good' pop up all day on 8/23, after site maintenance received 'bad' pop-up). My exam shut off at 75 questions, and two other students' from my program did as well. It would be a horrible coincidence if all three of us (pretty good students, one is top notch) failed the NCLEX, since our program has a ~92% pass rate. I have a feeling this is Pearson's answer to students using the "trick" to avoid paying for the Quick Results, so now everyone has to wait for Quick Results or BON official post. I would be hesitant to try the "Go ahead and submit CC payment and see if it works/doesn't work" trick since Pearson won't refund your money if you pay and then actually have passed.

Has this been confirmed yet? Would be interesting to know, I took the NCLEX today and felt pretty good about it but got directed to the CC screen... Wish there was something solidified.

There is something solidified: wait 48 hours and pay for early results, if you're in a state where you can.
