Go CCIE Go!! - A Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert

I just got an e-mail, as I’m sure many of you did, that says:
“Our records show that you have a lab scheduled 90 days or more from September 6, 2008. Please remit payment as soon as possible to secure your lab date. If payment is not received, your lab date will be canceled.”
I guess this answers the question about whether this new policy will apply to existing lab bookings — it does!
The odd thing is, my lab date is in the “..or more” category (January 15), so why the pressure to pay now? The threat to cancel, without specifying a due date, is a nice touch too.
Sigh.
cheers, Dale
