I passed the IBM 287 mock test on Tuesday but have not received the voucher yet. Any body got the voucher for 287? Thanks.

There is no luck for me either :-(. I plan to take real 286 and 287 after the Tax day, if I can get vouchers, of course, (I took assement tests for 286 at 3am EST, April 2, and 287 at 5am EST, April 8).
I think 287 and 341 really cool, and while I really like them, but IBM seems not to be willing to issue me thier vouchers :-)
Take care.

IMHO, IBM has not completed the voucher distribution. They probably just started !
By the way, how many of us got your vouchers for
285, 286, 287, 340, 341 ?.
Letus make a list here !
I did all, got nothing

Still have received only 340.

I did 286 on 4/5 and got the voucher on 4/7. Then I passed the 287 on 4/8, have not received the voucher yet. Did any body receive more than one voucher in this "free test compaign"?

I already received voucher for 286 couple of days ago. I initially registered with my yahoo account on April 2 but never received any voucher.Then I tried with my hotmail account but no success. then I registered with my company account on April 4 and received the voucher.
I received the voucher for 287 today but haven't received any voucher for 285.
ALSO PL DON'T BEG FOR ANSWERS FOR TEST QUESTIONS, PREPARE YOURSELF AND PASS THE TEST !!!

I received voucher for 287 today.
There is nothing wrong with yahoo/hotmail. I have registered with my yahoo id and have got my vouchers all the time.
287 has couple of questions from 158, and 158 sample questions available on javaranch.
I think we have to study WAS 5.0 handbook(redbook) for 287. They have specified one more reference for EJB, but I could not find that red book on IBM site.
There is another good book, professional WAS 5.0 by IBM Websphere architects from wrox press.
Good luck to everyone who is preparing...
Keerti Pai.

Hey,
I did not get any thing.
Eventhough I passed much earlier surely within 100. I have the proof.
How can I knock the IBM door for justice.
Is it possible to approach legally?.
If so, I am gonna sue IBM.
