Thanks to Billy Tsai. I have reason to be concerned about this; here's why...
Just after an exam at my usual Prometric testing site, the manager and another employee engaged me in discussion about my good marks on the exams that they have noticed me taking recently (they can see the print out). That manager then asked for my resume, and asked if I would be interested in a job that a client of his company has. - Apparently his action was a result of merely seeing my certification marks.
My point is that if he had instead seen a grade of "Fail" on one of my exams, I'm sure he would not have been so enthusiastic about my potential services.

Thanks to Billy's warning about the false "failure" from the SCEA-part3, I will be able to explain that result to this manager in advance, before I take that exam in the near future.

Although, I still hate to have to explain that Prometric's report is false. You don't want to be associated with anything negative or tedious explanations when you are under the hiring microscope.
I
do feel that Prometric should fix this problem by, at least, marking the exam as "Taken" rather than Fail.

"Pass" would also be unacceptable for obvious reasons. Perhaps if we start alerting the managers at Prometric sites, they will wake up.

Some people (not me) might even find a way to bring suit against Prometric over this matter.
