Replacement Edexcel GCSE Certs nightmare!!

Bobby_Bouche

Trying to get copy of GCSE certs for my son who has been offered a scholarship to a USA college.(My son never collected them as was out of the county june 2016 etc etc).

WJEC for which 80% of his GCSE's are withis a doddle. UK based and £35 gets us a cert will all his GCSE stuff.

Not so easy for Edexcel, seems to be an overseas call center and the websites a joke to do anything or get hold of anyone.
Ideally we need their "Certifying Statement of Results (CSoR)" but trying to order it is a joke. Been going around in circles for 2 days. Rang them and they kept asking for a book title?? Go figure.

So has anyone here been able to order a A Certifying Statement of Results (CSoR) or can help me.

I'm guessing you've already tried this one?......

Yes of course . I just need a A Certifying Statement of Results (CSoR), but no direct links to it. Websites a joke and they are like robots.

This link (https://qualifications.pearson.com/en/support/Services/certificate-services/terms-and-conditions.html) seems to indicate (under section 4) that if you apply for a replacement GCSE certificate they will, actually, supply you with the Certifying statement of results, not an actual certificate.

It talks about them but then also then indicates it will send GCSE cert but not original.
For example a GCSE cert is £47 but a "Certifying Statement of Results (CSoR)" is a one off fee.
They emailed me a reply but it's so generic it's no use. Basically points me to their website.

The 'GCSE cert but not original' is a CSoR... as far as I can see, that's your only option.

Thank you for taking time to reply. Still not sure if i have to just pay for one cert or as many as needed. CSoR for example would have all his GCSE on it, but does that mean if he had 4 GCSE's then i have to pay for 4 certs . Or is it one price for a CSoR with all GCSE? That's the part i do not get.
All other exam boards are far more clear.

Thanks to all for clarifying the GCSE stuff. Also to the Pearson rep who messaged me here to help.
Most grateful.

I used to work for Edexcel/Pearson, they were just as bad with their staff. I used to get memos and requests for things two years after leaving !!
