I'd be surprised if the Prometric site will let you use the free exam voucher code and the second shot voucher code at the same time... worth a try though! -- Chris M.

If you log back in to the site you should be able to see your 'Record of Achievement' at the bottom of the page. This should contain your voucher codes (if you won anything). With the speed of the take up so far I would expect you had won at least a free 70-680 exam?

I never thought about that. The only date available, at my preferred centre, for me to take the exam was for next week which is too soon. So could not put it to the test. I think I will email ProMetric to see if it is possible.
