i wont rant how you shouldnt say you have a lifetime certification and then change that but on the article note…maybe they were just curious to read it and were too cheap to buy the magazine? for fun you should just send them the first page that has your name on it but not the full thing 🙂
I agree in part about the change from life-time to points based. However I support the move in general. It’s about the only thing that EC-Council have done right since I’ve been certified. It’s just the way they handle it that makes so many people mad. I know a business can’t survive without revenue, but EC-Council seem to think that everything they do needs to make more money for themselves. The points system was just another thing to prompt their events, webinars and training.
EC-Council sent a reply to my email and said that you only have to provide proof on request. The email is, as history has shown, not an answer to the question. At least not a direct one. As the article isn’t on the shelves yet, I told them they can wait. When it’s out in circulation, I’ll just send them the ISBN-number or a link to the subscription site I think 😉 I don’t need to points that much anyway.
