Vastly inaccurate credit estimates

Post by jplanc »

My actual points granted are consistently significantly lower than the reported final credit estimates. For example, the most recent one estimated 1343 points at completion and the actual granted points were 216. Is there anything I can do to correct this, or is it normal?

Thanks for any help!

Do you have a passkey configured? No passkey or a passkey that no longer meets the 80% success rate will produce this.

No I don't, I'll give that a try. Thanks!

Also note that it will take 10 successful completions with a new passkey before bonus points are applied.
