Hi
We know, what you are feeling now due to a payment issue with Staff Selection Commission’, but in this article, you will get your answer about “ A payment has already been initiated for the same reference number. Your request cannot be processed ”.
This (SSC payment failure ) occurs when you try to pay your exam fees using the SBIePay payment gateway method.
Note: We are describing about this issue ( SSC payment failure 2021 ) because we had faced this before when we were trying to pay our exam fee of CHSL in December 2020. so you can fix it, sure.
How can you solve this issue?
Here is your solution to your payment issue ( A payment has already been initiated for the same reference number. Your request cannot be processed).
Step -1: First you need to log in your Staff Selection Commission’s account using your Username (Registration Number) and password.
Step-2: Now go to your dashboard and select the exam which you want to pay.
Step-3: Click on “payment“ link and select online mode .
Now you will see something like this here :



Step-4: In the net banking section, you will see SBI Bank Or Other banks as an option to pay your exam fees. You have to click on either of these. after this, you will see the interface like this below image :



Step-5: Now you have to click on the “Cancel Your Transaction” button, Now you have to refresh the SSC website and try to make a payment again.
Note : If your money has been deducted from the bank account, then you should wait for 48 hours to complete your transaction.
If you have followed the method mentioned by us correctly, then you can correct it, and you can pay for your SSC exam again. if you have any problem, then you must tell us in the comment section.
