Yes, I almost check with them every day for any progress. Just today, one of the staff members helped escalate my case as urgent. While I’m not sure if this will speed up the process, this response felt more proactive compared to the previous ones. I understand that the customer support team cannot directly handle my case, but I do believe they are making their best efforts to assist me.
