Data Protection Team Response Time: No call after 9 days

Hi  Nathan,

I’m sorry for what happened to you, since it is a public community, to protect your privacy, I’ve masked the Case numbers you provided, please don’t mind this.

Before that, I’ve checked the case details on my side, I can understand that you currently need further assistance from the Data Protection Team but have not received any response for 9 days.

I have escalated this thread to relevant team, they may contact you as soon as possible.

Sorry for the inconvenience to your work again, we sincerely hope you can back to work as soon as possible.

Best Regards, 

Arck

Hi Arck,

Thank you for your reply and escalating this concern to the relevant team. 

I still have not been contacted although I hope to be contacted very soon. I would never have thought the issue I am experiencing would take anywhere near 9 days to resolve.

Kind regards

NathanM4

Hi Arck,

Can you please advise what is the current response time for the data protection team?

This is day 10 and I have still not received any calls or emails. 

This is devastating for our productivity and service to our clients. 

Kind regards

MS support does not appear to be up to the task.

Try shaming them on social media. They sometimes respond to public exposure ...

Social Media- Twitter - Make your Pain Public, maybe then MS will fix the problem – And they usually reply

Sorry, there is no good answer to that. If you, and all the others with this problem start tweeting it, making it more public, maybe then MS will finally be inspired to find the fix to the problem.

Microsoft has a number of dedicated teams that do this kind of support explicitly:

@WindowsSupport          https://twitter.com/windowssupport

@Office               https://twitter.com/office

In the emails about your tech support case should be a contact for a "supervisor" or "tech lead" (I don't remember the exact phrase) that you should try to reach out to and make it clear to them that this is unacceptable. Don't give an inch and be very insistent.

Sometimes (no guarantees) that will light a fire under them because the last thing the useless supervisors want is a bad feedback that can jeopardize their cushy job.
