- So it has been 3 weeks. Responding to this other so called "ticket" produced no reply. Calling the provided phone number produced no results neither except a heavy foreign accentED girl telling me it is being handeled by another group.
oh, yeah I did get TWO email from this other so called ticket which said my problem has been resolved!! It even gave me a link to give my opinion on how the ticket was handled EXCEPT it noted that the link will only work if I am within Microsoft internal network!!!!!!!!!
I paid good money for these courses, now either I get a resolution this week or I will just post my question at every Microsoft site etc. with a copy of this thread and the two ridiculous email that I got from Microsoft telling me it is being handeled and resolved so everyone see. - Hi David:
I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you and your issue has not been resolved yet. I will follow up with the team internally and make sure that it being fixed asap.
Thanks you,
Farooq Jiwani.
