Delays and difficulty getting answers
Some reviewers describe trouble reaching the team and long waits for help.
A few reviewers report slow responses when trying to get assistance, including taking about two weeks to return a call. Others mention difficulty getting in touch, or not receiving a follow-up after leaving a message and sending an email. There are also accounts of waiting months for support while paperwork is re-requested, with frustration that the help did not arrive as expected.
