My currently client have (unfortunately) resorted to raising Sev 1's out of sheer frustration...A basic Sev 3 went unnoticed for weeks, even with a "please update" request each week. So they phoned and escalated...which got a "please provide an update" request from Oracle support to an engineer....then nothing. So then they phoned and raised to Sev 2 .... Nothing for two weeks. Then they phoned and *re-escalated*.....Nothing. Then phoned the local account manager in their city, who tried to push things along....Nothing.
So (and this is the third time this has happened), they've pushed the call up to Sev 1.
I feel for the client (paying squillions and getting diddly squat in terms of support), but also the front-facing support engineers who get dragged into faux Sev 1's because the Oracle support organisation is so obviously cracking at the seams...
Nobody wins here...
