Neha I need this escalated to the next tier of support.

Paul Spoerry
ALL of my sites are down again… for the third day in a row. It's a disk space issue. It just began three days ago. I've done nothing different. This is my third chat requests… I've requested two tickets (only one was created) and nothing is resolved.
8:01:00 PM

8:02:13 PM
Neha N
I checked your issue with the senior admins the servers are down as the maintenance is going on and they are working on it to resolve it soon.
8:03:29 PM
Paul Spoerry
I don't see it listed on the service status page.
8:04:24 PM
Paul Spoerry
Shall I assume that after three days of outages I'll be credited to my account for the downtime?
8:05:23 PM
Neha N
If you click on the Cloud on app âdal1.cloud.asmallorange.com/maintenance.html from your client area, you will get a message for the server being down.
8:06:00 PM
Paul Spoerry
If you click on: http://status.asmallorange.com it's not listed.
8:06:19 PM
Paul Spoerry
So will I be credited for three days of downtime?
8:07:08 PM

8:43:43 PM
Neha N
Time frame depends on complexity and nature of the issue. We cannot provide or commit to an ETA unless we actually know values of all variables involved in this. However , since our senior admins are already aware of the issue and are working on it, it should be resolved at the earliest possible.
8:44:42 PM
Paul Spoerry
It's been three months. I'm asking for a an expected timeframe. Three more months or three days?
8:46:32 PM
Neha N
I can understand what you are going through, so I will request billing admins to give credits for the downtime you experienced, I will update the ticket notes again.
8:46:55 PM
Paul Spoerry
I'd like an ETA or an ETA on when someone will contact me via phone.
8:49:49 PM

9:32:50 PM
Neha N
Unfortunately, he is not available at the moment. I will pass the ticket to him and once he is available, he will take care of it.
9:33:23 PM
Paul Spoerry
Since I've been a long time customer, and you cannot provide when I was supposedly notified I could no longer speak to someone via voice call, I don't think that asking to be contacted is extraordinary do you?
9:33:34 PM
Paul Spoerry
No… I'd like to speak to someone now.
9:33:57 PM
Paul Spoerry
Please provide the LEGAL business name, address, and contact phone number.
9:34:06 PM

Paul Spoerry
Please provide an ETA.
9:35:57 PM
Paul Spoerry
Why can you not provide the LEGAL business name, address, and contact phone number?
9:36:03 PM
Neha N
Waiting on the chat does not help and I will not be able to provide the ETA.
9:36:42 PM
Neha N
I do not have the info right now and I need to get that info. Since, it is weekend, I will not be able to contact anyone at this moment.
9:36:44 PM

9:38:03 PM
Neha N
Chat reps does not have all the information.
9:38:45 PM
Paul Spoerry
I understand that and that's why I requested to speak with a supervisor.
9:39:14 PM
Neha N
Unfortunately, he is not available at this moment and I will not be able to provide the details at what time he will arrive.
9:42:21 PM
Paul Spoerry
So the legal position of ASO is that you cannot provide the LEGAL business name, address, and contact phone number, nor can you tell me when (this year) I can no longer talk to a supervisor, nor can you tell me when that was legally changed so that I can no longer talk to a supervisor, nor can you explain a 3 month old, unanswered support ticket, nor will you put me in touch with anyone who an answer the above?
9:43:45 PM
Paul Spoerry
I'm asking for clarification so that when I submit the above to the US Better Business Bureau (or the 3+ million people in my G+ groups) I know what ASO's official position is on this topic.
9:45:22 PM
Neha N
I have not mentioned that, I cannot provide the legal details. I have updated the ticket to provide those details.
9:46:31 PM
Neha N
You have to wait for the response from our ticket admins and you can reply to the ticket for any details.
9:46:40 PM
Paul Spoerry
Not mentioned what specifically?
9:48:00 PM
Neha N
I have not mentioned that we do not provide LEGAL business name and address. I have mentioned that, I do not have the info right now and I will update the ticket to get that details.
9:48:32 PM
Paul Spoerry
How can you NOT know the legal entity for which you work?
9:49:04 PM
Paul Spoerry
I've waited for 3 month on my oldest ticket? Is this the position of ASO support for this support chat and the 3 month old ticket?
9:49:36 PM
Paul Spoerry
Please provide the LEGAL business name, address, and contact phone number.
9:51:55 PM
Neha N
Those information will be with the legal team and I was not able to contact them at this moment.
9:52:12 PM
Neha N
There is nothing I can do much at this moment. You have to wait for their response.
9:52:33 PM
Paul Spoerry
I'd like to be contacted via phone then.
9:53:51 PM
Neha N
We have discontinued the phone support.
9:57:08 PM
Paul Spoerry
I was never notified. WHEN was that discontinued… please provide the timestamp so I can submit to the US Better Business Bureau as well as request a refund from that time. Again, I'd prefer to speak with a US supervisor at this time.
10:01:16 PM
Neha N

10:01:53 PM
Paul Spoerry
I'd like to be contacted now please.

Neha N

10:04:34 PM
Paul Spoerry
Then… at a minimum… provide the LEGAL business name, address, and contact phone number of ASO. I just spoke my attorney and he said you legally have to provide it.
10:06:48 PM
Neha N
If I have that information handy, I would have provided. I was not able to contact anyone at this moment to get that info. I have updated the ticket DOL-465-58074 to get those details and I will pass the ticket to someone when they are available.
10:08:02 PM
Paul Spoerry
If you cannot provide the LEGAL business name, address, and contact phone number then I require the ability to speak with a supervisor.
10:09:30 PM
Neha N
At this moment both are not possible.
10:09:49 PM
Neha N
You can contact us on week days, so that we may help you with that.
10:12:06 PM
Paul Spoerry
So you're saying nobody will help me now, or call me, but that I have to do work to contact support? That's fine IF you provide me a contact phone number.
10:13:38 PM
Neha N
Unfortunately, at this moment, I will not be able to help you or not able to provide any information.
10:13:47 PM
