A few days back my wife received a letter asking her to for her 3rd FP on Dec 24th. Yesterday we received a letter from them saying that the Alexandria service center will be closed on 24th and to report there on Feb 4 at 12am. I was shocked too by reading 12am and realized that it would be a typo so I called the customer service center today for some fun.
They were puzzled too, I was moved between 3 service customer service personel as each one was not sure if there are some new timings in effect at the service center, they finally escalated the phone to a Tier 2 person who thinks for a while and says that she thinks it is a typo but to make sure you should write a letter to the customer service center askign them if they will be open at that time and also I should attach a self addressed and stamped envelope in my mail or they will not respond.
After 20 minutes on the phone with them and chuckling all the time I had to tell the CS thank you, put the phone down and started laughing loudly.
Man, these folks at the customer support center are so skrewed up.....even a bit of logic and common sence is beyond them I guess. Anyways, even in my wife's sorrow of waiting 26 months and no approval as yet, they sure made me laugh today and made my day.
Hope the year ahead brings good news to all 2001 filers still waiting for for 2002 filers too. Good luck, Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year.
