Hi people, I just wanted to share my experience with the NVC´s prime and top of the line customer service :angry: , we called on Jun 1st to find out about our documents(AOS/DS-230), the agents were CLEAR in letting us know that they received both packages on Jun 1st, we called yesterday and it came to our attention when we were speaking to a supervisor that the AOS is not in the system, that is located in Neverland(mailroom) and that they are waiting for it still, guys, we are so pissed at this people :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: , believe me, my wife is doing all the talking now, cause I can´t do it anymore, I don´t have any more patience, our papers were received in the mailroom on May 25th, they told me that they process mail when it comes in, so they are actually way behind their schedules, they can´t even go to the mailroom and look for it( how big is it, we don´t know), I am crossing my fingers so they get those forms this week, I am sooooo dissapointed. :angry: :angry:

Not sure if this applies to you. Sometimes the documents are being worked through the system. They just haven't shown up in the computers yet.

EX: if you don't put a cover page on something, it'll get worked through the system for roughly 3 weeks. And if you talk to an operator, they'll leave you believing they lost it, because they have no idea where it is and are unwilling to send a search party.

Some operators will just tell you they'll have a supervisor look into it.

Some operators will actually try and provide some help.

I had the bad one first who said he doesn't even see they received it in the mail and a supervisor will get back to me in 10-15 days. The first operator was lost in the sauce. The second one was very helpful and she was able to figure out what was going on just by asking me a few questions. She figured out I didn't attach a cover page and explained what's probably going on; turns out she was right on.

I remember reading at least one if not more cases where people got off the phone with an operator and had the impression they had lost their documents. Then a week or two later they get a CC or something like that. Given they acknowledge they've received the documents, I'm fairly sure it's just in processing somewhere.

Hey thanks for the information, we are trying to be patient, but the imcompetence is just amazing, they can´t even see if somebody has it, its a total joke, and as I said, its called Customer Service, at least you had somebody nice to explaing you the situation, I mean its difficult to get an agent that will help you, its frustrating :angry: :angry:

meant2b2009 dont be dissapointed, you are about to get your SIF. GOD be with you...

Thanks for your support, we are trying our best not to loose it. God bless :(
