Hey, tweety, what happened to your service request? Didn't they say you'd hear back in 30 days (i.e., by yesterday)?

But seriously, they never told me anything about 30 days - actually I doubt they ever did anything.....

Didn't they at least say you'd hear something back?

You have to wonder why they even have that 1-800 number. You'd get just as useful an answer by calling someone whose name you picked at random in the phone book.

Meh

Well they said they've sent a service request to Texas and I should hear from them in the mail.

But looking at the fact that my case file is still untouched, I doubt anyone even looked at it, or that a service request was sent at all.

This woman I had on the phone that day was extremely rude and not happy with me insisting on a service request. She also made sure that I couldn't note her name down (she told me she wouldn't have an employer ID) and she would say her last name unrecognizable and so fast that after the 10th attempt and me asking to repeat and spell I would give up.

I still get mad just thinking about the incident.... :ranting:

I just find out I was...

APPROVED!!!

On November 8, 2007, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service.

I don't think the letter I sent to my Senator had anything to do with it, since I never heard a thing from them. So I guess that means TSC finally went back to work!

Oh, and I guess that means I have to relinquish my crown and pass it onto the next in line... But I have a feeling the Losers will be no more soon! B) Good luck to you all, and

" Congratulations :thumbs: "

to me! :dancing:

YAY! Keep 'em coming!

Finally, TSC is working..must be something about needing extra cash for those post-Thanksgiving sales!

:devil:

What do you mean needing more cash? They've had my cash for 9 months now. Must be nice to be able to accept cash and not provide any kind of service for almost 12 months.

You send it to the senator of your state of residence. On the senator's website it usually states that they only help the people of "their" state.
