I am fully aware of the support agent not being the one always being the one to work on the solution, however it should be their role to ensure the customer is always up-to-date on the current state. Even if this means that for 2 days you comment ?it’s still with product, but I will follow up with them this morning. For the time being, you may want to give this workaround a try…“ This also helps building trust.
