Obviously, you can still take a page out of RobertH's book and continue to call DoS for case information.

 

Call 12026631225, when the first automated message begins, hit "1" to bypass it, and then hit "0" to speak with a telephone representative.

This will hopefully eliminate a source of confusion , and also require that GUZ be more responsive to their email.

Exactly, I agree the call center was just a source of mis-information or NON-Information that you got to pay for.

I know. The call center was a complete ripoff. We used it twice, both times it was for general questions (like when we couldn't get the police cert.) and they were always like, "You should prepare what you can, you need to talk to ______, blah, blah, blah".

From the very start, I think we would of bet this outcome... and setting it up in Shanghai and then paying for less info than DOS can give definitely added a lot of confusion
