How can I escalate a support request beyond the in-effective first tier?
How can I escalate a support request beyond the in-effective first tier?
If you demand (do it "firmly but not harsh") escalation after you found the first tier unhelpful, they may escalate it.
That said, you should try to get help from the first tier first. Not all of them only find answer and blindly quote answers from their KB.
Also, I know some outsourced support providers have internal metrics on percentage of cases that needs to be escalated. So if you're unlucky they may try to swing you away even on cases where escalation is genuinely needed.
Good luck.
Thank you. Are you aware of HOW to escalate?
Just tell them you want them to.
They will if they can, and sometimes they'll directly offer to escalate if they can't solve your problem.
The only problem is, if they are unable to solve your problem and they "can't" escalate, possibly nothing you can do to make it happen.
Depending on which company the support of your region is offered, maybe you can try ask the CS to switch to another one if they can't solve it. I don't know, just a guess.
@MattSully-9855 Apologies for all the inconvenience caused!!!
Assuming from your query that you are talking about Azure Support you can correct me if I am wrong.
Now there are different kind of Support Plans in place you can make use of. More info here.
Considering the scenario you mentioned where you are not getting the required help and you want to escalate it. Now when it comes to basic tier as mentioned by @cheong00 above you can ask the Engineer to escalate internally if you want it. They do have that internal system to escalate which should work for you.
Another tier is the Premier one which works on same mechanism. Customer with Premier account have Account Managers as well which can help you to escalate the whole process to get the required help.
There is no external process as such where you can escalate but internally it is possible. I will reach out to you separately and will try to help you to get it escalated internally.
Hope it helps!!!
