9 days and counting since i got locked out

Thanks for the advice - i am now on complaint raise number 4 so hopefully someone somewhere will pick the issue up and get it resolved. The frustration is not only having to wait so long for a resolution and bearing all the challenges that the wait entails its the feeling of hopelessness in not being able to deal with someone who can actually get something done. The chat line staff simply take you through a scripted response, tell you that someone has raised a ticket but that someone else has cancelled it and that they will raise another. I can see this going on for weeks. I was offered £20 as recompense but told them i dont want it, i just want my phone to work!

Appreciate your help

Thanks again - maybe i need to get into an apple store as its the phone that's locked - new phone after years of having a company phone and in my stupidity i used the wrong password once too often.

ID can unlock it, they said in 3 to 5 days, but that was 9 days ago. The technical team need to do it but for some reason the customer service team who i am dealing with every day, keep raising complaints and action tickets that the technical team either ignore, don't get or cant be bothered dealing with.

Its literally a 2 minute job for the technical team but you cant contact them direct, the service team have refused to let me contact a manager or involve a manager and one would have thought an internal e mail or phone call would get the job done but thats obviously far too simple a solution

I have even though of going in to town and trying a phone unlocking service?

Thanks once more

Hi all - appreciate all that tried to help. The chat line support for 10 long days was consistently appalling, slow and unhelpful. On the 11th day, after being told for 10 that the issue was being dealt with, a ticket was raised, a complaint raised again and again I was eventually told they couldn’t reset the phone and I needed to visit an Apple Store or a phone unlocking specialist. Basically their incompetence lost me ten days use of my phone - not life threatening but stress inducing and annoying in the extreme. It’s now unlocked and I can save an hour a day of wasted time on the ID chat

thanks again for the advice and help and I hope someone from ID picks this up and adds it to the training of the poorly trained support team 

Kash - i would like to escalate this as i wasted so much time and effort and lost the use of my phone due to your organisations incompetence. Not sure what else i need to provide but i have several of the very long transcripts from the chat line plus there are complaints raised on your system
