I fully agree.

It took a day and a 1/2 - but my issue was eventually forwarded to an
appropriate support member at adobe.

He is being extremely helpful - and committed - my last email from him
yesterday was sent @ 23:59 - and he has responded to all my emails very
quickly.

The issue I had was that (understandably) macrodobe does not post the email
addresses of their top CF support guru's online - and that you have to make
the initial request through their web app - which is (was?) broken.

The process I had to go through, was as follows:

   - Enter email into adobe web app - recieve "Page does not exist error"
   - Spend 20 mins trying to navigate through the adobe automated call
   terminator (I couldn't find any way of speaking to a real person on the (uk)
   support line)
   - Fool the main automated call redirector into thinking I might
   actually want to buy something (If I had been I definately didn't want to at
   this stage!) - and actually got a real person to speak to in sales. He
   gave me a number, which he said was the correct number for CF support
   - I called this number, and explained my situation to the receptionist
   - She sounded confused, and forwared me to an extension where she said
   somone should be able to help me
   - Redirected call went directly to somones voicemail
   - Eventually I managed to naviaget my way out of the mailbox back to a
   (different) receptionist
   - She forwarded my call directly to somone else (without any
   explaination to them who I was)
   - This person had no idea why my call had been directed to him, but he
   took down my details, and promised to find the relevant person(s)
   - I was emailed back within 30 mins, with a link back to the
   coldfusion support site (that I had been on a few hours before and was
   broken!)
   - I responded that the site was broken etc. etc.
   - He responded that I should send the email to him, and he would try
   and get it forwarded to the correct department
   - Within 20 minutes he called me back to say he had passed the
   information on, and that I should be contacted shortly
   - 14:35 the following day I had an urgent email from an adobe suppot
   rep (Sr Technical Support Engineer: FLEX / ColdFusion / JRun)
   - From that point on I have recieved the most helpful, friendly
   support I have ever recieved from a software company - no complaints at all
   - (esp. if / when the issue gets resolved!)

Cheers

Dan.
