Title: How long does CAP Helpdesk take to respond to a query?
Post by: Holding Pattern on February 19, 2016, 09:36:11 PM
I'm now on day 13 without a response to a helpdesk ticket.

I've had various dealings with Helpdesk in the past and on one of those it took 2+ weeks to resolve an issue that one of my cadets was having with online testing. In any case, 13 days with no contact is way too long.. I would have sent a second request after 4 or 5 days. My advice, send a second request to them, if that doesnt work, maybe try getting them on the phone.

Good luck, hope this helps.

I've had one in for about two weeks. In the first six hours after I put it in, it was assigned and reassigned to three different people - and I got an email announcing this - but since then it's been sitting dormant.

I had a ticket put in when one of my o-pilots couldn't award a cadet for a syllabus flight for some reason. It was answered within a week, but the actual resolution took a few more weeks as the problem escalated through the echelons. I'm not sure how HelpDesk is set up...would it be okay to 're-ping' them or would that just end up 'resetting the clock', so to speak?

Another question: Who staffs the helpdesk?
