Hi Niall I followed the procedure in the doc ID you refer to. As I say there was no obvious option on the menu to deal with an open SR. Here is the list (Abbreviated a little) 1 Software version updates product availability or license information 2 Purchase new licenses 3 MOS access and navigation 4 Support contact inactive CSI 5 sublicenses (You have to send an email) 6 Hold if your call does not related to any of the above categories I held. The menu choices were repeated. I selected option 3 and asked that my SR be escalated. The escalation status on my SR is still "Never Escalated" This was on Friday. I note that the call also refers to updating the SR. I have tried this in the past (Several years ago) and the call was never escalated, even though I complained every time I updated the SR. I was rather relived when Howard posted, because I thought it was just me experiencing deteriorating support from Oracle. Presumably you get better support than me. I am interested in what I can do to improve the support I get. Cheers PaulH
